This new directive is to take effect by midnight of Tuesday, May 11, 2021.
With the restrictions imposed, mass gatherings in public spaces have been restricted to 50 people at any given time.
Access to government institutions would also be denied to anyone not wearing a face mask while government meetings and travels have been limited to the virtual platform.
The government further directed that bars and nightclubs should remain closed and the nationwide curfew will be in force until further notice.
