Lagos State Governor, Mr. Babajide Sanwo-Olu has gone into self-isolation immediately after one of his close aides tested positive for COVID-19 on Thursday, 10th of December.
Mr. Governor and other members of his team were tested by the Lagos State biobank on Friday, but would remain in isolation until the results of the tests are made available.
In a release by the State’s Honourable Commissioner for Health, Professor Akin Abayomi, “the State is seeing slightly increasing number of COVID-19 positive cases in clusters in Lagos, and therefore urged all Lagosians to adhere to the prescribed advisories of safe distancing, good hand and respiratory hygiene and avoidance of unnecessary gatherings”.
He said “this is not the first time Mr. Governor is having the COVID-19 test. He has had at least three since May 2020 when he announced that 10 of his aides had tested positive for the virus”.
