Lagos State Governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu is set to begin self-isolation, after one of his close aides tested positive for COVID-19, on Thursday.
According to the Commissioner for Health, Prof. Akin Abayomi, the governor and other members of his team will be tested by the State biobank on Friday.
He emphasised that they would remain in isolation until the results of the tests are available.
“We are seeing slightly increasing number of COVID-19 positive cases in clusters in Lagos and all Lagosians should adhere to the prescribed advisories of safe distancing, good hand and respiratory hygiene and avoidance of unnecessary gatherings.
“This is not the first time Mr. Governor is having the COVID-19 test. He has had at least three since May when he announced that 10 of his aides had tested positive for the virus.”
