The Vice President of Nigeria, Yemi Osinbajo has gone into self-isolation
following the positive test of President Muhammadu Buhari’s Chief of Staff, Abba
Kyari, for coronavirus.
This was made known on
Tuesday by Osinbajo’s Senior Special Assistant on Media and Publicity,
Laolu Akande.
Akande said his principal is
self-isolating in accordance with the “protocols” of the Nigeria Centre for
Disease Control.
Recall that Abba Kyari had tested positive for Coronavirus however President Buhari tested negative.
The NCDC informed the
president on the outcome of his negative result on Tuesday morning.
Mr Kyari visited Germany
and Egypt and only returned this week. Egypt has so far registered 327 cases of
the respiratory disease caused by the virus, including 14 fatalities, its
health ministry said on Sunday.
The Chief of Staff returned exactly a
week later on Saturday, March 14th, but did not show any symptoms.
He reportedly had a
meeting on containing the COVID-19 pandemic in Nigeria all through Sunday,
where he reportedly started to cough.
Kyari then voluntarily
submitted himself for testing and was informed of his positive status to the
virus.
