COVID-19: Another Coronavirus case detected in Abuja as a resident tests positive

An Abuja resident has declared that he has contacted the novel Coronavirus otherwise known as COVID-19.

Salihu Umar who took to his twitter handle to announce this initially said:

Someone on my flight tested positive, that is to say everyone on that flight has been exposed. Although, I’m in self isolation, time to go get tested ASAP.

Salihu came back later with the sad news saying:

“I have just tested positive for COVID19. At the moment, I am still under self-isolation as health personnel make their way to my house for evacuation to Gwagwalada isolation centre. My neighbours and employer have been notified accordingly.”

Although the Nigerian Centre for Disease Control NCDC has yet to react to this but this has further heightened fears that more people may have contacted the virus.
