Governor Sanwo-Olu goes into self-isolation as aide tests positive to COVID-19

Lagos State Governor, Mr Babajide Sanwo-Olu, has gone into self-isolation after one of his close aides tested positive for COVID-19 on Thursday, December 10, 2020.

A statement by the state Commissioner for Health, Professor Akin Abayomi, the aide, who was not named was said to have tested positive, a development which necessitated the governor proceeding on self-isolation.

The governor and other members of his team will be tested by the Lagos State biobank but will remain in isolation until the results of the test are available.

“This is not the first time the 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,” the commissioner is quoted as saying.
