The Kwara State Technical Committee on COVID-19 on Monday confirmed two separate cases of COVID-19 in the state.
A statement by the chief press secretary to the governor, Rafiu Ajakaye, said “one is the wife of the UITH patient, a UK returnee, who died last Thursday and the other is another UK returnee.”
Ajakaye said the statement issued at 6:33 pm, was “a few minutes after the government received official confirmation of test results from the Nigeria Centre for Disease Control (NCDC) Test Centre in Ibadan.”
“The government will address a news briefing tomorrow morning at 11 am to give details and further measures now being taken to tackle the development,” he added
