China Civil Engineering Construction Corporation Managing Director Mr. Michael Yigao confirmed on Monday that the 15 Chinese medical experts are in the custody of the firm. The medics arrived in the country on April 8 and went into 14-day seclusion to ascertain their COVID-19 status.
Yigao said: “The team had a telecast meeting with the Minister of Health and some doctors around the country and shared their experience in China on how they’re fighting the virus and the meeting was very positive.“They are here with us and have continued to teach our staff how to protect themselves because protection and prevention are more important than the treatment.
“In a big country like Nigeria, it can be a bit difficult to control a pandemic because you will have to make all the people of such a large country understand that it is a serious and real thing. “Upon request from the Nigerian government, we gave necessary support, like building treatment centres and at the same time delivered some health-related equipment.
