“Being able to carry out this independent verification will have put to rest this matter once and for all.”
The Commissioner for Health, Dr. Saka Audu, stated yesterday in Lokoja that some individuals were declared COVID-19 positive, even before testing them.
“They claimed the patient was positive but hasn’t been taken to an isolation centre. As at this moment, he is still in the National Hospital. His son, who was also purported to be positive, was asked to go home! He remained with his father in the hospital running errands, going as far as Suleja, in Niger State. Who are we fooling?
He charged Nigerians to start asking NCDC what it stood to gain by manufacturing fictitious figures and attaching them to states and how eager it was to announce confirmed cases.
