Sanwo-Olu Isolates As Second COVID-19 Wave Bites Hard

Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu of Lagos State has gone into self-isolation, the state government said on Friday as it warned of a spike in the COVID-19 pandemic in the country.

Lagos Commissioner for Health, Prof. Akin Abayomi who disclosed this in a statement titled, ‘Sanwo-Olu goes into self-isolation’ said a close aide of the governor tested positive for the disease forcing the governor to self-isolate.

The statement read, “The governor will go into self-isolation immediately, after one of his close aides tested positive for COVID-19 yesterday (10th of December).

“Mr. Governor and other members of his team will be tested by the Lagos State biobank today but will remain in isolation until the results of the tests are available.

“We are seeing slightly increasing number of COVID-19 positive cases in clusters in Lagos and all Lagosians should adhere to the prescribed advisories of safe distancing, good hand and respiratory hygiene and avoidance of unnecessary gatherings.

“This is not the first time Mr. 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 development comes in the wake of fears that a second wave of the pandemic has now hit the country.
