COVID-19: Eleven days after sitting with Bauchi state governor, Obiano goes into self-isolation

 Governor Willie Obiano of Anambra state has gone into self isolation.

This followed the Council of States meeting 11 days ago in Abuja where Obiano sat side by side with the Bauchi State governor, Senator Bala Mohammed who has since tested positive to the Coronavirus.

Officials of the Anambra state government have also noted that the governor’s self isolation does not imply that the governor has been infected with the virus, stressing that because he sat side by side with the Bauchi state governor in the meeting does not translate to him contracting the virus.

Speaking during the official donation of the sum of N28.5 million by the United Bank for Africa (UBA) to the Anambra state government in support of the fight against the COVID 19 spread in the state, the Chief Of Staff to the governor, Mr Primus Odili noted that he was the first person to meet with the governor when he returned from Abuja adding that ever since, the governor voluntarily opted to go into self isolation.

Odili further explained that the governor has been discharging his constitutional duties as the governor and is not in any way quarantined.

Secretary to the State Government (SSG) Professor Solo Chukwuzubelu said that the governor is hale and hearty and has been communicating with him.

The SSG who said the Governor has nothing to hide declared that Anambra state needs as much as N2 billion to tackle the spread of the virus in the state.

 He eulogized UBA for their donation to the state.
