Kwara State Technical Committee on COVID-19 has confirmed two separate cases of COVID-19 in the state. One is the wife of the UITH patient, a UK returnee, who died last Thursday and the other is another UK returnee.

This statement, according to Rafiu Ajakaye, press secretary to the governor as well as spokesman for Covid-19 Technical Committee, was issued at 18:33pm, a few minutes after the government received official confirmation of test results from the Nigeria Centre for Disease Control (NCDC) Test Centre in Ibadan.

Ajakaye said the government would address a news briefing tomorrow morning at 11am to give details and further measures now being taken to tackle the development.
