Coronavirus scare in the country hit a frightening phase on Wednesday, March 18, as fives more cases of the global epidemic were reported , barely twenty-four hours after the Ministry of Health announced the third case. The new developments were confirmed by the
special adviser to President Muhammadu Buhari on new media, Tolu Ogunlesi. In a series of tweet,
Ogunlesi said four of the victims are Nigerians who
just came from the United States of America and
United Kingdom. The presidential aide also claimed that one of the
four new Nigerian victims is a 6-week old baby —
the youngest victim reported so far. He added that the fifth victim is a "foreign national
who came in through the land border — the first
case of infection via land border in Nigeria."
Meanwhile, Legit.ng notes that coronavirus test has been carried out in 10 states since February 27
when the first case was reported.
Although some suspected cases tested negative,
the last five days have seen the country dive into
the red zone as more cases- confirmed or
suspected- were reported in some states. And as it stands, here are the states with confirmed
and suspected cases of the Covid-19 epidemic.
