It will be recalled that the governor has been on self-isolation since Tuesday having come into contact with two people who tested positive to the virus.

Daily Trust reported that the governor had had meetings with some other governors in recent weeks, including Bala Mohammed of Bauchi State who tested positive for COVID-19 and is now undergoing treatment.

Kayode, therefore, advised his colleagues from the 35 states of the federation to test for the virus and go into self-isolation.
