According to him; “from what is seen so far and with other details available and reported, the trend and pattern of the rise are exponential and pose real danger and threats than ever before.”

The governor said 663 total samples have been collected and 655 total lab results received, adding that the state is currently following 113 contacts.

He said: “What these tell us is that COVID -19 is fully here with us and that community transmission is now a reality.

“In other words, it is a spread by people who have come into contact with those who had earlier been infected.

“This record calls for concern.

“Indeed, worse days seem to be approaching faster than we probably anticipated.

“As a people, we must make a choice now between life and death, between health and wealth and between stability and unhappiness.”

Meanwhile, the governor has announced a ban on all premiership football viewing centres with a promise to revisit earlier regulations concerning market operation.

He said law enforcement agencies and the his task force will ensure full enforcement.
