The wife of Comptroller-General of Immigration, Muhammed Babandede, has tested negative for coronavirus.
Her result aroused scientific curiosity and raise eye brows regarding our understanding of COVID-19 and the infection modes, especially after her husband returned positive.
Mr Babandede travelled to the United Kingdom with his wife and they returned together last week Sunday.
However, surprisingly, Mrs Babandede tested negative, raising eyebrows as to what exactly transpired in the UK.
“Today, I tested positive for COVID-19. I have been on self-isolation since my return from UK on Sunday 22nd of this month with British Airways in Lagos,” the Immigrations boss said.
“I urge my loved ones, Immigration Officers and Nigerians to pray for me and all those affected.”
He added, “It is a very difficult time but we can’t change what God destined for us.
“I urge officers to continue working with my able Deputy to further move our Service to another level. As advised by NCDC, I am totally isolated.”
The Nigeria Centre for Disease Control, on Saturday night, announced that Nigeria’s confirmed cases is now 97 – with the figure expected to reach a century today.
