Yemi Osinbajo, vice-president, has tested negative for
coronavirus (COVID-19).
Osinbajo has been in self-isolation as a precaution against
the disease.
On Monday, It was reported that Abba Kyari, chief of staff
to the president, tested positive for the disease.
The COVID-19 status of Kyari led to suggestions that other
members of the federal executive council (FEC) should take precaution.
Only one seat separates Kyari and Osinbajo inside the
council chambers where FEC meetings are held.
In a terse message, Laolu Akande, media aide of the
vice-president, said Osinbajo had undergone test for COVID-19 and that the
result is negative.
”Good morning sirs and ma: have been inundated with calls on
whether indeed the VP had undergone a COVID19 test and the outcome. Yes he has
and results negative. An official tweet would follow. Thanks,” he said.
President Muhammadu Buhari was also reported to have tested
negative for the virus.
