The Chairman, Nigerian Medical Association (NMA), Sokoto state chapter, Dr Sani Abubakar, has tested positive for Coronavirus.
Abubakar disclosed this via his social media platforms on Tuesday.
”One of my unpleasant responsibilities is when I have to break bad news to my highly cherished brethren. It became worse now that it is about me.
”I have been tested and confirmed positive for COVID-19 and I have commenced treatment, and currently, I am clinically stable,” Abubakar said.
Abubakar added that he had no travel history or contact with any confirmed or suspected case so far.
”I have been in isolation and suspended physical contact with family, friends and associates since I was pronounced a suspected case,” he said.
