The NCDC Team has been working very hard with LSMOH and Ogun State Ministry of Health to monitor all contacts of the index case of #COVID19 in Nigeria Our new strategy as recommended by World Health Organization (WHO) will enable us find cases, even if asymptomatic

Today, March 9th, I announced 1 (one) more case of #COVID19 in #Nigeria. To date, there are 2 (two) confirmed cases. The new case is an Ogun State contact of the index case, one of 40 persons in isolation being closely monitored. He is clinically stable. #COVID19Nigeria

I am very proud that my brother and friend Chikwe Ihekweazu, DG of NCDC, was mentioned by name by President Buhari.

Grateful for recognition given to work by NCDC, Federal Ministry of Health, NIGERIA & partners by His Excellency, Muhammadu Buhari during his address to #Nigerians Days ahead will be tough but if we jointly #TakeResponsibility in the fight against #COVID19, we can pull through faster #StrongerTogether
