Secretary to the government of the federation, Boss Mustapha and wife have gone into self isolation, as some immediate family members tested positive to Covid 19.

This was contained in a statement he personally signed on Sunday in Abuja.

The SGF is the head of the federal government’s body saddled with the responsibility of managing the Covid-19 facts and figures, as well as distributing Palliatives.

The statement reads “I would like to inform the general public that some members of my household tested positive for COVID-19 yesterday evening.

“Although they are currently asymptomatic, they have been isolated, and are receiving care in one of the government treatment centres.

“My wife and I tested negative, but will remain in self-isolation and work from home according to protocols by the health authorities.

“I would like to remind all Nigerians that COVID-19 is real. As the Nigeria Centre for Disease Control (NCDC) announced last week, we are recording an increase in cases across several states.

“Please stay safe and protect yourself. Adhere to all public health and safety measures so that we do not lose the gains we have made in the fight against COVID-19.

“As a family, we covet your prayers.

“Please Take Responsibility for yourself and to protect our country!”

In Lagos, Governor Jide Sanwo-Olu, who isolated himself a couple of days ago because a close aide of his tested positive for COVID-19, has also been confirmed positive. It is not yet known if his wife, Ibijoke, a medical doctor, or any other member of his family or close aide tested positive.
