11 days after testing positive for Covid-19 and went on isolation, the Governor of Ekiti State, Kayode Fayemi, said he is negative.
The Governor who is also the Chairman of the Nigeria Governors’ Forum revealed his latest health status on Twitter on Saturday morning and also appreciated those who stood by him while battling with the deadly virus.
“After 11 days in isolation, I received news that my Covid 19 repeat test came back negative. My sincere gratitude goes to God Almighty, my family, my medical team and all well wishers for the prayers and solidarity. We must continue to do all we can to tackle the pandemic. JKF”
The Attorney-General and Commissioner for Justice in the Ekiti, Olawale Fapohunda, and no fewer than 10 aides to Fayemi had also tested positive for COVID-19.
Fayemi had in July joined the list of state governors and other high profile Nigerians who have tested positive for coronavirus. They include the governors of Kaduna, Oyo, Bauchi and Delta states.
Many of them have since recovered from the virus while few others died of the disease.
