The Chief of Staff to President has arrived Lagos from Fct in an Air ambulance to continue his treatment

The Chief of Staff to President Muhammadu Buhari, Abba Kyari, has arrived at Lagos in an Air ambulance to continue his treatment after testing positive for coronavirus. Kyari, last night, said he left Abuja for Lagos to do additional tests and observation.

The President’s Chief of Staff said the decision he took based on medical advice was also a precautionary measure. Kyari said in a letter that he made his personal care arrangements to avoid further burdening the public health system, which faces so many pressures.

President Buhari, Vice President Yemi Osinbajo, many governors, ministers and other top government functionaries had mingled with Kyari shortly before he tested positive for the coronavirus (COVID-19).

Kyari, who returned to Nigeria from Germany on March 14, had participated in several state functions and unofficial engagements that attracted prominent personalities.

Meanwhile, all those who have been exposed to the President’s Chief of Staff have been on self-isolation, according to presidential sources last Tuesday.

Daily Trust learnt that all the staff of Kyari were tested for coronavirus last Wednesday.
