8733 cases of coronavirus in Nigeria
Discharged: 2501
Deaths: 254
Kogi state which has been free of coronavirus all this while due to refusal of the governor to allow NCDC do testing in the state has finally recorded 2 index cases. They have been reported to be undergoing treatment in one of the state isolation centres in Lokoja.
Edo, Katina and Rivers have experienced steady rise in coronavirus cases in the past 2 weeks. Perhaps, a breakdown of cases across the states in Nigeria will make this clearer.
