Abia State Governor, Dr Okezie Ikpeazu, has directed all members of the State Inter-ministerial Committee on COVID-19, and those of the Executive Council who might have recently come in contact with the late Commissioner for Environment, Dr. Solomon Ogunji, to immediately undergo COVID-19 tests and isolate themselves thereafter pending the outcome of the tests.
This is following the outcome of tests conducted on close family members of the late member of the State Executive council (Exco) and member of the Inter-ministerial Committee on COVID-19.
A release signed by the Commissioner for Information, Chief John Okiyi Kalu, said Governor Ikpeazu who is still in mourning will also subject himself to all other necessary protocols as he has directed his Exco members including the Deputy Governor to do.
The release called on all Abians to continue to observe relevant regulations issued by the government and health authorities to stem the spread of the disease.
