They are Edo, Lagos, Ogun, Kano and Abuja, the Federal Capital Territory (FCT).
NCDC said one was confirmed positive “index case” with no death.
The Director General of NCDC, Dr Chikwe Ihekweazu, gave the update in a chat with NAN on Sunday in Abuja.
Ihekweazu said that a total of 219 contacts were identified, including contacts from hotel, workplace and healthcare workers.
“No new contacts have been reported in Lagos and Ogun states,” Ihekweazu stressed.
He added that the confirmed case was clinically stable at the designated treatment facility for COVID-19 at the Infectious Disease Hospital (IDH) Yaba, Lagos.

ReplyDeleteSEXYHIPS
And I heard last night that it was a rumour
ReplyDeleteIt’s not my dear. A friend works with CDC and she has been hinting some of us about it but due to legal measures, she can’t give out the details.
DeleteIt is real and spreading but no record of death yet.
Because we are the children of the most high GOD, sickness or disease have no dwelling place in our lives in JESUS name.. Amen.
ReplyDeleteI don’t believe this, Nigerian govt just wants to make money from this!!!
ReplyDelete😂 you kno,w right?
DeleteMoney from who, from where and how? Why are you people so in love with negativity? Why has pessimism taken over sound judgement in your brains like this? So all the other countries that are battling with the virus are joking? Or do you prefer Nigeria to trade places with some of them? See, this pessimism and stubborn negativity will destroy your chances for a better life if you keep it up. You know right?
DeleteI don't know why I find this hard to believe...
ReplyDeleteWhat do they mean by suspected cases? Do they have it or not?!
ReplyDeleteExactly @09:13
ReplyDeleteHow do they confirm these cases. Where they tested? At which centre & with what equipment? They shouldn't put fear on people please.
ReplyDeleteExactly!!!! It's still a rumour jare
Deleteyou put fear in people not on people
DeleteThese are suspected cases. The only confirmed case is that Italian. I was beginning to wonder if the testing kits were 'original' because it's strange that we are still on number 1. May God continue to protect us.
ReplyDeleteI know you don't believe in this country but if the equipment for testing is not right like you mentioned why are all those tested and are negative not sick in their homes or probably dead of the virus. Trust your government for once. WHO would have raise an alarm instead of praising Nigeria.
DeleteTrust which govt? Lol
Deletechukwu biko save us
ReplyDeleteIdiota.We are a joke to this government. Same set of people that said it's all negative.smh.
ReplyDeleteEnglish language.
ReplyDeleteThere’s still only one confirmed positive... that’s the “index case”.
Index means first, so that case refers to the Italian guy.
All others are suspected cases, they’ll probably quarantine them till they’re determined to be negative.
Stop with the panic y’all and please READ TO UNDERSTAND!
Next thing now, people will start drinking salt water again. SMH
Stella, your headline is misleading and sensational oh, you know people don’t read. They will carry that headline and run with it.
Saying that covid19 cases were IDENTIFIED means they were confirmed but that’s not what the article says. It only says these are people who may have had contact directly or indirectly with the Italian.
Pls post this oh, to avoid widespread panic, your blog has serious reach. Thank you.
P.S,when Nigeria say "suspected cases" you should know that they came late to the party. We have every right to panic this is Nigeria chile.
DeleteThis people are trying so hard to cash out from this virus. But God knows the best for us.
ReplyDeleteWhich people are trying to cash out. Continue to listen to the likes of FFK that play politics with everything in this nation. So doing the right thing is about cashing out. Do you realize how many are dying in the world per day and this is a virus that respects no one, both rich and innocent poor people.
Deletekeep deceiving yourself. Denying the virus does not cancel its existence
DeleteWays to borrow more money,how come the Italian name was not mention,these people are broad day light robbers
ReplyDeleteWhich country have you seen releasing the names of their patients. Think before you write.
Deletethey must release the name before you believe or what. you don't know about HIPPA codes. Naija people forever ignorant and blind stubborn goats. until you use strong head infect more people because of una stupidity abi. smart but not intelligent indeed
DeleteGod please whether rumor or not please protect your people
ReplyDeleteIs this a joke?
ReplyDeleteHow much money just to ruin the reputation of this country?
There is no COVID19 in Nigeria! Take this to the bank!
Which bank o oga. Stop writing what you don't know.
DeleteOkpoko. If you like, dont wash your hands
Deleteare u telling yourself that to make yourself feel relaxed or u wanna keep on lying to yourself and staying blind to the truth. ignorance and self deceit makes this thing spread more. Ask the people of Wuhan. your govt is being open with you unlike their own and you are not taking precaution
DeleteI hope its rumour please.
ReplyDeleteStella this headline is misleading o, you know plenty people don't read. Only 1 case is confirmed others are suspected cases.
ReplyDeleteStale news. Nigerians keep sleeping until the case gets worse. People like kemi olunloyo have been hinting that some coded cases of covid 19 have been discovered in french, italian and german expats but are being kept quiet. Even if kemi no talk, The govt. is shielding the true numbers from the public and Nigerians are swallowing the lies claiming Sanwo Olu has it under control. one guy been dey toast me and he told me I should not worry jo that Sanwo Olu has it under control. I just stylishly distanced myself from the guy. I can't Shout. Sanwo Olu ko. Ji owo Olu ni. naija people put so much trust in a govt that has disappointed them in the past sha. okay na.
ReplyDeleteYou don't wanna believe covid 19 can affect nigerians, better wake up, start observing precaution and don't become the first case that proves that belief wrong
May God protect us all o.I hope this is not true abeg
