Lagos State Governor, Mr. Babajide Sanwo-Olu, has gone into self-isolation, the state government said on Friday.

This was contained in a statement titled ‘Sanwo-Olu goes into self-isolation’ by the Lagos Commissioner for Health, Prof. Akin Abayomi.

He said one of the close aides to Sanwo-Olu tested positive for coronavirus, necessitating the governor to isolate.

However, Abayomi did not state the COVID-19 status of the governor.

The commissioner said Sanwo-Olu had been tested for COVID-19 for at least three times.

Meanwhile, the Nigeria Centre for Disease Control announced 675 new infections in the country on Thursday.
