The Task Force Chairman on Covid -19, who is also the Commissioner for Health, Jafar Muhammed, made the disclosure on Thursday, at the isolation unit of the Kebbi medical centre, Kalgo.

Muhammed said the discharge of the two remaining Covid -19 patients was as a result of the follow up tests conducted on them and the results turned out negative.

The excited Commissioner further announced that following the discharge of the two remaining Covid -19 patients, the state now has no Covid -19 patient at the isolation centre.

While thanking the frontline health workers and the Taskforce team for their dedication and sacrifice, he equally thanked the Kebbi state Governor, Senator Abubakar Atiku Bagudu, for his invaluable support and the provision of an enabling environment for the committee to carry out its work diligently, as well as providing all the equipment needed at the isolation centre.
