Nigeria’s President, Muhammadu Buhari has tested negative to COVID-19.

This comes as his Chief of Staff Abba Kyari tested positive for the disease.

The test was carried out on the President on Monday by the Nigeria Centre for Disease and Control.

However, fears are emanating that the Chief of Staff, Abba Kyari who has tested positive for the dreaded coronavirus may have transmitted the virus to more people after his return from Germany.

Kyari who represented President Buhari at an event, travelled to Germany on March 7 where he held meetings with Siemens group on the Nigeria electricity expansion programme.

The chief of staff submitted himself voluntarily for testing and was informed of his status on Monday.

He has since then gone into isolation and is receiving treatment.
