I tested negative for Coronavirus, says Garba Shehu

Senior Special Assistant to the President on Media and Publicity, Mr Garba Shehu, has just announced his coronavirus test result.

It is negative.

“My test proved negative for the virus. Alhamdu Lilah! Notwithstanding, I advise everyone that we continue the isolation and work from home”, he tweeted.

Shehu went into self-isolation on Monday after the Chief of Staff to the President, Mr Abba Kyari’s test was confirmed positive.

The spokesman and Kyari share the same office floor at the State House. Besides, he frequents Kyari’s office to clarify issues on a daily basis.

I think it is only fair that I ease the fears of my friends and relations with whom I made recent contacts about the coronavirus. Fake news media had said all sorts of rubbish about me and the President I work for.
