Kwara State Deputy Governor and Chairman of the Technical Committee on Coronavirus, Mr Kayode Alabi has tested negative to COVID-19.

According to his Chief Press Secretary Modupe Joel, the deputy Governor took the test yesterday along with all his staff, as part of measures to curb the spread of the disease.

Joel said the results of the tests of staff of the Deputy Governor's Office are being awaited.

Mr Alabi, therefore, urged the public to take responsibility and obey all the safety protocols to contain the virus.
