The Delta State government has asked the runaway covid-19 patient who was forcefully removed from a treatment centre in Asaba by his relatives to return and complete his treatment because he poses a threat to public health.
Reacting to the incident, the Commissioner For Health, Ononye Mordi expressed shock since the man in question is a senior health officer.
The Government also wants citizens to ensure strict adherence to outlined health protocol to avert community contamination and spread as the lockdown eases.
