Don’t Panic, I’m In Stable Condition — Ikpeazu Assures Abians

The Abia State Governor, Okezie Ikpeazu has assured the people of the State that he remains stable and in high spirits.

The Governor whose second Covid-19 test returned positive on Sunday said that his decision to present himself for a second test was to remove all doubts about his status, after testing negative initially.

“As your Governor, I have a responsibility to do what is right and keep our people fully updated about my health status”, the Governor stated in a release by his Chief Press Secretary, Onyebuchi Ememanka.

The Governor restated his stance that testing positive to the virus is not a death sentence and appealed to the people of the State not to panic but continue to take issues surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic with seriousness and take all necessary precautions in line with the protocols enunciated by the NCDC.
