Imo Lawmaker Tests Positive To COVID-19

A member of the Imo State House of Assembly has reportedly tested positive for the novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19) just as a woman who after safely delivering twins has died from complications from the disease.

The Chairman, Task Force on COVID-19 in the state, Professor Maurice Iwu, disclosed this during his weekly press briefing in Owerri.
