Kaduna state governor, Nasir El-Rufai, has cleared the air regarding speculations about his COVID-19 status, by announcing that he is still positive for coronavirus.

Shortly after chairing the Kaduna State Executive Council meeting, Governor El-Rufai via his official Twitter handle, said, “I haven’t been cleared of COVID-19 yet and I will personally announce when confirmed negative. Ignore all fake news even if you like it”.

The governor tested positive for the virus in March and is yet to recover more than two weeks after.
