The Governor, who doubles as the index case in the state said the State had tested about 400 people and now has three testing centres.

While adding that Kaduna have been successful in closing down the state, in reducing the traffic in, every case in the state has been imported.

Part of the statement reads, “I was the first case, fortunately, I would say, because it served to scare everyone about reality. COVID is real, it’s not a joke. I was the first case, I got it in Abuja and infected four other people, all of us are okay now.”

Meanwhile, Kaduna State has a total of 35 confirmed cases of the disease.
