Delta State Governor, Ifeanyi Okowa, his wife, Edith, and daughter have tested negative to COVID-19. Chief Press Secretary to the Governor, Olisa Ifeajika, made this known in a statement in Asaba on Tuesday. Ifeajika said that other members of the governor’s family also tested negative to the virus.

Recall that the governor and his wife had tested positive for the virus on July 1 and went into isolation for necessary treatment. Their daughter had tested positive to the virus a few days earlier.

According to Ifeajika, “The governor gave God all the glory and praise and expressed appreciation to all Deltans and other Nigerians who interceded for the family in prayers. He appealed to all residents in the state to obey all instructions and regulations targeted at combating and stemming the transmission of COVID-19 in the state”.
