Osun State officials manning the Coronavirus Isolation Centre in Ejigbo were, yesterday, thrown into confusion when some patients, who had tested positive allegedly escaped from the facility.
News had filtered that six Coronavirus positive patients escaped from the centre, despite heavy security presence. Their names and phone numbers were released in a statement that was not signed by any government official.
An official statement by the Osun State Government later confirmed that only one of the patients escaped from the isolation centre and search was engaged leading to his discovery and arrest.
