Noel Donjur, Chief of Staff to Plateau State Governor, Simon Lalong, has tested positive for coronavirus (COVID-19).
Commissioner for Information, Dan Manjang, announced this in a statement on Friday.
Mr Lalong had directed that members of the state executive council undergo COVID-19 test after the Commissioner for Commerce and Industry, Abe Aku, tested positive for the virus.
“The outcome of the tests indicate that all other members of the State EXCO tested negative except the Chief of Staff who is asymptomatic and in good condition,” Mr Manjang said.
He also said health officials have commenced treatment for him at one of the isolation centres in the state capital, Jos, while members of his family and other contacts are being traced and tested.
