Senator Tella while reacting to the status of Governor Mohammed , explained that the NCDC was yet to disclose whether the governor tested negative or not and warned the public to avoid relying on social media to get such information.
According to him, the governor is in good health and even participated in a conference with other governors at the Governors’ Forum. through Skype chat.
Tella revealed that state had made huge progress in tracing the 305 contacts following the outbreak of the deadly disease in the state but more positive results were expected
“We have listed all these contacts and they have been contacted. The government is not satisfied with the time it takes to get the test done, because you have to take it to Abuja.
“All the other tests are done in Abuja, then you have to sit and wait for the results to come out. We are prepared and we are planning to have a test centre here in Bauchi. We will soon start a test centre in Bauchi whereby you do not have to go to Abuja to have the test done”
“We will do all our testing here and we will not leave any stone unturned in trying to ensure that we have that test centre in Bauchi.”
On the three new cases in Bauchi which was first announced by the NCDC in Abuja, the deputy governor explained that centre is the organ that has to capacity to test for CoronaVirus in the state.
“They have the capacity to test for it is when they tell us that we have a new case, we do whatever the protocol requires of us and we are doing whatever we can to abide by the protocol of the NCDC,” he said.
