Former Executive Director of Sahara Group, Tonye Cole, has self-isolated after being on the same flight with Nigeria’s third index case.
The 30-year-old female patient returned on March 13 after a 10-day stay in London.
She arrived on BA 75 flight with Cole, who confirmed the development on Wednesday.
In a tweet on Wednesday, Cole said he has heeded Lagos State Government’s instruction to self-isolate.
“#workfromhome I was on the BA75 flight of the 13th from London on which a lady tested positive for #COVID19Lagos. We’ve been asked by LSMOH to #selfisolate. I’m grateful to @NCDCgov for measures taken at airports to document all passengers coming into NIGERIA so we’re all safer,” he tweeted.
