...Take coronavirus seriously, Bauchi gov warns from isolation

Doctors attending to the Chief of Staff to the President, Abba Kyari have obtained his medical records from Wellington Hospital, St. John’s Wood, London.

Kyari, it was learnt, had some other ailments which could hamper his rate of recovery from Covid19.

A source at the Ministry of Health said, “From the information at my disposal, chief’s medical records have been sent via email from Wellington Hospital where he goes for his check-up and also gets his treatment.

“He has some other health conditions which will be kept confidential. We are hoping for the best.”

The Wellington Hospital which is located in North London, is the largest independent hospital in the UK. It offers cardiac services, neurosurgery, liver and HBP medicine, rehabilitation, gynaecology, orthopaedics and other services, according to Wikipedia.

Recall that Kyari was in December 2016 flown from Nigeria to London on emergency and was attended to at Wellington Hospital.

Meanwhile, Bauchi State governor on Wednesday urged Nigerians to take the virus seriously.

The governor stated this while replying a message sent to him by the former Speaker of the House of Representatives, Yakubu Dogara.

An aide to the former Speaker, Turaki Hassan, shared his principal’s message to the Governor and also his response on his Facebook page.

Dogara’s aide quoted him as saying: “My brother, Governor Bala Mohammed, I have tried unsuccessfully to reach you after hearing of the devastating news.

“You, Mallam Abba Kyari and all those affected are in our prayers. May God take control and bring healing like he has done for many. Wishing you all quick recovery.”

In response, Mohammed advised the state residents and Nigerians to take the pandemic seriously and follow medical advice as well as government directives.

No fewer than 27 people in the state have been placed on compulsory self-isolation for a minimum of 14 days to determine their coronavirus status.

This was disclosed by the Disease Control Unit of the Ministry of Health in the state in a circular.
