…. leaves isolation center with family
The Chief Judge of the Federal High Court of Nigeria, Justice
John Tsoho, and members of his immediate family have tested
negative to the dreaded Coronavirus otherwise known as
COVID-19.
After undergoing two COVID -19 tests, the results turned out
negative for all his immediate family members.
A statement by acting Information Officer of the court, Mrs
Catherine Oby Nwandu explained that the first test was done at the
beginning of the 14-day self isolation, while the confirmatory test
came thereafter.
She revealed that the two tests were conducted by the Nigeria
Centre for Disease Control NCDC officials.
The Information Officer hinted that the decision of the Chief
Judge to go on self isolation was preventive rather than curative
because a close aide in his office tested positive to COVID- 19,
hence the precautionary measures that followed.
“The said aide has since been discharged from an NCDC Isolation
Centre and is now doing well.
“The Hon. Chief Judge expresses deep appreciation to his
colleagues, court staff, friends and extended family members, who
kept faith with him for their prayers.
” He prays for showers of blessing upon all people of
goodwill.”
