The Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC) on
Saturday said there was no mass outbreak of Coronavirus infection at its
facility in Garki, FCT.
The corporation made the clarification in a statement signed by its spokesman, Dr Lennie Obateru, in Abuja.
He said that the Corporation was aware of all the actions taken by
the Nigeria Centre for Disease Control (NCDC) to tackle the singular
case, which for now, had remained an isolated incident.
He explained that the said case, involving a non-member of staff of
the corporation, had to do with the individual who had just returned
from the United Kingdom and developed symptoms of the disease.
”His case was said to have been confirmed positive by the NCDC after
undergoing a laboratory test and in line with NCDC approved protocol.
” All residents of the affected apartment were moved out and placed
in isolation, while officials of NCDC undertook disinfection of the flat
and adjoining areas to eliminate the chances of community infection,”
he said.
Obateru said that the NNPC had embarked on public awareness within
NNPC and beyond including sharing with the residents of the Estate
guidelines on successful self-supervised isolation.
He added that awareness on how to ensure strict adherence to all NCDC
prescribed safety measures designed to tackle the COVID-19 was also
created. (NAN)
