A coronavirus patient has been discharged at the Infectious Disease Hospital IDH in Yaba, Lagos, bringing the total discharge patients to 24 in the state.
Lagos state governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu made the disclosure at a press briefing on Saturday.
The identity of the patient remains unknown but the governor expressed optimism that more patients would be discharged soon.
Meanwhile, Sanwo-Olu said the lock down in the state may be extended if the need arises.
He said: “This is just day five. So, in the first 14 days, we still have about eight or nine days to go.
“So, I’m sure that it’s something that all of us, including the federal authorities will be reviewing.
“The lock down was not only a directive of the governor; it was a national decision and it has national backing. So, if there is a need to extend, I can assure you that we will make the call.”
As at 10:30 pm 3rd April, there are 209 confirmed cases of COVID-19, 25 discharged and 4 deaths, according to the Nigerian Centre for Disease Control NCDC.
