Following the confirmation of the five new cases of coronavirus, Lagos has 44 while the FCT trails with 14 cases.
Ogun and Oyo States have three cases respectively and Bauchi has two, while Ekiti, Edo, Osun, and Rivers States have one confirmed case each.
Meanwhile, Nigerian music star, David Adeleke, popularly known as Davido has gone into self-isolation.
He took the decision after his fiancée, Chioma, tested positive to coronavirus (COVID-19) shortly after she returned to the country.
Davido, who announced this on Friday via his verified Twitter handle, noted that he recently returned to Nigeria from America after cancelling his tour, while Chioma also came back from London with their baby.
He said although they had no symptoms and were perfectly fine, they decided to take the COVID-19 test on Wednesday along with the close associates they had recent contact with as a result of their travel history.
“Unfortunately, my fiancée’s result came back positive while all 31 others tested have come back negative, including our baby.
“We are, however, doing perfectly fine and she is even still yet to show any symptoms whatsoever,” Davido revealed.

I feel Davido & his crew were irresponsible, he cancelled all his shows in USA, he knew what was going on. Only to come back to Lagos and be travelling everywhere. Chioma got back too and was everywhere with him. God help the poor people that came in contact with them.
