Confusion hits NCDC camp over wrong report of new case in Ekiti
The Nigeria Center for Disease and Control, NCDC, has again shown it incompetence in the case of Coronavirus in Nigeria.
The centre, few days after clashing with Kano State Government after wrongly reporting five new cases in the state has apologised for confirming a new case of Coronavirus in Ekiti State, whereas there was no case.
NCDC in a post on its Twitter page on Sunday morning, said the report was an error from its verification process.
The tweet read: “Yesterday, we erroneously reported one new case in Ekiti. This was wrong and was caused by an error in the verification process.
“Therefore, as at April 18 2020, there are 541 confirmed cases, 166 discharged and 19 deaths.
“Ekiti state has 3 confirmed cases, not 4.”
