In a statement on Wednesday in Benin, Special Adviser to the Governor on Media and Communication Strategy, Mr. Crusoe Osagie revealed that the governor has sent in his samples for testing.
According to him, Obaseki met Senator Mohammed at the Nigeria Governors Forum (NGF) and National Economic Council (NEC) meetings so there is a possibility that he could be infected.
