Infection spreads to 11 Ondo councils

ELEVEN local government areas in Ondo State have been affected by COVID-19 pandemic.

The affected councils are Akure South (22), Odigbo (three), Owo (three), Ose (three), Akure North (two), Ondo West (five), Okitipupa (two), Akoko South East (one), Ile-Oluji/Okeigbo (one) and Ifedore (one).

Governor Oluwarotimi Akeredolu, who gave the figures at a news conference in Akure, said the increasing infection rate called for concern and that worse days are approaching faster than anticipated.

He regretted that measures put in place by his administration were not properly complied with.

The governor said the curfew imposed in the state remained between 7pm and 7am.

He ordered the closure of sports viewing centres until further notice and urged religious leaders to adhere to COVID-19 protocols.
