Governor Simon Lalong of Plateau state who tested positive for Coronavirus one week ago, has recovered from the noble virus 

The Governor’s negative status was revealed to him on Wednesday night after he took a test. 

Lalong’s spokesman, Dr. Makut Simon Macham disclosed this in a statement released on Thursday December 24 and also called on residents of Plateau State to take the pandemic very seriously by observing all protocols for prevention of infection and transmission.

In his words, the governor stated ; 

“Having contacted the virus and undergone treatment myself, I wish to reiterate that COVID-19 is not a death sentence as early detection helps to address it and reduce chances of death.

” We should not stigmatise against anyone who tests positive or is suspected of having the disease. Rather, such people should serve as motivation for others to voluntarily test in order to improve the safety of all.”
