Rotimi Akeredolu
The Governor of Ondo State, Rotimi Akeredolu, has expressed his displeasure at the recklessness of a police officer who tested positive for COVID-19.
The governor, speaking through his official Twitter handle, also blamed the security officers manning the state boundary for the porosity in its entry points.
He said: “Earlier today, I got news of another positive case of #COVID19 admitted to our facility in Akure. The case of this individual who is a police officer is unique. He was tested in Lagos but came to Ondo state while awaiting his results. Upon receiving a positive result he claimed to have returned back to Lagos. According to him, he waited a few days in Lagos to be picked up.

“When this failed, he panicked and rushed back to Akure for treatment. While we appreciate the confidence reposed in our facilities, We do find it most reckless on the part of the officer of the Law to risk the lives of others. I am most disappointed in the level of porosity of the entry points to the state.
“The police officer should know better. I have contacted the commissioner of police to double up on securing our entry points.
The police officer is the fourth person to have contracted the virus in Ondo State.
