\n
A suspected coronavirus patient, identified as Vincent Prosper, has been<\/div>\n
\n
declared wanted by the Abia State government.<\/p>\n

Commissioner for Information, Chief John Okiyi, who disclosed this in a
\nstatement, said the suspected patient sneaked into Abia from a
\nneighbouring state.<\/p>\n

He said, “Abia State Ministry of Health in partnership with the State
\nInter-Ministerial Committee on COVID-19 has declared one Vincent
\nProsper, who sneaked into Abia State from a neighboring state, wanted.”<\/p>\n

The Commissioner said Prosper was last seen around 153, Azikiwe Road,
\nAba and urged anyone with useful information on his whereabouts not to
\nhesitate to contact the State Commissioner for Health or call 0700 2242
\n362.<\/p>\n

He also urged those who may have had contact with the suspected patient
\nto call 0700 2242 362, without delay.<\/p>\n

Residents of the state have continued to lament over the porosity of
\nmost of Abia’s borders with her neigbours as policemen allegedly collect
\nvarious sums of money to allow movement of people.<\/p>\n

Sources hint policemen and soldiers between N1,000 and N2,000, to allow
\npeople access the border areas.<\/p>\n

The influx of people especially from the Abia border with Akwa Ibom
\nstate have continued despite Governor Okezie Ikpeazu warning to security
\nagencies to\u00a0 guard the boundary areas.<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
