One of the suspects arrested in connection with the death of Mrs Funke Olakunrin, a daughter of the Afenifee leader, Pa Reuben Fasoranti, has tested positive for coronavirus.
He is one of the three new cases that Ondo State just recorded.
This was disclosed by Governor Rotimi Akeredolu, via his twitter handle: “We have confirmed three other cases in Ondo State. One of the cases involves one of the recently arraigned suspects in the murder of Mrs Funke Olakunrin, Pa Fasoranti’s daughter.
“The Commissioner of Police has been duly informed and the line tracing of police officers and others in the SARS facility, where he was kept has started and their specimens are being collected.
“The suspect has been isolated from others and will be moved to the IDH for treatment. The commissioner of Police has assured the state that there will be adequate security around the IDH premises to prevent his escape and while on treatment, he will be manacled to the bed.”
