A group, Conference For Human Right, has raised the alarm concerning the deteriorating health condition of a Delta State-based journalist, Theophilus Onojeghen, who tested positive for COVID-19 last week in Warri.
National Coordinator of the group, Omes Ogedegbe, Esq., in a statement on Monday also accused Okowa of gambling with the lives of residents of the state for cheap political gains. The group also condemned the government for not providing adequate medical kit for COVID-19 health workers as they are being exposed to the virus.
"On Saturday 28th June 2020, Mr Theo became terribly sick and was having difficulty breathing, his wife was forced to raise an alarm and serious pressure was mounted on the NCDC officers who reluctantly arrived two hours later to their home dramatically blaring their sirens in the area for people to notice they were working.
