Nigeria's first coronavirus case came on flight via Istanbul, went to Ogun state: Lagos health commission

LAGOS - Nigeria’s first confirmed coronovirus case entered the country on a Turkish Airlines flight that traveled via Istanbul, the Lagos State Commissioner for Health told a news conference on Friday.

The man, who traveled from Milan, Italy, and landed on the evening of Feb. 24, spent the night in a hotel near the airport, and continued to his place of work in neighboring Ogun state, Commissioner Akin Abayomi said. He was treated on the evening of Feb. 26 at his company’s medical facility before health practitioners there called government biosecurity officers, who transferred him on Feb. 27 to a containment facility in Yaba, Lagos.Reporting By Nneka Chile, writing by Libby George

zizoo9 turkey spread viruses and terrorism only

Actually, he originated his trip from Milan, Italy. LNCtoday

a passanger coming from milan! and he is italian citizen as officers says!

abdullahsarki21 Air travel is the leading cause of this fast spread. But airline business is a big hub that can't be paused or suspended for such a Global emergency. Invariably, world business hub would be on pause through it. It's a Catch-22 situation.

OMG!!! This will be a mess. How will Nigeria handle this? Most facilities are ill equipped to deal with this when it starts to spread. It will not be good.

Where was he before that? Need to track back 2 to 3 weeks.

How can Nigeria have accessible coronavirus tests and the US CDC has only sent at 299 nationwide? Trump Coverup!

Turkish airways continues to fly between Iran and Turkey and that is a possibility where the virus came from. The same thing will happen to Iraq Airways that fly multiple daily flights from to Iran.

Your problem is corona or Turkey? We still do not have any case in Turkey.

Ajarncom hmmm Turkey.

It was the flight from Italy to Nijeria, via istanbul airport.
