Some 10 staffers working at the Lagos State House, the official residence of the governor, have tested positive for coronavirus.
Lagos Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu and his wife have however not been diagnosed with the virus after three consecutive tests, according to the state's health commissioner Akin Abayomi.
The 10 staffers are receiving treatment in isolation centres, Prof Abayomi tweeted, adding that all staffers at the governor's residence were tested.
However, 10 persons associated with Lagos State House in Marina have tested positive to #COVID19.
