Abba Kyari’s burial: All Persons who participated have been identified and isolated – FCTA

All those who participated in Abba Kyari

The Health and Human Services Secretariat of the FCT Administration
has announced that all those who participated in the burial ceremony of
President Buhari’s Chief of Staff, Abba Kyari have been identified and
isolated, including the man spotted in a viral video carelessly dumping
his Personal Protective Equipment (PPE).

FCTA authorities who admitted that some of those who participated in
the burial were not properly kitted and also dumped their PPEs
unprofessionally after the burial ceremony, said necessary tests will be
conducted on all those identified to determine their level of exposure
and ensure that they do not infect other people.

According to the Acting Secretary Health and Human Services
Secretariat Dr Mohammed Kawu, the FCTA has also taken steps to ensure
that all future burials of victims of COVID-19 are conducted in line
with protocols established by the Nigerian Centre for Disease Control
(NCDC).

The statement reads;

The Health and Human Services Secretariat of the FCT Administration
has noted with concern the video trending on social media, showing a man
pulling off his Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) unprofessionally
after participating in the burial of the late Chief of Staff to
President Muhammadu Buhari, Malam Abba Kyari, at the Gudu cemetery,
Abuja.

The Public Health Department has since taken necessary action.

The said PPE left over by the individual has been professionally
evacuated and the entire cemetery has been decontaminated. In addition,
all the individuals including the man in question that participated in
the burial and were not properly kitted have been identified and are
being isolated.

Necessary tests will conducted on all of them to determine their
level of exposure and ensure that they do not infect other people.

The Administration has also taken steps to ensure that all future
burials of victims of COVID 19 are conducted in line with protocols
established by the Nigerian Centre for Disease Control (NCDC).

Residents are therefore urged to remain calm and rest assured that
the FCT Administration will continue to do all that is necessary to
curtail and eventually end the spread of the Coronavirus in the FCT.
