Nasarawa House of Assembly member dies of COVID-19

Adamu Suleiman, a member of the Nasarawa State House of Assembly, has died of COVID-19.

The state governor, Abdullahi Sule, who disclosed this, said Suleiman
who represents Nasarawa Central in the state Assembly, died before the
result of his test came back positive. He explained that after the
COVID-19 status of the lawmaker was discovered, members of his family
and those living in the house went into isolation and samples have been
collected from them by NCDC officials for testing.

According to the governor, the deceased lawmaker has since been
buried according to Islamic rites without adherence to safety measures,
as it wasn’t clear at the time if he died of COVID-19. He however gave
the assurance that those who performed the burial rites of the lawmaker
would also be isolated and tested for COVID-19.

The governor said the state House of Assembly complex is to be closed until it is decontaminated.
