The Chief Press Secretary to Osun State Governor, identified as Ismail Omipidan has now confirmed that the escapee has been found and taken back to the facility by the police on Saturday afternoon.
Omipidan said;
“It is true that a patient, a woman escaped from the isolation centre, but she has been apprehended and returned to the facility.
“Presently, we are investigating her movement to enable us to initiate contact tracing with anyone she might have contacted to avoid community spread of the deadly pandemic.”
