#Coronavirus: 10 Nigerians awaiting evacuation in the UK test positive for COVID-19
10 Nigerians who applied for evacuation from the United Kingdom due to the COVID-19 pandemic, have tested positive for the novel virus.
Recall the Ministry of Foreign Affairs had given conditions for Nigerians residing outside the country, to be evacuated. One of such conditions stated that they would be tested for COVID-19 before coming back to Nigeria.
According to reports, most of those who tested positive were not resident in the UK but went to the European country for business and educational purposes. The United Kingdom is one of the high-risk countries.
