Five members were declared positive, one of which was Dr Olatubosun, however, the other four members were subsequently cleared 14 days ago.

An elated Olatubosun therefore gave thanks to God for his mercy over him and everyone who played prominent roles in his recovery.

He thanked the Almighty God for his mercy during period and as always while he further commended the Chairman of the Taskforce in the State, Governor Seyi Makinde, for his unrelenting supports during his one and half months in isolation.
