The mother to the owner of Royalty Hotels came back from the US after few days she became sick & died for COVID -19 after her death. Her son also tested positive, the maid died too after testing positive. All still unrecorded.
Another case was a pastor who counseled 2 people who complained they were sick and after he had asked them to go for a test, they instead went home and later died. On getting the news he went for a test and came out positive & currently isolated for treatment. Still unrecorded.

In the light of the new #coronavirus cases in #Osun, let's very briefly talk about #Nigeria's (or Africa's borders). It was sometime last year that I found that probably the 4th largest concentration of Ogbomoso indigenes after Ogbomoso itself, Ibadan and Kano, is in Abidjan.
Basically, this Nigerian community has links with that part of #IvoryCoast because of trade routes that predate the British and the French, and apparently, those trade routes are still in use, which is how people made it through #Nigeria's ostensibly closed borders.
Internet service provider went down, so the thread will continue shortly.

I've seen replies that saying Ogbomoso people are also strong in #Jos and #Ghana, but for the purposes of this, I'll stick with what Mr Akin Akinbola, a much older man from Ogbomoso, told me in Paris.
