Ex-governor, Ali Modu Sheriff, Flees To Abuja To Avoid COVID-19 Test by boman2014: 4:57pm On May 03, 2020
Residents of Maiduguri, capital of Borno State,
have expressed concerns after the whereabouts
of former governor of the state, Ali Modu
Sheriff, became a subject of debate.

SaharaReporters gathered that Sheriff had
refused to make himself available for COVID-19
test despite meeting two prominent citizens of
the state, who died of the virus recently.

A member of the state prevention and
response team said the former governor was
one of the contacts being traced and linked up
with late former governor, Mohammed Goni,
and Shehu of Bama, Alhaji Kyari Elkanemi, who
both died of the virus.

Both Goni and Elkanemi had had last week
attended the funeral of Sheriff's late father,
Galadima Modu Sheriff, in Maiduguri where
social distancing rules were broken by
attendees.

Also, during the three days of mourning, they
were said to have had meetings with Sheriff at
his father's residence and his private residence
in GRA Maiduguri.

But a source close to the former governor said
he had fled to Abuja to avoid health officials
especially from the Nigeria Centre for Disease
Control and the state’s COVID-19 prevention
and team from taking his sample for test.

“We are surprised that someone like him would
be afraid to get tested. They called him several
times to make himself available for testing but
he refused. He deceived them and ran away to
Abuja with few of his aides.

“This is someone who had different meetings
with the late Goni,” the source said.
