It is a sad day for the medical community in Nigeria as COVID-19 has reportedly killed a Nigerian medical doctor in Katsina.

He said the deceased was Dr. Aminu Yakubu, a Daura based private Medical practitioner who recently returned from Lagos to the state.

Mr Masari went further to say that all the persons the deceased had contact with are being traced and his family members have been isolated.

The death of Dr. Aminu Yakubu has taken Nigeria’s total deaths to 6.
