This morning, there was seriously growing fear and pandemonium in General Hospital, Ogrute, Enugu Ezike, Igbo Eze North LGA of Enugu State as a result of the nonchallant attitude of the hospital mortician who accepted a corpse smuggled back from an unknown destination yesterday night into the hospital mortuary. Just this morning, The LG chairman, the police and the Enugu State Covid 19 team who are tracing the corpse which the LG chairman, Engr Ejike Itodo who led the team told everyone there that they got inteligence report that the corpse is being suspected to be a victim of Covid 19 smuggled back from the North yesterday night and has been rejected in so many mortuaries but that the stubborn Mortician accepted the corpse. They arrested the Mortician, Mr Onoh who confirmed it was the corpse they are looking for but before their arrival this morning, the corpse has been taken away from the mortuary. There are health workers and their families living in the staff quarters of the hospital and all are in fear right now over their state of health since they are all living together. Some people were seen dialing the CDC emergency line while some people were suggesting self isolation for all of the families living there but meanwhile, the LG Chairman led the team away with the Mortician as they continued their contact tracing and search for the suspected corpse.

NB : This is not in any way, an official or verified report from the scene. I was just passing bye but decided to share this based on what I gathered there for all around the area to be cautious. Meanwhile, I want to appreciate our Governor's Covid 19 team, our LG chairman, Engr Ejike Itodo, the police and the neighborhood watch, even the mortician himself who committed the error, he was very remorseful and supplying all the information the team demanded. O boi if you see as all of them were matching around everywhere, you will know that this Covid 19 has really implanted sense of responsibility and seriousness in some people. By God's grace, we shall overcome this pandemic. Please stay safe!!!
