Dear Nairalanders,

Okay, so I came into the country sometime mid-December and I did my repeat covid-19 test as required by government 7 days after, just before Xmas at the only listed Covid-19 test center in Ibadan (Medicaid Radio-Diagnostics Clinics, Adeoyo Junction) on the government website since it was the closest (and only listed) test center to me. However, up until now I'm yet to get my test result even after follow up email and call to the test center, and despite claims that the result takes just only 3 days (72 hours) max to deliver.

Now my concern - I need to do another Covid-19 test for my return flight out of Nigeria, so I'd appreciate if anyone can kindly recommend other good test centers apart from the above mentioned one preferably in Ibadan with better delivery and turn around time.

Thanks in advance.

I don't think there are usually more than one test center in a state. Even the ones who claim to be test centers usually take the sample to the approved lab. For example, in Lagos, Lagos Bio Bank is where they take their samples to and that is where I did mine.

Thanks a lot for the clue. SYNLAB actually came up in many of my previous searches on Google before deciding to come here.

You're right brother. Many of the Labs (especially private ones) still had to transport samples taken to designated lab, which seem to be impacting on the result processing time obviously.

good day miss, please does the synlab result has barcode on it?
Thanks
