20 Generals test positive to COVID-19, SGF in isolation



Following the death of Maj. Gen. John Irefin, the General Officer Commanding, 6 Division, Port-Harcourt, Rivers State, who died of complications from COVID-19, which led to the isolation of some people that came in contact with him, about 20 Generals have reportedly tested positive for COVID-19.

The infected military officers were believed to have had contact with the deceased during the Chief of Army Staff’s annual conference 2020, in Abuja, last week. The conference was cancelled following Irefin’s passage and the participants, including the Chief of Army Staff, Lt. Gen. Tukur Buratai; the Minister of Defence, Bashir Magashi; and GOCs from nearly all the army divisions nationwide, were directed to go on self-isolation.
