After two days of massive up turn in their fortunes, Kano State have slowed down in the COVID19 Champions League according to results released on
Saturday night by the National Center for Disease Control, NCDC.
In Saturday night’s results, two hundred and twenty new cases were confirmed, but unlike the previous two nights that Kano State topped the ranking, this time they were third on the new infections list.
Lagos State maintained their grip at the top of the table as they added 62 infections to the list on Saturday, while the FCT made a strong push to retain second position when they polled a total of 52 new infections.
Kano who had been on a roll in the last two days added just two infections, a figure that set tongues wagging.
Kaduna State in with a shout
Kaduna State got a season high of 31 new infections on Saturday while Sokoto got 13 news ones.
From figures released by the NCDC it seems as though the scourge of the COVID19 pandemic is affecting the northern states more than it is the south, Lagos state, the epicenter, being the only exception.
There were no new states recording infections within the last twenty four hours as Kogi and Cross Rivers States remain the only ones without a positive case so far.
