By Emmanuel Awosika

Oseloka Obaze, a former Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) candidate in the 2017 Anambra State Governorship Election in 2017, has tested positive for COVID-19.

Obaze is a former diplomat and served as former secretary to Anambra State government (SGG) under ex-governor, Mr Peter Obi and incumbent governor, Chief Willie Obiano.

He said he discovered his infection after testing positive in a pre-travel test, calling on close contacts to enter self-isolation like he has done.

He told Daily Post: “Yesterday (Tuesday), 22/12/2020, I underwent a routine pre-travel Covid test. Today, I received the result, which indicated that I tested positive for Covid-19. Prior to that I had no symptoms whatsoever and was very disciplined about my COVID-19 preventive protocols.

“I’m quarantining and following the recommended treatment regimen. I’ve reached out to those I might have been in contact with recently to inform them to self-isolate. COVID is real. I urge everyone to take it seriously.”
