Former Nigerian federal lawmaker, Senator Shehu Sani has criticised the government’s handling of the identity of the Italian who first tested positive to coronavirus in Nigeria.

In a tweet on Monday, March 2, Sani mocked the government’s approach, saying he hoped the man was not a spirit.

“I hope this Italian is not a spirit from Ancient Rome; no name and no face yet,” he said.
