“Yahaya Bello said they are using an unnamed app to check for corona virus in Kogi.
Why are Kogi people hiding this type of technology from the world?
Why????”

“Seun (Channels TV): How many people have you tested
Yahaya Bello: We have an app, we have not yet tested anyone. No one has showed any symptoms or sickness.
Kogi state has zero reported case of covid-19″
