COVID-19: Ex-Oyo Gov, Ajimobi, reportedly in critical condition in Lagos hospital

A former governor of Oyo State, Abiola Ajimobi, is reportedly on admission and in critical condition at the First Cardiology Hospital, Ikoyi, Lagos.

Sahara Reporters reports that Ajimobi is being treated for COVID-19 related complications.

Recall that a Lagos Lawmaker, Senator Bayo Osinowo, died on Monday at the same hospital after suffering from complications related to the respiratory illness.

Ajimobi was a few weeks ago rushed to the facility after his health condition deteriorated and has since remained at the Intensive Care Unit of the hospital with doctors said to be making frantic efforts to save his life.

Recall that late Chief of Staff to President Muhammadu Buhari, Abba Kyari, was treated for Coronavirus at the same hospital in Lagos until he died in April.

The hospital is a top choice among wealthy Nigerians seeking cardiovascular treatment and has been in operation since 2008.

It had handled a handful of Coronavirus patients among Nigeria's rich in recent times.
