Discharged COVID 19 patients in Niger state have spoken about their time at the state's Isolation center.

In an interview with The Nation, the patients who were discharged today, May 24, claimed that all through their stay at the isolation center, no drug was administered to them in the form of treatment.

The patients stated that despite the fact that they tested positive for COVID 19 , they were neither treated nor re-tested before being discharged.

One of the discharged patients, who was picked up from Zumba in Shiroro local government area, said he was expecting to be treated and given drugs throughout his stay at the isolation center but was only given food.

Niger has 26 confirmed COVID 19 cases, with 18 patients on admission. Five have been discharged and one deceased.

The state government is yet to react to this allegation.
