Description

Many states in the north have sent their almajiris away to their homes, most especially Kano, Kaduna, Nasarawa states. And it is true that most of this almajiris, like in Kano and Kaduna have been tested positive for Corona Virus, that is why the 19 northern states take a preventive measure to send them back to their homes.

Here in Niger state where I am, many almajiris were among the people tested positive and it has been confirmed they are among those sent from Kano state.
