Osuagwu was earlier said to have flown into the country from South Africa via Abuja. He reportedly left Abuja to his hotel in Owerri, and later visited his family at Ahiazu Mbaise LGA, before he felt sick and returned to Abuja where he was said to have died on Monday morning, prompting fears that he had died from coronavirus infection.
Although Osuagwu’s hotel has been sealed and all those he came in contact with have been quarantined, Kemi Olunloyo claims that the facts about his death have been covered in “a big mess. Lies! fraud and rhetoric”.
Kemi claims that a family member of Osuogwu disclosed that he had recently been to Italy, UK and Spain where there is huge record of coronavirus cases.
She went on to allege that Osuagwu felt very ill when he returned and refused to take the COVID-19 test but instead went ahead to his hotel in Owerri before going to his hometown in Ahiazu Mbaise. She further claimed that Osuogwu unknowingly infected his wife, kids and staff which is why all of them have been put on quarantine and the DG of NCDC is helping the state governor to hide what is truly happening with the cases in Imo state.
