Access Bank shuts branch after visitor tested positive for coronavirus

Access Bank Plc has temporarily closed its Ligali Ayorinde branch in Victoria Island, Lagos after a visitor tested positive for coronavirus.

“We have confirmed that an individual who visited our Ligali Ayorinde branch on Monday 16th March 2020, has tested positive for coronavirus,” Access Bank said in a statement on Monday.

“He was symptom-free as at the time of visit and he is currently being monitored at an Isolation Centre in Yaba.”

A source told The Guardian that the visitor was a former staff of the banks who returned from the UK recently and that the branch was fumigated on Monday morning after the bank learned of him testing positive for coronavirus. (Text courtesy Guardian)
