Recall that Ebonyi state government had at the weekend ordered immediate isolation of no fewer than 37 returnees that entered the state through the bush after the state government ordered the closure of its borders to prevent a spread of Coronavirus in the state.
Umahi vehemently stated that returnees that try to escape from the quarantine centre where they are to be subjected to medical examinations for 14 days as a result of the Coronavirus pandemic should be shot on sight.

About 30 persons were said to have entered the bush and crossed to a boundary town between Abakaliki and Enugu where vehicles were already on standby to carry them to their various destinations.
The 30 escapees and seven returnees were later taken to a quarantine centre at the Abakaliki Township Stadium where Umahi visited them at 9 pm and ordered that they are to remain in the center for 14 days where they will be subjected to a daily medical examination.
