A 150-bed COVID-19 isolation centre was commissioned in Lagos on Sunday by Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu, as the state faces a surge in cases.

The centre is at the Mainland Infectious Disease Hospital, Yaba.

It was built by CACOVID, with funds donated by a coalition of private sector Nigerian businesses.
