Despite increased testing, the state only recorded 102; 121 cases on Thursday and Friday respectively, a departure from the worrisome numbers it reported in recent weeks.
Meanwhile, 389 cases were added to the national tally on Saturday as Abuja recorded an uptick in its Covid-19 cases once again, after racking up 50 cases.
