You're referring to the first case of COVID-19 reported in Akwa Ibom State, Nigeria. Here's what I found:

Case: A 35-year-old male, a resident of Uyo, the capital city of Akwa Ibom State, tested positive for COVID-19.
Details: The individual, who had recently traveled to the United Kingdom, presented himself at the University of Uyo Teaching Hospital (UUTH) with symptoms of fever, cough, and headache. He was immediately isolated and samples were taken for testing.

The individual was placed in isolation, and contact tracing was conducted to identify and monitor those who had come into contact with him.
