The Chinese along with nearly 2,000 Nigerians are workers in Inner Galaxy steel company situated at Unuahala Ukwa West local government area of Abia state.

One of the workers who spoke with ABN TV on the condition of anonymity on Sunday said they have all been directed to go home and get tested for COVID-19.

The source also told our correspondent that the company had defied the instruction of the state government to shut down following the outbreak of COVID-19.

He said nearly 2,000 of them were confined in the premises of the company with an instruction that any staff who leaves will be automatically disengaged from the services of the organisation.

They were also threatened with other stiff sanctions, a situation that forced them to remain in the premises despite the COVID-19 scare.
