@EIghede: “Covid 19 is not in my country (Nigeria) Oga The only problem we are facing now is Malaria or  maybe Fever that is all…….And because weather is cold over here in Benin city Nigeria…Please be wise!!!!”

It would be recall that few weeks ago the singer had revealed that himself, wife and daughter had tested positive for the virus and recovered after three weeks.
