Encouraging messages from well-wishers sped up my recovery process and made my #COVID19 experience less challenging. I am also grateful to GOD for the tremendous progress we are making in the fight against the spread of #COVID19 in Lagos am glad the numbers of infections are declining by the day.

I, therefore, urge us all to keep observing necessary #COVID19 regulations in public spaces and remain vigilant at home. I wish to assure you all that I am back, better and bouncing. Together we shall win the fight against #COVID19 by doing the right!
