This was because, despite the demands of the office I occupy, I have been careful since COVID-19 crept into our world – I took the test just like others and didn’t nurse any fear. I was asymptomatic, I still am, and I remain fearless.
“I have immediately followed and adhered strictly to the directives of the Incident Management for the Oyo State Response to the Coronavirus pandemic.
