Paul Okoye’s illness is coming a few months after his twin brother Peter and his family were affected by the novel virus.

There have been several warnings to Nigerians to take the virus seriously and avoid crowded places. A warning which has constantly been neglected as many keep attending parties.

It has been advised by medical practitioners to always use masks, hand sanitiser, and continually wash their hands while avoiding unnecessary movements.
