Toke Makinwa recounts her COVID-19 experience

October 29,2020

Popular on-air-personality, Toke Makinwa has been missing in action for a bit. What many people didn’t know is that the fashionista and vlogger has been down with COVID-19.

The 35-year-old is fast recuperating and she has come out to speak about her experience with the deadly disease.

In a new vlog on Thursday, though she could not state how she contracted it, she however noted that she has been to hell and back.  

“I have been missing in action for a bit guys, the last two weeks of my life has been pretty tough to handle. I tested positive to COVID-19 and my experience wasn’t great (I mean it’s Covid), shooting this Vlog was a lot as I am not a 100 percent yet but I’m hopeful the worst days are behind me.

“Covid is real guys, there is a second wave of the virus 🦠 in town and it is spreading really fast.

“I can’t say for sure where I caught it but the worst thing for me was contact tracing. Having to call people I have been exposed to, to tell them to quarantine and trace people they have also been exposed to, the whole thing is a mess.

“I share my experience on the Vlog today which is late I know but pls be patient with me, the road to recovery is a lot, I am tired all the time, I have a bit of memory loss and I’m trying to find out what day is what 🤣🤣🤣🤣. Doesn’t help that Nigeria itself has gone through something in this time too. Phewwww!!!! Watch full video on my YouTube channel, link is in my bio and pls subscribe too. Health is the real wealth guys, pls be safe out there. My birthday is in less than a week, I just want to be a 💯 again. Covid is real, wear your mask and wash your hands always. Ok bye ✌️”
