‘COVID-19 is real’, says Peter Okoye after tested positive

Nigerian pop-star, Peter Okoye has disclosed that he and his family tested positive for COVID-19.

Peter Okoye, in a live session on his verified Instagram page on Saturday said, “It took me a lot of courage to say this.

“For weeks, I was in prison in my own house. I was sick. I was COVID-19 positive. It took me a lot of courage to say this. I caught the virus.

“I used to think this whole virus thing was a joke and I took it for granted.”

Speaking further, Okoye also revealed that his daughter and wife were later tested positive, including his cook and one of his nannies.

The former P-square group member further informed that he and his family have now tested negative after treatment.

“If you think this whole virus is fake or you don’t have anyone that you know, I am telling you now that it is real,” Okoye said.
