Shocking as 63 Years old Nigerian Doctor Dies Of Coronavirus

The Minister of State, Federal Ministry of Health, Adeleke Mamora, has revealed that a Nigerian doctor, Olumide Okunuga, has died after contracting coronavirus.

Mamora noted that the medical doctor died in Canada while speaking with newsmen during a briefing in Abuja on Monday.

“We must be conscious of not being complacent, the price to pay for complacency is huge. I have heard people say that the black man’s gene is resistant and so COVID-19 is not for us.”

“Don’t forget, some black men even from Africa, even from Nigeria have died, unfortunately. We heard the story of one doctor who lived in Italy, a Nigerian, a black man.”

“So we should not get carried away. There are a lot of things known about COVID-19 and there are still things unknown. We have to be very careful about believing claims that are yet to be fully validated.”

The Nigerian doctor who lived in Italy had contracted the disease during a visit to Canada. He died at aged 63.
