I could have died, says El-Rufai
KADUNA State Governor Nasir El-Rufa’i on Wednesday spoke about his experience while undergoing Coronavirus treatment.
“I survived it. Someone else may not. That is why we are very serious about the disease. I went through trauma, even when I spoke online from isolation, I was battling with a debilitating headache. I won’t like even my enemy to suffer from coronavirus. “When I came out from isolation, I intended to leave my beard because it was the tradition of the Holy Prophet Muhammad, may the peace and blessings of Allah be with him.
He commented the State’s Covid-19 Standing Commutee headed by his deputy, saying, “it is a good coincidence that we have Dr Hadiza as our deputy governor and Dr Baloni who was with UNICEF for over 20 years and knows much about public health. We are glad and lucky to have them, especially during this pandemic.”
