Explaining the height of the infection, he stated that he went blind in one of his eyes on December 5, 2022.
He said:
“Throughout December of 2022, I was fighting for my life. I went blind in one eye on the 3rd of Dec. 2022 & on the 5th, I was diagnosed with a brain tumour.
“Today I stand here before you to share my story. It has been a long road to recovery but each day is better than the last.”
According to him, he underwent brain surgery in Nigeria with the help of a neurosurgeon named Dr Tayo Ojo.
“It was Dr. Tayo Ojo, a neurosurgeon here in Nigeria that did the surgery. So many people begged me to leave the country and get the surgery done but something kept me back here because I still had trust in us. We just need more investment in our health sector.”
