battled with Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). They prepared her for ICU & intubation (Mortality rate is 40%) We cried & we prayed through the entire weekend. 6 people on her ward died. Aged 20s, 40s, 50s and 60s. She is 73 with diabetes. @NHSuk saved her life. ๐๐พ๐๐พ

My mum has never been in the hospital more than 3 days her entire 73 years. I retired her a decade ago she still works 2-3 days a week just to keep active. The overwhelming of health systems causes the spike in deaths. Its math. My mother was part of that math. She survived. pic.twitter.com/tqlVIUuWRp

Thanking the entire @NHSuk staff for looking after my mum and bringing her home. Thanking my oldest mentor and friend Dr Taiwo Olatunji for bringing calm & confidence in our darkest days. Thanking God for giving her a second chance. The Njoku clan will make it count. ๐๐พ pic.twitter.com/gdqBqnzntc

When I closed @irokotv offices globally without an official requirement my leadership teams in Nigeria pushed back saying it wasn't necessary. I prepared early and it still touched me directly. As I have fought mis information and lack of understanding of this pandemic it's scary

A final note on testing. They had to test my mum x4 to get a positive. It is a real problem getting accurate results. It's not a local issue it's a global one. ๐๐พ๐๐พ
