‘I could have died’ – El-rufai recounts coronavirus experience

After his recovery from Covid-19, the disease caused by the novel Coronavirus pandemic, Governor Nasir El-Rufai of Kaduna State has recounted his experience with the disease.

Governor El-Rufai had tested positive for the virus on Saturday, 2 March 2020. He was the index case of the pandemic in his state.

In an interview on Wednesday, 29 April 2020, El-Rufai stated that he went through trauma while in isolation. He also stated that he didn’t know how he contracted the virus.

During the interview, Governor El-Rufai says:

“I could have died, if not for my doctors. I followed their instructions strictly and took my medications.

“My wives collaborated with Dr Hadiza, the deputy governor, and seized my phones while in isolation. I was only left with an iPad, the device I used to read, and go online.

“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.

“I can’t exactly say how I contracted the coronavirus. But I was in Abuja and had interacted with many people, some from overseas.

“I was assigned to chair committees by the government. I believe it was from these interactions that I got the virus.”

The governor, however, urged Nigerians to comply with health guidelines to prevent against the spread of the pandemic, saying the disease does not distinguish between the rich and poor.
