It's as if nobody dies of other ailments again. COVID-19 is really the villain right now.

I think the man died of diabetes.

Am not surprised tho cuz even at the peak of the lockdown people were still moving freely in the whole of Niger State except for places like Minna and some parts of suleja

Muslins were still doing their normal gatherings in the mosques, some churches were still conducting services and markets were open as against the presidential directives
