When COVID came to Nigeria, it was a total surprise

So, I first heard about the pandemic at the hub, and I think I heard about it at year ending, but at that time I don’t think it was in Africa yet. So you know, the people didn’t believe it, people were not really taking it that seriously and so there were a lot of rumours that it couldn’t affect Africans, or just a lot of different things from the media and it was really confusing… And so, when it finally came to Africa and finally came to Nigeria it was like, a total surprise, and I think everything kind of changed and felt different when it came to Kano because people were finally realising it is for real and I was finally realising it’s so close to me and you know, anything could happen.
