He said 72 hours later, he tested negative.
Obasanjo, who turned 84 on Friday, made the disclosure during his birthday, saying, โIt will surprise you that I was tested positive for COVID-19.
โI called them to come and test me, they came on a Saturday, I didnโt get the result until Wednesday and it came out positive but I didnโt see any symptoms.
โThey came three days after they tested me and said I am negative โ that is three days after I tested positive.
โMy daughter, Iyabo, is an epidemiologist and I called her to explain, she said maybe they tested me at the later stage of my being positive.
โI told her that I had no symptoms and she said it could be a faulty result.
โBut I was tested positive. Since then, I have tested three times negative; so, if you want to come near me, you can come near me.
โIt is nothing to worry about, when I was tested positive, my household was running from me, I told them to stay in their place while I stay in mine.โ
