In a related development, Fani-Kayode says United States President Donald Trump and the US First Lady, Melania Trump will recover from Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic.

Naija News had reported earlier that President Trump announced on Thursday, October 1 that he and his wife, Melania tested positive to coronavirus which has ravaged the world and kept many countries in lockdown.

“Tonight, @FLOTUS and I tested positive for COVID-19. We will begin our quarantine and recovery process immediately. We will get through this TOGETHER!” Trump tweeted on Thursday, days after he mocked Joe Biden of always wearing “big facemask”.

The storm may be rough but they shall pass through it safely & strongly. They shall prevail because God is with them & He is faithful to His own.
