Former aide to ex-President Goodluck Jonathan on New Media, Reno Omokri, has warned that the situation in Kano State was a proof that Coronavirus should not be politicized.

In the past few days, Kano State has stirred controversies online after it allegedly recorded death of over 600 people including twenty prominent persons.


Reports on Saturday had it that twenty prominent residents had dropped dead in the state within the last 24 hours.

While some had Coronavirus symptoms, there are speculations that some died of meningitis, but residents and government are yet to explain the real cause.

Reacting, Omokri called out Africans who criticized Melinda Gates for “seeing dead bodies all over African Streets due to the Coronavirus outbreak.”

What is happening in Kano is proof that we should not politicise #CoronaVirus. I was saddened by the ingratitude of some Africans who castigated @BillGates and @MelindaGates over their warnings. Is Kano a manifestation of what they warned us about?#FreeLeahSharibu #RenosNuggets
