Fakorede disclosed on June 26 that he had contracted the virus.
The 28-year-old, however, announced on Wednesday, that he has recovered from the disease.
He said he remained asymptomatic until his recovery.
“WE ALWAYS WIN — This past month has been quite eventful. On the 24th of June 2020, I tested positive for COVID-19,” Fakorede said.
“Despite being asymptomatic, I’ve had to be in self-isolation for more than 4 weeks. It was a surreal moment and a cogent reminder that at the end of the day, no human is immutable.
“Having religiously adhered to the self-isolation rules and subjected myself to various medical checks and prescriptions given by the NCDC, I am glad to inform you that I tested negative to Covid-19 today, the 29th of July 2020 — GOD be praised forever.
“Thanks to everyone who reached out to me. I appreciate your love and care. As a Statesman, it is my duty to remind you of your personal responsibility towards this pandemic, own your action.
“Covid-19 is not a death sentence but it is real and we need to keep maintaining social distancing, wash our hands as often as we can, and adhere to social restriction rules.” he added.
