Abba Kyari has diabetes, now buhari personal guards also have diabetes. Who’s thinking what I’m thinking?

Bashir should know that we southerners are well educated, hence, it’s better to give authentic report or never give out the lies.
We’re well aware that whoever has been suffering of diabetes disease is likely to easily contract COVID-19.
Late Abba Kyari infected them of COVID-19.– @Godswillluv
May almighty Allah forgive his shortcomings and grant him Al-jannatu Fridaus.
