The Emir contracted the virus several weeks ago and was being treated in isolation at the Federal Medical Centre Katsina.
He said he now believed that the virus is real and urged Nigerians to get closer to God and support the efforts of the government against the COVID-19.
“All praises be to Almighty Allah for taking us through this time, the most dangerous period in the entire world. The Emir said.
“I want to draw the attention of the people world over that the current pandemic is not a joke hence people should fear God and return to God.
“If the world is not settled, people should not expect anything good even if you are physically healthy. Let the governor know that I am now fully recovered.”
