Bishop Israel Makamu has tested positive for
COVID-19.
He received his results this morning after a few days of not feeling well. He told Daily Sun that he's been on self-isolation and is feeling a bit better.
"This thing hurts, my body was just fatigued and had other symptoms. I'm feeling much better now and want people to know that this is real, and they should really take this seriously," he said.
He also told Daily Sun that he's been taking home remedies and some medication to help him get better.
"My wife has been giving me that garlic, lemon, and ginger mixture. I also steam a lot and it has really helped me," said Makamu.
He encouraged people to adhere to lockdown rules and regulations.
"Some people are walking around without masks, this is very dangerous plus you never really know where you'll get it," he said.
"I have a funeral parlor and it hurts so much to take a body straight to the graveyard. Please stay safe," said Makamu.
