Founder of DAAR Communications Plc, Raymond Dokpesi and two of his grandchildren have been discharged from the University of Abuja Teaching Hospital, Gwagwalada Isolation Centre, Abuja after recovering from COVID-19.
In a letter of appreciation issued on Thursday after their discharge, Dokpesi noted that the two weeks he spent at the treatment centre had provided him with a first-hand experience of the daunting challenge before Nigeria as a country.
He said: “I am exceptionally indebted to God Almighty for keeping and protecting me and my entire family all through our isolation at the University of Abuja Teaching Hospital, Gwagwalada Isolation Centre.

“We are better acquainted with the personal sacrifices many Nigerians are making to ensure that we collectively defeat this pandemic.
“This cuts across the policymakers, the care providers and even the cleaners whose job puts them at constant risk of exposure.”
Recall that Dokpesi, his daughter-in-law, and six other members of his family tested positive for Coronavirus two weeks ago.
His son and Chairman of the board of the company, Raymond Dokpesi Jnr, had earlier tested positive for the virus.
