Investigative journalist, Kemi Olunloyo has disclosed that an announcement would soon be made by a prominent Nigerian politician who had tested positive for COVID-19.

Controversial journalist Kemi Olunloyo had reported weeks ago that a very high ranked member of President Buhari’s cabinet had died. She also stated that they cannot hide it like they did the death of former President Yar Adua- “U cannot hide it like Yar’Adua”.

She also said she’ll give the government the liberty of telling the citizens because she values “NATIONAL SECURITY OF NIGERIA”.

She received a lot of backlash from people who thought she was being her usual self and nobody took her seriously.

But the sudden announcement of the death of Abba Kyari last week made many believe Kemi Olunloyo is a reputable journalist because this isn’t the first time she has talked about issues before they were reported.
