The minister announced the good news on his verified Twitter handle this morning.

Onyeama, who is a member of the Presidential Task Force on COVID-19, disclosed that he had tested positive for COVID-19 about three weeks ago.

“By the very special grace of God my latest #COVID19 test result came back NEGATIVE after three weeks isolation.
I am eternally grateful to my family, the C-in-C and VP, the medical team, relations, friends, colleagues, religious leaders and numerous well-wishers, who through their care, prayers, fasting, messages of support and encouragement never let me walk alone,” the minister tweeted earlier today.
