''Please let me go, I am not sick'' Benue state COVID19 index case Susan Idoko Okpe cries out to NCDC as she spends 57 days in Isolation (video)

Susan Idoko Okpe, the Benue state COVID-19 index case, has once again called on the Nigerian government to release her from the Abuja Isolation center where she has been for 57 days now.

In a new video recording she did today, Mrs. Okpe asked the NCDC what exactly they want from her. She asked if the intention of the agency was to kill or poison her. She insisted she is not sick and has not been treated for any ailment since she was admitted for COVID-19.

She says she has been tested five times now for the virus, that her sample was taken last Thursday for the fifth test and up till now, she has not been told the outcome of the test. She is pleading with the authorities to release her and let her go home to be with her family members.

My name is Susan Idoko Okpe nee Lawani coming to you from my incarceration or detention center. This is my 57th day of incarceration….57th day of detention.

I don’t know what to do anymore. I have been tested five times. My last test was on Thursday the 14th of May 2020. The NCDC came and took my sample. Up till this very moment that I am talking, nobody has spoken to me, given me any result, nobody has told me anything. I am wondering what exactly are they doing with me?

I took first test, second, third and fourth and they are saying that I have refused to take further tests. I have taken the fifth test already on Thursday.

Please Nigerians, can somebody ask the NCDC what they want to do with me?

I am not sick, I have never been sick since I have been here for the past 57 days.

I have not taken any medication. I have not fallen ill. I have not had a headache. I have not coughed and I am still here. I am locked up.

Please Nigerians, can somebody help me ask because I am really tired. I miss my children, I miss my grandchildren. I am locked up here, nobody comes to see me. I am locked up in Isolation ward. I only peep out to get my food from people whom I trust that bring my food to me.

Please I beg of Nigerians, help me ask the NCDC or whoever is in charge, why am I being locked up here? What crime have I committed? If I have committed any crime, can they please arraign me before the court of law so that I know my fate. I am just locked up here for no reason. I am not sick. I am not sick. I have not taken any medication. Absolutely nothing wrong with me.

Please I don’t know what to do anymore and I don’t know what they want to do with me anymore. NCDC please! Give me the result and let me know what you want to do with me but as I sit here, I am not sick. There is absolutely nothing wrong with me. They don’t give me anything. They don’t feed me. My children have to ask people to bring food for me.

Nigerians, please ask them for me what they want to do with me. I have done five tests already and I am still here. NCDC please I am begging. I don’t know what you want to do with me. Maybe you want to kill me..maybe you want to poison me. If not what else do you want with me?” she asked
