Popular Rhythm FM OAP, Toke Makinwa, who hosted the red carpet at the March 14th AMVCA alongside Ebuka Obi-Uchendu, has come out to say that she has been self-isolating after the event.

This is coming after the Lagos state government asked everyone that attended the award ceremony to self-isolate as an attendee of the award ceremony has tested positive.

Reacting, Toke revealed that she has been doing just that and she hopes everyone else is safe out there.

Makinwa added that she and her team members are currently hydrating, staying healthy, exercising, washing their hands and monitoring each other.

Her words, “I hope you and yours are keeping safe, thank you l for your messages and prayers, I worked at the #AMVCA, I have been off air and self isolating, making TikTok videos to entertain you, not sharing unverified information and just trying to keep my mind active. My team members and I have been hydrating and staying healthy, exercising, washing our hands and monitoring ourselves. #Thistooshallpass #staysafeoutthere.”

Way to go.
