“Last two weeks have been so hectic lovers. It’s been one hospital or the other running some series of tests on my head and body,” she wrote.

“Haven’t been feeling too well too, so my doctor advised I should be placed on bed rest. Seriously, good health is underestimated.

“I went for my checkups, it was found that there are still fragments of bullet pellets on my head. As years go by, more still comes out. But at the end 🤷‍♀️ it is not of him that willeth, nor of him that runneth, but of God that sheweth mercy.

“God is with me no doubt and may his name be praised. Amen. 🙏 #legitqueen,” Angela Okorie wrote.
