Nigerian singer, Teniola Apata, has narrated her battle with malaria.
In a post on her Instagram page on Wednesday, She said the illness took a toll on her.
The singer called on the Elegushi of the Ikate-Elegushi Kingdom to address the rapid surge of mosquitoes in Ikate.
She said: “I was down with malaria. Oba Elegushi, we need to find something to do about the mosquitoes in Ikate.
“Malaria had me down, I went through a lot. I was down and weak for two weeks. I could not eat so I lost weight.”
“Amid that, I went to perform in Ondo because who will feed me? I was still dancing and singing because I can’t make a refund. Any money that enters my account doesn’t come back out.”
