KIddwaya, the former Big Brother Naija (BBNaija) All-Stars contestant, says he battled with anxiety attacks after the lockdown season.
In a recent interview with Hero Daniels, the reality star said his doctors were unable to figure out what was wrong with him then.
The reality star said he was then wrongly placed on high blood pressure medications for months which nearly claimed his life.
He added that he thought he had COVID-19 but later discovered it was anxiety attacks.
“This was probably about eight weeks after the show. Everything was perfect, everything was good. One day, I was on my bed speaking to my cousin, then I stood up to go to the toilet, and my legs started shaking,” he said.
“This was during COVID-19 time. Then I kind of thought it was COVID. My legs started shaking and my tongue dried up…
“I had a vision blur. Obviously, I was starting to panic. So, I called my doctor. She came and checked my BP [blood pressure] and it was like 180.
“It was ridiculous. At that point, I just thought I had COVID because what else is more talked about in 2020? So I thought it was that.
“They checked my BP and said it was very very high but they could not really figure out what it was. All they knew was that my BP was extremely high.
“So, they put me on BP drugs for months which was not what was supposed to be done. I actually could have died because what I had was an anxiety attack, it raised your BP high and then brought it back down to normal levels.”
Kiddwaya is the third housemate to be evicted from the ongoing BBNaija All-Stars season.
