Unveiling the herbal cure at the Ile-Oodua Palace, Ile-Ife, the monarch said the product was tested on COVID-19 positive patients in the country.
He said: “We have been on this research for almost two years, and we had an alliance with the different organisation including the Federal Government but this is 100 percent a private initiative, and to the glory of God, NAFDAC gave us approval last year September. And we ensure that the products are effective.
“We have started using it for COVID-19 positive victims, including political office holders since last year September.
“Now we are very convinced that something very good is coming out of Nigeria. I travel far and wide across the country and have even been in the midst of thousands of people and what I have been using to boost my immunity is these drugs. This is our vaccine to combat COVID-19. Today we are launching these products for the benefit of the people of Nigeria and also of all mankind globally. We are celebrating Verozil today, it is approved by NAFDAC and it is proven to be from the most organic product in Nigeria.”
Earlier in his address, chairman of Yem-Kem International Group Akintunde Ayeni said the Ooni pushed him into researching the product in the thick of the lockdown occasioned by COVID-19 pandemic.
Osun commissioner for health Rafiu Isamotu was represented by the director of public health Gbenga Adepoju.
