SporaD8: Thanks for the adjustment.
...but for the sake of everything that is good, why is this dude fashola not yet operating at federal level?
A big fish is swimming in shallow waters here!

1) Are you a US citizen ?

2) Make sure you do good things to remain US citizen.

3) Any bad news, you will labelled, "Nigerian man resident in U.S. " .

Missy89:

Yes . States can collaborate with foreign countries. many states in Nigeria collaborate with governments abroad for local projects without the federal govt

chimexdnice1: They r wlcm

FrankC3: No country approaches a State within another sovereign country for any kind of help. Besides, the EVD control center in Lagos is not run by the LASG, it is being managed by the Ministry of Health. Liberian Government cannot approach Lagos State government for any kind of help, same way Nigeria cannot approach the California State for any kind of help.

The best that happened in this case is that the LASG collaborated with the efforts of the Federal Ministry of Health. The Director should not pretend that LASG was responsible for the EVD control efforts, no. FMH was. State Ministries of Health supported mainly from enlightenment drive, the very type that the director was doing when he/she made that statement.

teeowl: Lagos needs to show them the way so that they do not keep coming to Lagos thinking we have a special medicine that we are giving them!

Itnews: that is wat u get withva good national infrastruction

Tofax: Honestly, sometime I wonder the kind of educated people on this forum. You mean Lagos state can act in isolation in dealing with other countries without the permission of the federal government?

CityNG:

If you are very smart you would have kept abreast of developments from the beginning. But as the dunce that you are, you are late to the game as usual. It has been stated time after time that (a) it has not been tested on human yet, (b) it is against the law (in countries with a functioning legal system of which Nigeria is not which is the root cause of your inability to function correctly personally) to sell medicine that has not been approved by the FDA (c) the medicine was in short supply with only 6 doses I think on hand.

2) When you have to guess on debate you should graciously bow out and accept your ineptness and defeat. Don't wade into uncharted waters that your mental capacity is not yet developed to handle.

3) Thank you Sir. Coming from you and based on how you've handled yourself on this debate and your total lack of gumption, international education, lack of any wit, I take that as a complete compliment.

4) It's only 1030AM not night yet for me besides you're not going anywhere. Your bruised ego will not allow you to sleep.

rhymz: Guy like seriously, just shut up already. Your ignorance is so annoying, especially when you feign like you understand what you are arguing about. It is so obvious you don't know jack about the politics surrounding the Ebola containment in Nigeria.

Like Frank already pointed out, LSG can only offer any meaningful assistance through through the involvement of FMH cos this is a pure case of National security. There is no how FG will let Lagos give assistance that might jeopardize the health security of any Nigerian, that is the truth. Ebola is not Malaria or common fever.

And Zmapp was not giving to Nigeria because of the US government politics not that nonsense you wrote up there. In case you do not know, all those pharmaceuticals involved with research on the Ebola virus are being funded by the US military. Tekmira in Canada to Fujifilms in Japan and Mapp pharmaceuticals, they are all being funded by the US military and government, so shut up and talk about what you know.

FG involvement with the containment of Ebola in Nigeria really did a lot to curtail it whether you choose to admit it or not. Before they got involved, it took LASG a wooping 2-3 days to test and confirm if one was infected with the virus. Until FG came a set up CDC laboratory centers in Lagos, Abuja, portharcourt, Enugu Zaria, Ibadan and the likes. Sensitization programs were largely coordinated by FG.

lawrsmith: you're speaking as if LAS is using their resources in fighting the Ebola disease. you and i knew how much federal government budgeted for lagos state in order to contain the EVD. why given Fashola and lagos state government the credit you suppose to give federal government?

obayaya:

And what prevented the company that produced Zmapp from giving it to Nigeria?

Your guess is as good as mine.

I'm sorry to say this sir!! But you're not very smart

Good night

ba7man: As always, FG distributes funds and leave it to either be used judiciously or embezzled.....without asking for feed back.

I don't recall any FG official running around Lagos inspecting isolation centers, constantly appearing on TV to educate the masses, neither were there an influx of medical experts from Abuja or from any part of d country to come co-ordinate health workers in Lagos.

Some people here were also insulting Fashola's isolation wards for looking like makeshifts when he went around to inspect the work done......which I had to start posting on how "makeshift" tents were needed due to the urgent nature of the disease.

Why are victims from other parts relocated to Lagos?? Is the Federal Ministry of Health not present in other parts??

FG just release money, kudos to the Lagos State Govt for making the most out of it.

While we were in the thick of it, no one saw it as a FG effort back then, it was more as if some people were waiting for Fashola to fail so that all hell can break loose or start blaming him.

When Fashola was being insulted for being pro-active and his efforts, the general reply then was "Was is your Governor doing to curb Ebola". They even saw it as an APC state thing.....

If it was most states in the frontline, hundreds might have died by now. Thank your Gods that it wasn't most other Governors that encountered it firsthand.

I'm sure deep down inside you all, you know this but just won't admit it.

ABC247:
So you want the Health officials from the FCT and other states to come and inform you at the comfort of your home that they have arrived LAGOS to fight Ebola before you believe that they helped out. So deep down your mind, you believe that Ebola was fought only by Lagosian Health officials. Let me inform you that among the Health officials in Lagos were IGBO'S, HAUSA'S, NIGER DELTANS AND YORUBAS FROM OTHER STATES.
YOUR IGNORANCE IS EVEN WORSE THAN THIS EBOLA WE ARE TALKING ABOUT.
SO MUCH FOR SOME PARTY MEMBERS. SMH.

PointB: Nigeria has an obligation to Nigerian citizens to assist other West African nations (Liberia, Sierra Leone, etc) to combact and reign in this deadly virus. If these countries get overwhelmed, there is no border control that will stop expose people, who have the means, from seeking succor in other countries like Nigeria.
Either we take the fight to Liberia and Sierra Leone or eventually fight it here in Nigeria. Time to act is NOW!
