Because, for what I do, I'm actually the least at risk in all of mankind.

I am more likely to be exposed to the virus as I make my way home to family who are themselves even more likely to be exposed to it than myself.

Believe me, the world isn't always as your perspective allows you to see.
the world needs you, stay put. Skype them. I know how u feel but,look, it is what is. U are still free to come home though...I am only proposing the idea.

The panic is doing more worse than the virus itself. A virus that 98%+ do recover from. This has come and will pass....by June/July we will be talking about another thing. Few months ago it was World War 3 ,Now corona...just in phases
Yes, the panic is even doing more damage than the virus itself

I Agree that Turkish Airlines don't usually respect Nigerians most of the Time.

But I will have to Disagree with you that with regards ,being stucked and they did not give you "bottle Water".

It's obviously you did not know where to go and you did not ask Questions.

1. International Travel laws mandates any overnight Layover lasting more than 7hrs airlines must provide accommodation space for travellers.

2. If you have a Shengen/UK/USA Visa and your layover is more that 7 Hours , you can get a transit Visa in the Airport and Turkish airlines will Provide you accommodation in Their Partner hotel in Istanbul.

3. If you don't qualify for a transit Visa as per item 2 Above, Turkish airlines provides you with Accommodation within the Airport. You get Food tickets also to eat for free at designated food canteen in the Airport




Gracealone:
Good riddance!

I travelled by Turkish Airlines to Amsterdam for a conference in 2015. We were stuck for 19 hours in the return journey at Istanbul without any arrangement for us, even as little as a bottle of water, nothing!

These Turkish guys do not have Nigerians in appreciable esteem. And imagine the way they tortured and detained Nigerian students during their phantom coup.

It's a fake news shaa, Nigeria is not listed on the Turkish airline website among the banned countries. I wonder what we gain from carrying fake news

Testing, testing 1,2,3....this is a drill, I repeat this is a drill...

Indeed humanity has proven that despite our verbosity were are pitifully unprepared fir Armageddon.

You can then imagine what will have happened if a meteorite the size of the Great Pyramid of Giza had hit the earth...

Or the earth's iron core suddenly stops spinning or reverses direction...

Or one drunk Russian soldier accidentally lets loose an ICBM...

We are as helpless as roaches in an.assembly of cockerels.

You need to thank God for every sunrise and sunset you see because by ourselves we are absolutely nothing.

I was taught a secret at a young age in the military. When you go out to engage the enemy in combat you consider your life forfeited and you mentally work bsck from that position to one of survival. That is the only way body and mind comes together to win.

Live everyday as if it is your last.

They don't want to spread the virus.... they already brought it to Nigeria. More flights... more passengers bringing coronavirus to Nigeria. The FG should be the one banning flights from virus infected countries.... including the US .countries
