155 Persons Die In Yobe State Within Six Days Over Suspected Coronavirus Symptoms, State Governor Coordinates Affairs From Abuja

No less than 155 persons have died in Gashua and Potiskum areas of Yobe State over the last six days after exhibiting symptoms related with Coronavirus, SaharaReporters can confirm.

The deaths, which have caused panic among residents of the state, is similar to the situation experienced in Kano recently where people in large numbers died consistently for several days to what had now been confirmed by the Presidential Task Force on COVID-19 to be the virus.

Between April 30 and May 5, 98 people died in Potiskum, a source told SaharaReporters on Wednesday.

"Cemeteries are now the busiest places in these towns.

"In Gashua town, at least 57 have died. Those dying are mostly elders, yet the state Committee on COVID-19 is sleeping in Damaturu as if nothing is happening," another source familiar with the situation, said.

SaharaReporters also gathered that instead of addressing the challenges his state was facing, Governor Mai Mala Buni has been away in Abuja where he spends more than 80 per cent of his time since being elected into office.

Recall that Buni recently gifted 14 Emirs luxury Sports Utility Vehicles worth over N600m despite the poverty rate in the state.

It's getting out of control. God help us.

Lawd of mercy

The news might be true, but Sahara Reporters are not a trusted source of information

Hmmm. Meanwhile state governor is coordinating affairs from Abuja.


You see why I never hesitate to reiterate God's punishment on all Nigerian politicians dead or alive

And it continues to spread like wildfire

wtf is killing these northerners, this is getting scary oo.

H

This is what lawlessness has lead them to, they think they can be lawless by using religion to cover up.
RIP to the dead and may we not be victim of evil things by the grace of God.

It's not corona virus... They should conduct forinsic anayisis

Nawa

Even malaria and fever na Corona now.

Before this Corona virus thing, Lassa fever has been killing people in the North on a daily basis.

Nonsense.

Lorazepam:
The news might be true, but Sahara Reporters are not a trusted source of information

They might not be trusted to you
But they have unearthed some of the largest scandals in this country
That's more than enough for me

Smart move.

Coro has damaged his business in the sports betting world. Dude has to diversify.

And see the crowd at the funeral...





Some people don't learn

Una don suspect covid

Seems the state want to beat Kano's record. May God come to their rescue.

Are you okay?


Sahara Reporters is one of the most reliable source of information as far as Politics and Convik 1-9 birus is concerned

it's not covid....it's mysterious death

This is scary

this keeps getting scary, and the barbaric bio -terrorists are hell-bent on making sure it spreads to the whole nation.

Na wao we can never know the real number of covid19 death in Nigeria because the North are not serious

They are doing well

This is a sad story:

A man in Kano went to a foodseller.
He had not eaten in 3 days.
He begged the seller for food on credit.

The foodseller said no because he already gave food to too many people on credit.

The man sat down beside the foodseller’s shop as he had nowhere else to go.

The foodseller told him he’s very sorry and he would like to help but too many people in the neighbourhood have collected food on credit and his business is sinking.

The man sat there and said nothing.

As time went on, other people came into the shop to buy foodstuff and went out- they noticed the man at the door sitting there sleeping. But nobody bothered.

Until one man came later in the day and asked the foodseller: “who is the man sitting at your door?” “Why is he there?”

Then the foodseller said “oh it’s a man who says he has not eaten for 3 days and he wants to collect food on credit but I could not give him because my business is struggling from all the credit I have already given out”.

Then the other man said: “How much is the food he wants?”

The food seller said “It’s a few cups of garri, rice and beans. Everything may be 2,000 naira”.

The other man said “Alright pack everything he wants and more. I would pay for it. Let him go home to his family and eat”.

The foodseller packed all the food and went outside to tell the man with joy that someone has paid for his food.

He saw the man still sleeping.
He tapped him to wake him up, he didn’t respond. Tapped him again, nothing.

The man had died.
He died sitting and waiting for help.

This happened just few days ago in Badawa, Kano. Some people who live in that area know this story.

The man was dead all along while people were coming in and out of the shop thinking he was sleeping.

He died hopeless. He died helpless. He died a man who his country failed.

Kano has 17 million people.
Less than 200,000 people got any form of palliative from the government.

Many people got hungry.
Many people died in their houses.
Many people starved to death from a govt that locked them in and gave no food.

An evil clueless thoughtless leadership.

If you know anyone in this period who is hungry around you and you can afford a little food or money to give him/her, please do.

Many people are walking the streets with an empty stomach, a sorry face and are dead within. It’s only a matter of time before they physically die.

Don’t be the one who walks into a store and doesn’t bother to ask about the beggar at the door.

We all have our problems yes,
But our little curiosity may save a life.

Be the one who asks “who is that person sitting there?” Be the one who helps.
And be the one who saves a life.

There is a serious problem in the north and trust me covid19 has a lot of catastrophe to unleash on the north.

Before we started having update from NCDC, the north already had covid but illiteracy has helped them not to noticed it but to spread it.

In the coming days, you would be surprised with the news that will be emanating from north on death tolls.

May God have mercy on us
