I love this move, this was what I mentioned yesterday on this nairaland, if this is not implemented, those loop holes will not be blocked. More so, the barricade supposed to be a big trailer or train if possible. because they can remove it. Also, security workers suppose to be there and arrest any one trekking or climbing over the barricade. Nigerians are recalcitrant. If iron hand is not used on us. We will not change.

1.3 million infected and 80,000 dead Americans is an opinion?

Are you losing your train of thought? You said trump's behavior has been dangerous and inadequate. This is an opinion. If you mean to argue that his behavior is responsible for the crisis, you are yet to advance any argument in that direction. As I said, I'm open to being convinced.

Wike is not leaving anything to chance.

He's proactively working tomorrow to ensure that the measures are strictly complied with.


He's both the governor and the head of the taskforce undecided

Wike knows that some faceless people in northern nigeria are arresting, organizing and shipping hordes of Almajiris to his state. Many of these Almajiris are already infected with COVID-19.

Wike also knows that unlike Kano, Kaduna or Bauchi that can get massive help from the FG, he will receive nothing from FG if he allows an outbreak to occur in Rivers state.

Thus, he is doing what he ought to do to protect his people from those bent on sending death to them.

this is the type of person that can rule this country. a very strict person that if anyone behave like animal he should treat that person like animal and if he behave like human being he should treat that person like human being.

9ic move.

2. Trump cut CDC 2020 funding by 16%

3. While the virus was spreading around the world, Trump was praising China and claiming china will contain it while he did mostly nothing.

https://www.politico.com/amp/news/2020/04/15/trump-china-coronavirus-188736&ved=2ahUKEwiIr-CO46npAhWM3oUKHal8B2MQFjAAegQIARAB&usg=AOvVaw37CLlxRu7eMOGNCpg_9qTq&ampcf=1

4. Trump dismissed the virus as a democratic hoax, and claims without any scientific basis that the virus will disappear in the warm weather of April

5. Early on, Trump claimed to have the virus under "total control"

https://www.poynter.org/fact-checking/2020/we-have-it-totally-under-control-a-timeline-of-president-donald-trumps-response-to-the-coronavirus-pandemic/&ved=2ahUKEwjB3b7q46npAhUX3IUKHSCsDhQQFjAHegQIBBAB&usg=AOvVaw3p8AF5Mt_bVXAgbs0vM8-N

6. Trump promotes a dangerous and unproven treatment with hydroxychloroquine when even his experts say it's ineffective and dangerous. At least one man died and several were hospitalized from it. Trump later abandoned this position.


https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2020/04/24/rise-fall-trumps-obsession-with-hydroxychloroquine/%3FoutputType%3Damp&ved=2ahUKEwijmamQ5KnpAhUNxIUKHQ1BAQ0QFjAKegQIAhAB&usg=AOvVaw3YjOLFRl6L5r5AaszfTAm_&ampcf=1


7. Trump announces the china flight ban in January, but allowed 40,000 Americans from China to return back to the US. None were tested for the virus.

https://www.axios.com/coronavirus-trump-china-travel-ban-45a2da12-8063-4ad9-ba28-61cdeb1ce0b3.html&ved=2ahUKEwj-y4rm5KnpAhWtzYUKHXQLAmkQFjAAegQIBRAB&usg=AOvVaw03Aw2AoRM9OXp7kgWZyzj3&ampcf=1

8. Trump largely went campaigning in February and did nothing throughout this period to stop the virus. He also went golfing. A whole month was lost while the pandemic was spreading across the US.

https://www.cnn.com/interactive/2020/04/politics/trump-covid-response-annotation/&ved=2ahUKEwjJi7KY5anpAhWSzYUKHXOAAxgQFjAFegQIBhAC&usg=AOvVaw02-m0c5KMjI0Dsc2EuYzYt


9. Trump did not use the WHO test kits in use by the rest of the world and sought to create theirs, which were initially faulty and not enough, which led to poor test response while Singapore, Germany and South Korea were conducting mass testing and tracing.

https://www.vox.com/platform/amp/policy-and-politics/2020/3/14/21177509/coronavirus-trump-covid-19-pandemic-response


20. Trump claims he won't assist governors who refuse to shower him with praise, this caused a poorly coordinated response between the states and fed. Trump made his ego more of a priority than people's lives.

https://theintercept.com/2020/03/28/exchange-aid-trump-wants-praise-governors-can-use-campaign-ads/&ved=2ahUKEwjtwP7g5qnpAhVKJBoKHTXDC7EQFjAAegQIBhAC&usg=AOvVaw3Y-B1dsY6_h_YrRLSCiVhU

21. Trump encouraged armed protestors to insist on reopening even when the conditions given by Trump's team were not met. This led to people dangerously massing without distancing and masks, and challenging state authorities, ot also nearly led to an armed showdown. Some of the states who prioritized economy over safety are already seeing spikes in new infections.

https://www.nytimes.com/2020/04/17/us/politics/trump-coronavirus-governors.amp.html&ved=2ahUKEwil_sq856npAhVkyoUKHdO4C9IQFjACegQIARAB&usg=AOvVaw15wGc9fFa3NfS8L0wy7HcF&ampcf=1

22. Trump never seriously empathized with the families of the dead, instead he's busy campaigning for his reelection.

23. Trump cuts funding for the WHO at a time the world needs a global coordinating body to fight the pandemic, especially since Trump largely abdicated the US's traditional leadership role. Yes the WHO made mistakes believing China and praising its efforts, but Trump did same (see 3 above), and without a global coordinated response no country is really safe even if it wipes off its own epidemic. The global race for a vaccine would best be coordinated through a global health body.

24. Trump carelessly ponders the use of UV light and dangerous, poisonous substances to treat the virus.

These are some of the many actions and inactions of Trump that led to the highest number of deaths and infections even when the US, through its vast intelligence networks, knew a global health threat was running loose in China. If you watch the nightly Trump press meeting it's largely about how Trump's not getting credit for "saving millions of lives" and the press attacks on him.

So if these don't qualify as Trump's inadequacy, i don't have anything further to say to you.

Futuragetty:
Speak up already, Governor Wike
Sharp man, correct guy...
Been in government circles for 20 years...
He understands Nigeria pretty good...
And has exploited the foibles of the structure to the hilt...
Then he became a minister...
And wanted to do a lot...
But got hampered by the Constitution...
He complained as much in my presence...
But didn't know whom I was...
Bought me a drink though...
Well, I took it with a smile...
So he opted to be a governor...
Battles he had to keep his mandate...
A combination of a street man and an intellectual...
He kept off the Vultures...
And rallied his people behind him...
For better for worse...
Governor Wike is an interesting man...
That he loves his people is not in doubt...
And wants the best for his immediate Region...
But has discovered to his chagrin...
How evil the 1999 constitution is...
So he does things in such a way...
To challenge the omnipotence of the federal government...
Talk of a governor that wants true federalism...
Or one that's ready to call it quits with Nigeria...
I see his actions and observe the ambivalence...
He enjoys what the Constitution brings him...
But detests the Constitution at the same time...
Nothing proves this more than the current pandemic...
Where he's telling the federal government off in every way...
To shove it down an orifice...
Where the sun shines none!
So what exactly do you fear Governor Wike?
A second term governor with nothing to loose...
Protected by immunity and loved by your people...
Why hide behind bravado when you could really be brave?
Why challenge the 1999 constitution at a tangent and not
straight on...
When you could challenge it head-on?
We all know you detest that constitution...
Why not pitch-in and denounce it right away...
Rather than this method the simpletons don't understand?
According to my funny friend called Dino, the son of Melaye...
Speak up, you die...
Keep shut, you die...
Why not speak up on the Constitution...
And still live, and die like a hero?
We know what you think of that stupid document...
But your method shows a whole lot of cowardice...
When you could easily be a hero!
I say "death to the 1999 constitution"!
Even as a nobody, I'm yet to get killed!
Dear Governor Wike of State of the Rivers...
Denounce the 1999 constitution today and lead the fight...
Grow some balls and fight head-on...
You would not die but be seen as a hero...
For what could we do when our men are she-males?
# think again something today...
Reject that constitution and be our premier!
Can I get an "amen" somebody?
