Ijaycool: The doctor that was detained and forced to sign this pledge - was he a Nigerian in Nigeria? What is his name and where was he detained?You have left out the details in order to build a case. This is exactly the type of thing we are talking about. What you dont realise is that fear is the agent of pandemics. Fear does nothing to solve the problem. It causes chaos which leads to faster spread. Nigeria overcame a far more dangerous disease - Ebola and we can overcome this one. I am not defending the government only defending the responsibilities of the citizen. In the US and UK which vote billions of dollars and have sophisticated early warning systems - have people not died? We dont know everything about this virus but we do know its symptoms and what to do to stay safe. Your commentary is unhelpful. 3 Likes 2 Shares |

Any Update on the Uber Driver that picked the Italian from the Airport ? Has he been Tested , Quarantined ? |
Re: Lagos State Government Reacts To Fake News About Corona Virus by naptu2: 8:06am On Mar 01, 2020 |
Note (for emphasis), the Italian patient never attempted to escape and there's no Uber driver. These are all part of the fake news that has been circulating. 1 Like |

At this rate, I suggest government start arresting bloggers who peddle fake news. People do not understand the damage hysteria can cause in situations like this. It could also give terrorist organizations like boko haram ideas on how to inflict harm on the masses. What stops boko haram from sending an infected minion into the general population with the sole purpose of infecting as many people as possible? Racism against Chinese populations in some countries have spiked, because of ignorance and hysteria. Stop fake news!! |

iswallker:the virus was already in Italy weeks b4 Italian government detected it..if the virus is in Italy,does it mean all Italians have it.....the man must have contracted it at Italian airport and the symptoms manifested in Nigeria |

Nawa for AIT o, there is no humanly possible way an expatriate working for larfarge will order an Uber. If not for fear of kidnap and regulations, most of them go in convoys and excorts. AIT needs to query the staff that posted such. 1 Like 1 Share |

This is among the reason I advocate for that social media bill to be implemented. Let them find those who peddled that fake news and make them dance to the music. |

Finally, the anti freedom of speech guys have found something to use to propagate their antisocial media bill.. Rumourmonger's are evil people but Heck! This isn't why we should accept to be gagged by your repressive government. As far as I am concerned, there are extant laws to prosecute internet crimes. Nothing stops them from dragging the source of these rumours to court now, but you and I know they will never do that. But let someone do am expose on their secret mansions and looting now, they will arrest him immediately. Goes to show they only want to protect their atrocious lifestyle, not really for the masses |

No matter what, some idiots will still believe a fake news, no matter how obvious it is for reason bordering on Illiteracy Mischief Naivety Hatred I really do believe in some form of moderation of the social Media space otherwise it will eventually lead to problems for Nigeria |

Whether you post and share fake news all around, facebook, whatsapp, causing nuisances, it no concern me, what i know is i could sense a fake news from the original when i see one |

Fake news should attract a fine of N300,000 or 1 month imprisonment. That's the only way to put sense into these foolish bloggers. Since Google started paying bloggers I knew it was a recipe for fake stories. |

Ryocaj:guy even the very educated fall for misinformation...when misinformation is spread through social media some are very believable if you are the type that don't check or research things yourself though might be very educated |
