The Minister of Science and Technology, Dr Ogbonanya Onu, has said the United States is conducting tests on a ‘chemical compound’ isolated by ex-Chairman of the Independent National Electoral Commission, Prof. Maurice Iwu, as a possible cure for coronavirus.

He dismissed reports suggesting that Iwu had found a cure for the disease, adding that his initial finding was that the compound could cure SARS.

Onu said, “They are testing it in the US to confirm whether this could be a cure for Covid -19 or SARS

I will take this news with a pinch of salt

Experience they say is the best teacher, I will never swallow hook, line and sinker whatever this lying gov't and her appointees say

Don't be surprised if a statement is issued by the minister in the evening denying to have said such

Why do we need to have the drug tested in the US?

Are we saying we don't have labs that can test its efficacy in Nigeria?

Once the drug passes the test, they'll probably modify it to become better and claim the glory, unless...

I sure hope it cures Covid19 or whatever they call it.

shocked

But the person that announced this is a current minister and an appointee of this devilish govt that is notorious for their lying prowess which would want to steal the shine and glory from Maurice if eventually it comes out that the said drug truly works.

So what is your point?
