How more stupid can this government be? - You refused to restrict flights and close borders into your country inspite of outcries.
- You suddenly woke up and closed borders after recording cases.
- now you are banning religious gatherings when schools are still open, markets are still full of crowds, banks are still operating, restaurants are still open, bus stops are crowded etc angry


We have one problem in this country called GOVERNMENT

Christians and Christianity will come out of this stronger.

Without the contributions and donations? No tithe money? How will they pay for parking the pastors jet? etc. Also, if the worshippers knows that money can stay in their pockets and not go to Church yet they are not dead, they might stop paying tithe all together and that will be the end of all these churches and hopefully real christianity will return.

The world is on a lockdown. Why should Nigeria be different? Are we on an alien planet? Government should begin to give people cash to cushion the effects of COVID-19.

The pic shows a street in the US eerily quiet.

our leaders always act late..Ghana record the first case last week,and immediately it was reported the government ban every gathering. Churches,schools and all sporting events.. But our leaders always wait for disaster to happen before doing the needful.

Questions & Answers With Prophet Tb Joshua Regarding Coronavirus


QUESTION – Prophet TB Joshua, what shall we call this period we are in – where you cannot give your neighbour a handshake, you cannot cough in public, travel to Jerusalem or Mecca for pilgrimage has been prohibited, people no longer share the Holy Communion cup, Pope Francis is performing Mass through video, many churches are holding services online, universities such as Harvard have closed, in many countries there are no gatherings of people more than ten and even President Trump said the situation is “not under control”. What can you say?
ANSWER – Don’t forget what Jesus said to His disciples, to Simon Peter in Luke 22:32 – “I pray your faith will not fail.” It is a prophetic word. Jesus was prophesying about what was to come – a time like this. He knew something was coming that would challenge our faith, that would take the faith from many, that would stop people from worshipping. But I don’t see anything to panic about because Jesus said in John 16:33 – “In this world, you will have tribulation – but cheer up; I have overcome the world.”
Don’t forget what I said at the beginning of the year – “Work of God – people will be getting tired this year because the work of God is not by power and might; because of so many challenges, tribulations and burdens they will not be able to bear.” Real faith thrives on a test. If there was nothing serious in the past to test our faith, here is something to test our faith in a unique way – a real situation. What an opportunity to grow in faith, in our relationship with God! What can separate us from the love of God (Romans 8:38-39)? Can the coronavirus? Can death? Nothing! As 1 Corinthians 10:13 says, He will not allow you to be tempted beyond what you can bear.
QUESTION – You said the voice of the coronavirus will be silenced by the end of this month but President Trump said it may linger until July or August. For re-emphasis, we want to hear from you again because there is so much fear and panic.
ANSWER – I say again – it is the remnants we are seeing. The real coronavirus is gone. What we are seeing now are the remnants. But what the coronavirus has caused – economic backlash, fear – will linger until the end of the year.
QUESTION – How do we overcome fear?
ANSWER – What is fear? How do you define fear? Fear means you are not in line with God, you are not with God. Fear exposes the level of our relationship with God. Fear exposes the kind of relationship we have with our Creator – God. Fear exposes who we serve, who we believe. Fear means we are not serving God with all our hearts. Fear means we are not such in heart. The opening of the eyes of our faith will be the silencing of our fears.
QUESTION – What are we to expect at the end of this month?
ANSWER – I have said it! How many times do you want me to say it? How many times do you want to hear it?
QUESTION – But are we to continue with the coronavirus?
ANSWER – The name of God has always been used for possible things – but faith is for impossible things. We are using God’s name for possible things, not impossible. People’s lives have been like this. This coronavirus has only exposed us. Our challenges determine where we are spiritually. Challenges reveal the true condition of man’s heart. Challenges reveal where we belong. Remember, faith is for impossible things.
QUESTION – If I may be clear, you said the voice of coronavirus will be silenced by the end of this month. Are we right?
ANSWER – Well, I will not blame you, because you live by what you see and what you hear. I am telling you what is to come. Thank God you cannot change it, because people are profiting from the situation at hand.

He didn't say anything jor, it's only logical that things will get worst and worst then get better. This is not the first time a pandemic is happening.

The case of Nigeria is like that of a child named "Folorunsho" (meaning: God look over you) who decide to use the fronds of banana tree to climb a palm tree.

You know you lack the means to fight a full blown pandemic and most especially because the country has one of the most densely populated cities in the world but you continue to let foreign travellers and even native travellers into the country from hotspots with highly infected population. So, who will Folorunsho call upon to save him, after been so suicidal?

Then, schools also have to be closed. But before they close churches, they should prepare relief packages for Pastors and church workers who depend on the income that comes through the church. Most members don't remember to minister to their Pastors. Well established churches should also find ways to minister to their members if it happens.

Welcome development. We are totally in support of this. It's evident that this virus doesn't respond to all these useless religious prayers. Even Mecca and the Vatican city have applied same measures. Let's take precautionary measures on this Corona virus.
How about schools, markets, crowded banks??

What about the "large congregation" in our public buses?
Some buses have passengers squeezing themselves

Some churches are not up to the passengers in 1 BRT bus.

We need prayers. Why not shut government offices.

Too much show. Dont go near there. Leave religious gatherings out of this.

NYSC Camp was closed give us better excuse than Corona. Some in the north were told because of the insecurity in the NOrth East
