Despite all these scientists alarmists
And the foolish WHO
Still no coronaVirus in our cities
God pass coronaVirus
God pass scientists
And no, it's not because of hot weather

Thank You Lord, because you've not put us to shame for we put all of our trusts in you
so, Nigerians worship God more? Or do we commit least sin?

Many of the "experts" here on NL have no idea what they are talking about.

Well, blame the Internet. Almost any joker can post a comment on just about anything even to the extent of making a fo*l of himself.

Hahahahaha

Yeah. I saw a picture of that family and I noticed something about them. But I wouldn't want to say certain things here. But I might have an idea why the virus did a clean sweep on them.

Let me just seal up my lips. smiley

Hmmm what makes u think u know why the virus did a clean sweep on them??
Say your mind, none of that family members are on Nairaland

Serious people yet they have 168 confirmed cases, on the other hand we have been able to keep ours very low at about 12 cases. You have an inferiority complex.
Ogbeni, e go soon clear for your eye. Don't be fooled by what you hear from the media. I am so so within the coming weeks the cases of corona virus in Nigeria will be massive. Na God dey help us for Nigeria because he known we lack ammenities that can help us. If corona explodes in Nigeria the way it has done it Italy, I swear within a month over 100 million people go die. Take that to the bank.

The breakdown of civilization. If things get dire enough everyone will take the most dangerous steps to keep potential foreigners out. Today it’s a back water mayor, tomorrow an Air Force jet. Don’t you get it?

Oh, is that what you mean?

OK.

But all this was unnecessary. The Mayor was simply acting beyond his powers, man.

If he has any concerns, which I simply believe he does, then he should forward it to the central authorities and maybe try getting them to order the airspace around that region shutdown. You can't continue preventing planes from landing by blocking the runway with police vehicles. Who gave him such powers?

The central authorities can do a better job at that. They don't need police vehicles or armoured tanks to do that. It's as simple as declaring or enforcing an airspace blockade or restriction and not a single fly will be able to get in.

The Mayor was just being a joker there.

If they relied solely on obedience to 'clearance from tower', my guess is they wouldn't resort to this desprate measure.

People like you will rather wait till we have 168 cases before you act. I'm not surprised why Nigeria is where it is today.
That's why you need to get education.
Tourism is a major revenue source for Ecuador. Imagine how many people (tourists) flock into the country from Europe and the Americas. So they are more exposed. Reason for the high number if cases.

Don't wait till we have 168 confirmed cases, else we all perish in Nigeria.

Re: Ecuador: Police Block Runway With Cars To Prevent Plane From Landing by Kevinsamba: 11:00am On Mar 21, 2020
Depends on how far the runway was blocked
Any pilot landing in this kind of scenerio is heading for disaster, skill not withstanding.

Watch the video
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mdsbltiTXjU

But the video shows a helicopter (precisely a Robinson R44) flying above them and not a plane.
If they wanted to prevent a plane from landing they would have infomed the aircraft a long time ago. Not when the aircraft is approaching to land. In fact it will be against aviation rules to prevent an aircraft from landing when it's on final approach without any concrete reason. This is not a ship that you can suspend at sea for days/weeks... The aircraft has limited fuel on board.
