What do you expect? Mr president is not learned, he's not acquainted with the scope of the virulence nor any approach to curtail it. Baba is old and deteriorating. He doesn't fit into modern leadership.
He should allow the vice president to step in on this...

Sit at home is good. Health is wealth

But where is the welfare package put in place to ensure citizens are properly okay during sit at home.

Not everybody sitting at home work in a white collar job that can afford to stock up food and sit at home comfortably.

Sit at home and stay safe from covid19, but die from hunger sitting at home.

Unfortunately your country is not built to that standard, where such palliative works like developed Countries where they have educated literates and decipline society, not in Nigeria where there's no database of the people, where there are so many educated illiterates, where corruption is the order of the day.......
That's the unfortunate situation

wetin dey worry all this stupid people sef, PDP are just too irritating, Jonathan succeeded in destroying PDP by sending away their sensible founding fathers, replacing them with foolish drunkards like himself

In US Democrats Independents and Republican have both shunned petty politics to work out plans for their economic recovery, disaster management and relief plan

if PDP are sensible, since they felt Buhari's speech and plans he itemized are not enough or they felt he doesn't have the power to place curfew on Lagos and Ogun, then they should tell Nigerians what other plans they want him to do

Oga read first before u begin spill rubbish, Timi made some valid points. Aside shutting down some states, taking bout social distancing and stay at home (which we all know already), what other specific measures did the president talk about?
What strategy did he dish out to make sure people don't die in their homes?
Even the welfare packages which was supposed to be deployed to help people in need was highly ignored
Read before u criticize, think deeply but u no gree.
Timi made some valid points
I mean, what did Buhari say that we all didn't know?

Indeed bro. Today I have busied myself in my area spreading info and urging folks to prepare.

I have been sensitizing folks about the need to look beyond Covid-19 alone and have malaria drugs and paracetamol in the house in case anyone falls ill during the 14 day quarantine period.

Untreated malaria can kill too. I have even bought my gateman malaria medicine, food, water etc for him in his boys quarter.

Positive people should be doing practical survivalist preparation today and making themselves useful to their immediate society and not spreading fear and despondency as some of these vengeful and unrepentant haters are doing.
You've done well and spoken well my brother.

Your good deeds to people around you during this difficult period would forever remain in their hearts.

This is how it should be because the deed (covid-19) has been done already and this is not a time for showing hatred because of our differences or pointing of accusing fingers.

Together, we will all overcome this global challenge.

Press Release
30/03/20


Former Deputy National Publicity Secretary of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Comrade Timi Frank, on Monday, described President Muhammadu Buhari’s pre-recorded broadcast to the nation on Sunday evening as a monumental embarrassment to Nigerians.

Frank in a statement in Abuja, said that Nigerians were disappointed in Buhari’s speech because it fell shamefully short of a “presidential crisis broadcast” compared to what world leaders are offering to their citizens at this time.

He said that Nigerians would have forgiven the President if he had stuck to his decision not to speak to Nigerians on efforts being done to contain the spread of the Coronavirus (COVID-19) in the country, instead of being “wide in generalities and short on specifics.”

Frank said: “The broadcast was worse than COVID-19 because it failed to outline a specific roadmap on how Nigeria can win this invisible war.

“Any measure from the Federal Government that does not advance Nigeria’s response to the COVID-19 will ultimately hurt Nigerians.

“The President has not only lost precious response time, he is yet losing time while the rate of infection is steadily growing in the country.

“Nigerians were highly disappointed that instead of a live broadcast - with the media given the opportunity to seek clarifications for the benefit of Nigerians - the President opted for a pre-recorded and stilted message.

“He only played back to Nigerians what most experts have recommended and which many state governments have already started implementing.

“While Ghana with about 28 million population is attacking the pandemic with $100 million, Nigeria with over 200 million people is approaching the virus with a paltry N15 billion which translates to roughly $40 million going by the prevailing exchange rate. Are we being serious and responsive here?”

He commended the Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), Godwin Emefiele, for appealing to Chief Executives of commercial banks to support the Federal Government’s fight against the pandemic.

He however called on individuals and corporate bodies that have pledged financial assistance to contain the virus in the country not to handover such funds to the administration if they don’t want their hard earned resources looted.

“They should rather partner with individual state governments to ensure that the funds are prudently spent like the example that GTBank has done in partnership with the Lagos State Government by erecting a 100-bed hospital for the isolation and treatment of confirmed cases,” he said.

According to the Bayelsa-born political activist, “Buhari only told Nigerians what they already knew - things many state governments have already implemented. Yet, all palliatives promised by the President will be delivered in ‘coming weeks.’

“The President failed to tell Nigerians about the testing capacity of the Nigeria Centre for Disease Control (NCDC) that is leading the charge against this deadly virus in the country.

“How many people can the NCDC test per day and what medical exigences are needed to successful treat confirmed cases and ensure that they resume their normal lives?

“How many people are going to benefit from
the conditional cash transfer. How many IDPs will benefit from the two months food rations being planned by Buhari in ‘the coming weeks?’

“Nigerians are aware that the school feeding programme of the Federal Government has performed wonderfully in theory. How does the President want to feed children that are not in school?

“Buhari restricted movement in Lagos, Ogun and the FCT for two weeks, however, he failed to say when most civil servants especially in the FCT that have not been paid will receive their salaries.

“How are these categories of workers expected to cope with the lockdown without a Kobo in their pockets?

“All over the world, no government has restricted media coverage of the ongoing pandemic, but Buhari said those in Abuja and Lagos can only move if they can prove they cannot work from home!

“Do media houses operate newsrooms or broadcast stations from the homes of their respective employees?

“I think Nigerians deserve something better from their President in the the face of this global scourge.”

He saluted Nigerians for their resilience in this trying moment and prayed for quick recovery for those undergoing treatment as a result of the virus.

He also urged Nigerians to intensify prayers for the pandemic to cease in the country.

Is it not plain stupidity and wickedness for salaries not to have been paid by now? How do people survive? Elsewhere, government are giving out free monies to their citizens or at least paying salaries early, yet this stupid administration will wait till April to start paying March salary.

Clean enough to criticize and cast aspersion on any government? Timi and Ffk should continue, insult the president all you want with the support of your Igbo fans.. What goes around comes around.

You guys just know how to throw up doom, gloom and pessimism. You never offer solutions or make positive suggestions.

It is a whole day this very urgent and badly needed curfew was announced. Many should use this period proactively to prepare. Join relatives or friends if possible to pool resources and conquer hunger, loneliness or despondency.

Speak to neighbour's and talk about your fear or handicap be it money, transport to get food and water or homelessness. Whatever. Just reach out.

Don't just sit around and accept death as inevitable. Not the time to talk about years of misrule or how many of our people came to be in this position. This is simply time to act to keep ourselves and others alive and hopeful.
OK, I don't have any family member in Lagos to reach out to or join.Now I can reach out to you for help I need 5k just for this week Sterling bank 0059634662.

Shut up and stop displaying grass arrogance. PDP should lay better plans to Buhari? Dummy, you don't know your president. What has he done with the numerous advise and plans he has been given by individuals and groups?

Someone that was forced to at least talk to Nigerians in this pandemic. Is it now his mates are addressing their citizens?

He talked about continuing the school feeding program. For children that are home abi. He is locking down States. He doesn't know many of these states have been locked down since.

He is not even aware of what is going on. He was forced to give that broadcast, a pre-recorded broadcast at that

Is it not plain stupidity and wickedness for salaries not to have been paid by now? How do people survive? Elsewhere, government are giving out free monies to their citizens or at least paying salaries early, yet this stupid administration will wait till April to start paying March salary. People should die at home?
