It's time we address claims by Buharist clowns that because Nigeria has recorded just 2 death and 155 infections because of Buharis good leadership , this is huge lie and we will put an end to it today !!.

My first question I ask is can zombies tell us what the Buhari govt has done well so the Americans can emulate him and learn , the truth is Buhari has done nothing infact pound for pound his performance in this Covid crisis is one of the worst pro rata.

Why does Nigeria actually have lower numbers :

1 : Traveller inflow : in the first two months of 2020 America had already received over 58 million international travellers while Nigeria recieved about 485 thousand passengers , from this statistics you can see America has received over 100 times more people than Nigeria so is more likely to have imported more infected people but when we take the percentage of infect ion per mille we fine out that America has 0.02% per mille while Nigeria has 0.03% per mille which means Nigeria imported more infections per thousand at 155 confirmed cases today and if I go further and use the wild estimations that some 5000 infections might be runnings wild it the brings Nigeria imported infection per mille to over 1% which is a lot

2: Number of test carried out ; another reason why Nigeria seems to be spotting far lower numbers is due to the low number of testing don't compared to America.. America has tested over 135 thousand people while Nigeria as at today has just test slightly over 200 meaning while America is testing over 300 people per a million of it's population Nigeria is test just 2 people per million so Nigeria is likely to see fewer cases .

3 : Low Transmission and lethality ; Another reason why the rates are low in Nigeria is that for some reason the virus has a slower or weaker rate of transmission and lethality in Nigeria and this might be due to a lot of factors like weather , humidity , genetic make up , diet and most probable to me the absence of any active 5g signal above 24Ghz ( this is for smarter folks so average folks can stand down please )

4 Lack of adequate data base requisite for contact tracing : many contacts have not been traced due to poor address systems and inadequate data base of contact thereby making the issue of contact tracing more difficult and making the numbers of confirmed cases lower .

5 : Self Medication : Nigeria is well known for self medication and data seems to suggest that many patients with similar symptoms as COVID has chosen to knock it off as common flu and self medicated their way out of it with the support of their youthful immunity ( twitter is filled with such stories )

6: Youthful population : Nigeria due it's high ratio of youthful population with Youthful immunity might be acting as a stumbling block to the person to person transmission rate in the country as most youth have the capacity ward off COVID infections without even throwing symptoms .

Gentlemen with these few points I hope you can see that there is nothing special the government of Buhari is doing to stem this crisis instead the the Buhari govt has contributed more to escalating it to where it is today in Nigeria with their reckless behaviour of late travel restrictions till their kids got back home and Federal govt aide even going as far as importing infections and spreading it within govt circle ...I must not fail to commend the stellar leadership in this crisis of the Lagos State govt because they set parameters and template for tackling this which other state Govts have quickly mirrored and which has greatly help but as for the Buhari govt I don't see a single special standout thing they did infact they where late to to the table and only came after Lagos had taken the initiative to bear the index case at it's own risk and initiative

Instead of lying all over the place and peddling false and bogus info because you hate Nigeria, this is what we want you to peddle if you really care about Nigeria.

#Takeresponsibility.


Young man our superior genetics (thanks to malaria, yellow fever and typhoid ) is one of the major reasons the covid-19 is not spreading like mad and the fatality rate is low.

Secondly our testing capacity is extremely low. Less than 100 test in a day and we currently have about 159 cases. What do you think will be our statistics if we are capable of more than 5k test in a day.

Because they are testing more people than Nigeria.
The more you test, the more confirmed cases u will get because most people that have it doesn't show any symptoms that's why WHO Emphasized on the needs for countries to test as many people as possible

The weather and genetics ( Not Government) is one of the reasons we will not experience Italy and Spain predicament.

As of Ghana having more cases than Nigeria I challenge you to compire the number of test being done in Ghana and that of Nigeria.

Zombie do you know the number of people killed by lassa fever this year alone?
If you attribute the low infection rate to gov's proactive actions, why don't you also accept that it's the wailers that deserve the best praise for pushing govs to take those actions. When wailers were pressing for border closure, you zombies were defending govt. When wailers were asking govt to address the nation, you zombies said no need for such.

Conversely, you can also explain to us why that is not happening. Has the govt vaccinated people against the virus or fumigated the Nigerian airspace. Think bro, think. Don't be a zombie.

1. We are talking about CV-19, not LASSA fever, stop moving the goal post.

2. You did not push the government to do anything, the FG do what they do based on facts and credible reports tendered by government agencies, not any rant or wailing by by you and your fellow wailers.
