Coronavirus is nothing compared to what poverty and hunger have done to them.

There are now 13 deaths but 17 uncomfirmed deaths which is one of the highest in west africa thanks buhari.

kano, 21 confirmed case. Blood of Jesus

..

I am deeply concerned about the development in Kano,because they have very low numbers of doctors and equipment compared to their population.Fatality rate may be very high due to poverty, illiteracy and very weak health system.God help us all

Kano didn't even discharge any before recording a death..

Shows you that it will be bloody there

I pray that their population which use to be a political blessing to them dont become a curse to them in this covid19 pendamic

The story making the rounds have it that the returnee from US, male, aged, and a retired diplomat tested positive to the virus in Lagos. He attempted to and was able to bribe his way and was let off to return to Kano, while no one in Kano was informed.

Upon returning to Kano, he didn't tell anyone of his status and began mingling with people. He even went for the crowded Friday prayers.

Somehow, he was discovered two days ago. Since then, aggressive testing and isolation has begun in Kano. The state is locking down all their borders today and is set to ensure a full lockdown.

But it appears the man did a whole lot of damage already. Expect more numbers from Kano today.

Now is when they really need FG's support.

On another note, Wike is being vindicated...
