Lagos government is always more proactive than the federal government in fighting COVID-19.

Fellow Nigerians, 2023 is coming, please vote wisely.

Reality is setting in gradually. Brace up guys, this lockdown fit reach 2023 with the level of incompetent hopeless Zoohari government we have. If they had shut down international flights sooner and shut the borders and made it compulsory for anyone entering the country to be taken straight to isolation center first for 15 days quarantine before being released into the society we won't be in this kind of serious mess. And it would have been far cheaper for the government to manage the costs than the HUGE expenses they are running now. Zoohari government is a disaster in the making.

If only we had like 15 states in this country that is functional like Lagos, then Nigeria as a country would have been better off than what it is today.

What a sigh of relief. I've always wondered how to get across the relevant authorities in case of any emergency.
Stay safe Lagosians!

Will you stop all this begging?
Shockingly, most of them create accounts just to beg undecided
New format everyday.

Feezluv, assuming you're genuine, don't you have people around you that could assist . Maybe your parents or a family member.

Modified: The post has been deleted. Please, let's reduce the amount of begging on this forum.
