Thank goodness you have finally agreed that some barbaric humanity in Nigeria are not worth sharing nationality with right?

Too much cow milk

I agree with the governor, lockdown is not the solution,for how long can you keep locking down states.Lockdown will only create hungervirus.

What is needed is massive testing, compulsory use of face mask, social distancing, isolation of confirmed cases.

When it hit you, don't come asking FG for 20billion.

OK we are watching with great interest

That's his business.

I think the governor is afraid of the backlash that follow such move by the teeming illitrate population of the state that depend on daily hustling to make a living, and the religious fanatic who must go to mosque.

Already doing in my own little way

Now, that's another reasonable governor we have over there.

After over 60days of the virus being in the country, Nigeria has recorded only 28 deaths. Hasn't God been so good to us

Coronavirus is NOT for Africa!
