NaijaRoyalty:
The federal government mentored them well.

NCDC are really cashing-out big time on this covid-19 bullshits.

Don't expect them to relax it anytime soon

There were enough test kits, but the commissioner wanted only 10 samples to be sent (to NCDC), while Dr. Uwah suggested 31, on the premise that it will give a true picture of the Covid-19 status of the state. An argument ensued, and the commissioner said: "thats how you tested and tested till Akwa Ibom became No.1 in HIV". " other States are not sending samples, you want to send 31".

The commissioner needs to be reminded that human lives are directly involved here, and not no. of votes cast.

wifeesnatcher:
i believe Covid- 19 is in Nigeria but I don't believe we have recorded 35 death most especially in Lagos and I never believe we have recorded up to 1000 cases



this country is just polluted with a lot of foolish people. imagine some rich politicians diverting money and items meant for the poor to themselves even though they've the money to buy them


very wicked set of black monkey

mojounited:

Interesting take. Someone I'm close to mentioned this too..

I think the state epidemiologist cannot be sacked or reassigned without the governor's consent. I believe the HC informed the governor who then authorised Uwah's removal. Why they are hell bent on minimising the number of cases in the state is beyond me - makes no sense.

SenecaTheYonger:


I believe the article up there is about lowering the number of covid19 cases in Akwa Ibom. I don't know if they're doing it to avoid causing panic, but one thing I know is that the fewer cases you have, the less money you will get from International partners and FG. So I don't see how they cuold be doing this for money.

Confirmedzombie:
Why is it that the SE Governors are playing politics with this virus.

I wonder how this people will manage there Biafra if granted.

You will never see Igbos comment in thread like this but they carry other states matter for head.

Shameless pigs

backbone503:


They started by disputing NCDC's test result, now they're playing dirty politics and endangering lives of millions. NMA and other health professional bodies in the state jointly passed a vote of no confidence on the HC. Its saddening that there is a pandemic and the governor is taking sides with a politician against a seasoned health professional over serious public health matters.
