I am tired of the new cases

All I know is we will soon get over this las las.....God dey

We should understand that the testing or the amount of discovered covid 19 patients is different entirely from the reality. This people that are discovered today; some of them had the virus yesterday, some of them the day before... and those that would be discovered tomorrow, today already have the virus, and they do not merely have, they spread too.

You are alone in this battle, this battle for your life. No employer to give free lunch, no government to help, in some state, the officials see all of these as their opportunity to siphon funds, to wield power recklessly and your church or religious head cares little. They will regardless of reason, if the govt allows them, hold a million crusade to get their tithe and offerings.

It is you and your God, brethen. Anyone trying to reach you without a mask is a murderer and if you can, stay indoors and pray. Pray, that God gives our healthcare workers strength, guide the vaccine creators right and give our govt the wisdom to care and not abandon us.

The death is just increasing, for every ten released at least 2 person dies. I am very sure their are a lot of unrecorded deaths especially from the north. We need a vaccine fast

Total shutdown loading...

Lol 25k tests right? In how many months?
Covid has built a solid base in Nigeria while these politicians were trying to attract international attention.

I always look forward to the NCDC result before going to bed

Mad

Only a lunatic will call for a total shutdown where the number of deaths is less than 1,000 after over 3 months of the virus being the country...

The sham lockdown we had previously didn't stop the numbers from increasing...

Any new lockdown will breed another set of criminality because no man will watch and see himself fading away in hunger and govt should bear in mind that the one month lockdown will recently came out didn't work.
Declaring another one might cause civil unrest and mass robbing of people's shop in other to survive.
Secondly, govt should be conscious of what ds covid-19 lockdown can cause especially to many CEOs/MDs in company who are still nurturing the effect of wasteful lockdown dat caused us a lot as many company's are still retrenching their workers, some are owing salaries while some are preparing sack letters. Imagine loosing your job now as a family man or bachelor, is there any hope out there for you? Hunger will open you up and leave you expose to varieties of disease and suicide.
