The cases in Kaduna is low because we have cleaner environment than Lagos.

Bros its not possible to evacuate such number and I won't be aware. I know many in different parts of this LGA and let me burst your brain a little. I attend CDA and other meetings and this are one of the issues we discuss there. Unless they evacuate them at midnight under disguise.

In your ignorance you think they evacuated all of them at once. It is sad this sort of intelligence permeates the youths of this country.

Mr Oga, the government is being proactive not to cause panic and avoid stigmatization against infected people. So it's been done secretly in most cases such that you won't even know.

From accounts I've read, you'll know only if the person chooses to be evacuated from his house. But for most people, they choose to be evacuated in places far from where they stay.

Stigmatization is a serious issues in this part of the world and the scar will live in your mind forever.

I was speaking with someone who sells in the market and he said despite the crowds in the market, he's never heard that anyone contacted it, and i asked him if he knows anyone who sells in the market but doesn't come to market this period because he travelled or he's not around and said ofcourse many. I then told him, anyone he had contacted in the market will only tell you he travelled, no one will tell you he contacted the virus because you market people will stigmatize such a person.

So don't just conclude.
