This second wave is more deadly than the first.... The victims don't even have time to say their last prayers unlike before.

Sad thing is that, it is only wiping out relevant people from our country while Irrelevant people like the marauding Fulani herdsmen and one cow lover from daura walks freely without contacting it.


Sleep well sir, may God give your family the fortitude to bear the loss.
