Have you reasoned that it's because of the last shut down that Nigeria is not like the UK or the America. Due to the failure of America refusal to shut down their economy within the span of 12 months they now have close to 20 million cases as of today. These are my questions.

1. If it takes America 12 months to get to 20 million, how long do think it will take for Nigeria to get to 20m?
2. Remember our public transportation is nothing to write home on, so how long will it take us to get to 20m?
3. Remember, Nigerians are lawless, so how long will take us to get to 20m?
3. Remember, our hospitals are nothing to write home on, so how long will it take us to get to 20m?
4. Remember, our markets is nothing to write on, so how long will it take us to get to 20m?
5. Above all, due to thinking like yours how long will it take us to get to 20m?

Your selfishness will cost us all.

...And what proof do you have that we haven't gotten close to that number of infected/carrier cases?!!

You think infected cases are only those who come down with severe symptoms?!! Are you testing anywhere close to the capacity of America and Europe?!!

Please, don't flatter yourself. We contained nothing, are containing nothing, and will never be able to contain a damn thing... Forget the media grandstanding of NCDC. They have to justify their high wages.

Ask yourself why state governors reneged on initial banning of crossover services... They knew the charade won't hold.

A total shutdown didn't achieve anything with regards to containment of spread, as it was not adhered to by almost all Nigerians. It only worsened the financial health of most Nigerians... It went on to set the stage for Endsars crisis. Another one will be simply catastrophic.

It's quite funny that it's largely the very affluent and privileged few that are calling for widespread restrictions and even lockdown.

Your fear mongering will cost us even far more!!! Fact!!!

crazygod:
I dey vez. Imagine I was shouting sef my baby woke up. Now I have baby duty till she sleeps
I repeat, Klopp is a mad man

Ahhhh... Double wahala!!!

CORE:
I made a conclusion on sth about Liverpool today which I have been suspecting for sm time. Mane and Salah hardly give each other goal scoring pass...instead they put it behind each other...That is their nemesis...dangerous internal competition..

True... One of them will have to go. It will more than likely be Salah.

Heard he is not that far from the exit door, with Barcelona, Madrid, and some others waiting eagerly.

solofresh:
As a Chelsea fan,sometimes am always jealous of man utd
Man utd still have a game at hand and liverpool is droppingpoint

United will still drop points, especially when injuries hit key players... Everyone go drop points.

This is going to be a closely competitive season.

crazygod:
Ogbeni Liverpool were not outplayed or out tackled. They just can't break that defence and luck was seriously on Newcastle side

So, you don't get sarcasm then... Oh well.

Fuckingmallam45:
My padi padi, wetin Liverpool Dey try to perform now

Brother... I just dey pity Klopp the most. 4 points out the window in 2 straight games. What a pity!!!

Newcastle just make them sweat and labour for nothing.

Sigh... Advantage, Man United!!! Sorry Klopp... Maybe you should have brought in Thiago and Shaqiri way earlier.

Veezy4u:
shame to good wetin then it's a shame having the likes of Burnley in epl Oga find somewhere sidown

Well... I am of the opinion that the qualification or promotion bar into the EPL be further raised.

I honestly don't quite get what League 1 teams like West Brom, Burnley, Newcastle, and Fulham are doing consuming oxygen in the league of Adults.

Even Andy Robertson don dey vex... This kind game can tire person.

Playing against a team literally doing nothing but defending can frustrate and annoy even the calmest player.

dammywapes:
Mane switch off today o first time wey i go see ham like that

We must be watching 2 different games... Mane is basically the one trying the hardest to eke out a goal.

Wordson:
Omo! Dis goal must come o... Even if we av to use hand throw ball for net... It must come!

Fear not... It is around the corner.

Toons can't keep up this silly bus parking!!!... Useless team. Playing shitty football. Mtchewww!!!

Veezy4u:
how the hell did they lose against Aston villa?

Aston Villa and Newcastle are not on the same level... Not even close.

Newcastle is not even on the same level as the lowest point Villa were last season.

Well, Liverpool suppose win this game. It will be unjust, unfair, and a shame to good football if they drop points tonight.

Wait o... Indaboski don join Nollywood?!!

Tamel:
We've been bad on our travels this season bro. Before palace , we'd only won at chelsea.

I see... Still, y'all should still stroll through King James tonight.

All these people shouting "Liverpool to lose", wetin dey happen na?!! Is there something I'm missing here?!!...

How the hell can Liverpool lose against Newcastle...

Babysho:
This is gonna be a tough one. Liverpool have been terrible at away games. Seriously confused as to how Milner is starting this game coming straight from injury and Jones who'd probably still be shaky from last game's mistake. I was hoping Chamberlain would start this game.

Thiago is on the bench so good for morale. Also, I honestly like that Wijnaldum's not starting today. I want to see the midfield without his side passes.

My prediction Newcastle 1-2 Liverpool

Terrible ke??! The epic desecration of Palace, did it happen at Anfield?!!

SultanOfPuna:
I just want to cum inside this girl on black..

You mean your toilet bowl you have been pouring it into all these while never do you?!!... Look for a brothel near you.

Just ban large gatherings let's hear word abeg!!!

That curfew should only apply for security issues, not viral containment... Abi the virus get break time?!!

olisaEze:
Guyman, people are not pissed at rich kids, they’re frustrated at the system!

Take a walk around and see 1st class graduates hawking to survive or working at mundane jobs while 3rd class children of the rich are well on their way to heading lucrative agencies and parastatals through a quiet word from one of daddy’s lackeys.

Why do you think the easiest way to dent a politician's image in Nigeria today is through his/her certificate?

The anger is not against any of those names up there but against a system that exalts mediocrity and treats merit to social distancing.

Nigeria is not India, we will not allow these politicians and their cohorts bring the caste system up North down South!

This comment should have far more likes than the post in itself... This is how smart people reason.

Not the people above taking sides without objectivity. Well done sir.

fkj950ax:
The fact that you chose to use this classification speaks volume

Indeed... It was in very poor taste.

XXXXTENTACION:
Hatred will not kill some people aswear.


since their fathers are not rich they decide to hate people whose fathers are rich and wealthy.


why not hustle and workhard for yourself instead of hating on people who are ten times better than you.

Hatred is bad... I agree with a lot of your points.

However, your last statement is kinda shallow (no disrespect sir).

Hustling and working hard is great, but not everyone will get rich through that whether legit or unlawful. Matter of fact, only few, tiny few, will become wealthy by "hustling"!!! Fact!

Besides, not every wealthy person hustled or worked hard as you might think... If there was truly a blueprint to becoming insanely wealthy, then why are there not more billionaires?!! Why are Nigerians so poor with all the hustling and hard work?!! How many people world over work as hard as an average Nigerian?!!...

What's my point here?!! Simple... The way forward is to teach people, especially young people, contentment and fulfilment. That is the way forward out of hate against those they perceive to be "better", not asking them to go work harder, as if they are lazy or unfortunate...

Finally, we need to stop measuring success using money as a sole yardstick. It is stupid and backward. It is also why there was a need for Op to create this thread in the first place. Cheers!!!

The issue is beyond wealth (monetary wealth)...

People in this class or group are largely the miserable and low self esteem individuals... Cos there are non wealthy people who are happy, and wish rich people nothing but goodwill.

These same people will likely still be bitter even if they happened upon wealth or increase... Bitterness is a disease; a terrible character flaw entrenched in ignorance.

Ignorance in the sense that being bitter at people who have no direct or even indirect hand in impoverishing or making them miserable is beyond stupidity!!!

I can understand hating on children or descendants of corrupt and greedy politicians (won't bother with examples), but people should be smart enough to differentiate between the legit rich and crooked ones; and also realize that rich kids (even from corrupt parents) shouldn't be made to carry their parents' crosses.

In all, it is largely the worsening state of the nation's economy... Things are getting worse. People who were financially comfortable have now become poor. It is quite a lot to ask that they don't hate on the few wealthy among them.

Airtimex:
Not really moved by (my team)man utd current form, at least not yet. but calling other teams midget is not entirely true, especially in England.

I still remember last 2seasons man utd won almost all their matches against top teams and managed a draw against Liverpool h&a yet man utd struggled for super4.

I can only tell you, na those small teams go fit give you premier League ticket. And na them hard pass to beat.

You are very correct here...

Ausval:
Everytime police brutality Police brutality ,but i don't see you guys posting how some people behaves when they encounter the police . Alot of times people get these police men agitated by insulting ,assaulting and makes it extremely difficult for the police to do their jobs , but nobody will ever post that. Have seen ladies raining alot of insults on uniform officers, making a whole lot of irrelevant treats but nobody will ever film that . have seen people trying to seize riffles from officials and in such situation when the official react ,it becomes police brutality ... If we want a good police system ,we must learn to be good citizens as well.. Police na person pikin too, Police na person papa/ mama too...let stop the unnecessary hate

This is also very true... I have had run ins with police men and soldiers. My first rule is respect and cooperation, not confrontation.

However, our police need better training on conflict resolution.

Litmus:
All Nigerian misdoing goes online in order to create the impression of Nigeria as Crime ridden thus creating in the minds of visitors and investors that it is safer to visit and invest in other West African nations. Those that are behind this either try to deceive Nigerians that what they are doing is highlighting crime in order to force authorities to combat them or deceive Nigerians that it is opposition politics.

All well-meaning Nigerians need to address these Social Media attack on Nigeria’s image. If you don’t care about jobs for you then care about your children’s future.

Trash!!!... There are more crime news from foreign nations like America, Australia, Britain, etc, yet they are doing exceptionally well.

Look for another excuse! Asking people to pretend away the truth will never work!!! Your leaders should do their damn jobs instead of chasing after people exposing their failings. C'est Fini!!!

This lady will need to do nose surgery.... this nose Don bend....ahh buhari thunder wey go fire you dey do press up

Not really... Na to shift the bone back to position, and place bandage or cast there for it to heal within few weeks.

Any bone doctor can easily do that with his/her trained hands.

No disrespect... But, this man needs to get a real job!!!

This posturing and fear mongering will never sell with the average, hustling, and suffering Nigerian! Give it a rest sir!!!

The only thing that will make January bad or worse for the average Nigerian is a worse economy with more job losses, not a fictitious "spike" in your version of a global pandemic.

Jonathan39:
Remove the bigotry and Niaraland is gone

Sure about that??!... I don't quite agree sir.

You can sanitize this forum, and it will still grow in leaps and bounds.

Dewaldg56:
I don't think it's anything to do with cultism. He is a person I know well and the surname is Amakeke not Amakel. He is usually a very quiet and peaceful guy. Business oriented and quiet. Often playing Scrabble outside his shop with my elder brother. I'm at a loss what could have led to this but killing him is never an answer for any beef

Did you just type that in bold??! Are you kidding me right now??!... SMH!!!

You seem to be the type who get easily fooled by appearances. Snap out of it!!!

Iniobong34:
Iyami! His close friends or relative might be the ones who denied him life. R.i.p bro nobody lives 4ever

...Or rival gang members!!!

This is clearly a gang hit!!!

Bennycollins:
Can you name those teams you refer to as top teams? I think we are left with only Liverpool to play from the top 5.

Perennial top teams na... Spurs, Chelsea, Arsenal, Liverpool, Man City, Leicester. You have not beaten them!!!

Charlex23:
There's no doubt man utd has so much improved as compared to last season. But the way they keep stressing on the issue of being title contenders is what baffles me.
Just so you know; the difference between man u who are currently in second and Southampton who are in ninth position is just 4 points , so a single loss by man utd anytime soon could see them drift from being tittle Contenders to a team striving to finish in top 4. In a nutshell i think it's still too early to discuss abt them being a tittle Contender. i could vividly remember how Chelsea and Tottenham fans were all over Nairaland being so assertive abt how they could win the league, but where are they now ?

Do you even understand what the term "Title Contender" means or fully implies??!... At game 16, it is becoming a bit safe to start seeing teams who genuinely have what it takes to mount a solid bid for the esteemed title.

Of course, it is early, but not out of place to see or point out those on track.... In this case or unique season of ups and downs, the first 6 teams are very much within bordering distance of the title.... It will very much likely be a close call, seeing the way most teams are dropping points weekly, including the main favorites (Liverpool). So, it is very much open to at least 5 teams... That was why last night's win was quite emphatic, timely, reassuring and highly vital to United (With almost every top teams dropping points).

So, United are very much in pole position to clinch this title if they maintain this form, vision, consistency, and run!!! It is quite simple na.
