I don't think Abba Kyari knew at this point that he would one day be Chief of Staff to the President.

Early days of life.

Presidential Spokesman to President Buhari, Bashir Ahmad has shared a throwback picture of the late Chief of Staff to the President, Mallam Abba Kyari and wife.

Mr Ahmad commented on Young Kyari’s dress code, tweeting; "This throwback picture of Mallam Abba Kyari and his wife ‘possibly’ on their wedding day confirms the late Chief of Staff had maintained his very simple dress code for many decades."

Igwe Umenyiora, I ga adi!! See social distancing. See exemplary leadership by Ezedioramma Umenyiora. See how big the sacks of food are! And this is an Igwe, not a government!

Great move!

The Zlatan of Nigeria.

Bashir Ahmad is firing on all cylinders these days.

Music superstar Zlatan Ibile has come under fire from President Buhari’s spokesman, Bashir Ahmad over his reaction to the Covid-19 announcements from the National Centre For Disease Control, NCDC.

Zlatan, in reacting to the news of 86 new Covid-19 cases, with 70 in Lagos, posted 4 smileys possibly signaling a laughter of unbelief.

But Mr Ahmad would have none of it, as he quickly slammed Zlatan with the following words: Continue reading

Lagos is in tears.

Let us pray for an end to Covid-19. People are suffering. God help the people of Nigeria.

clevvermind:
I wish them speedy recovery. As they are helping others, so God will help them.

Amen. That's a very good prayer.

Is it that people are still going to their offices, or what? Where are these people rushing to, biko nu?

Heavy traffic has been spotted on Third Mainland Bridge just hours after it was announced that Lagos has 70 new coronavirus infections. Na wa o. Photos of the heavy traffic.

Funke Akindele's guidance here is timely, considering the fact that Lagos just hit 70 mew cases in 24 hours.

Famous actress Funke Akindele Bello, who has been in the mouth of Nigerians over social distancing or its absence has come out with a powerful reaction on the issue, and Twitter commentator @OgbeniKufo has also spoken up strongly in support of the charismatic actress.

IGNORANCE IS BLISS.

Meaning? Why the proverbial statement?

Not only that, Lesotho has no single covid19 - yet they've had real 5G since 2018! See below

This is a point.

James Bond things.

Senator Ben Murray Bruce was pictured looking alert like James Bond as he and other family members were pictured with guns. Even his daughter was holding a pistol.

It is not known if the Ben Murray Bruce family were trying to pass a message, but the commonsense senator simply wrote:

Never a dull moment...

The video linked to below shows an angry mob freeing prisoners from a police station said to be in Ohafia.

High stakes politics

Lagos keeps topping the coronavirus league. Yesterday was 23 new cases. And these are only the official figures.

What’s more, Lagos, arguably Nigeria’s commercial nerve centre, keeps exporting cases to other states as people travel low-key from Lagos to other parts of the country.

The cause of the high number of infections in Lagos is that the state has been locked down without adequate relief materials for many staying at home.

Daily income earners still have to go out because without going out, their family members and themselves will starve. Going out exposes them to more risk of contracting coronavirus.

Several people have been robbed and their foodstuff and money taken from them because there is hunger in the land. Those victims have to go out to see how they can bring back food into the house. Going out exposes them to more risk of contracting coronavirus.

I fear that more people might be tempted to go out as the lockdown is extended and their food supplies run thin. Going out might expose them to the risk of contracting coronavirus.

Ordinarily, lockdown is a brilliant idea, and would have made Lagos/Nigeria global celebrities, because if coronavirus doesn’t see who to infect, it will just expire.

Unfortunately, the lockdown has been badly handled so far. That’s why Lagos, has hundreds of new infections.

When you allow people to become so hungry and desperate that they struggle to grab food anywhere they see it in abundance, infections might multiply in the huge crowds created. And this is not election season where crowds are welcome. This is Covid-19 pandemic season for crying out loud!

Crowds must be discouraged, wether in day-time or night-time. And the only way to discourage such crowds is to send abundant food to those who need it.

Either you imitate President Trump who’s sent the equivalent of N462,135.12 to each American resident, or you send it in form of food. But you must... Continue Reading

Its not easy

Even exempted businesses are complaining. No customers.

According to the video, the Chinese have run into a house for safety. Chaos everywhere. A voice said a man who was shooting in self defence has run.

The proverb that says a hungry man is an angry man has never been so true.

The video below shows rioting has broken out in the Ogun the Ogun-Guangdong Free Trade Zone area, Ogun.

According, to IgboDefender preliminary investigations a Chinese company had a disagreement with workers over payments and gunshots were fired, leading to the rioting.

The video shows property belonging to the company being destroyed.

The government really needs to source for money/food fast to give the masses. Imagine what foreign investors will think about this! Watch
