[quote author=wwwihy post=87772514]There should be a book with the Title " Nigeria Elites and Foolishness: Lessons from COVID-19"[/quote]I love this, ànd really I'm interested... especially the part that says "lessons from covid-19". I pray we will live to tell the story sooner than later in Jesus name

Just wondering why the birthday party couldn't be postponed, when 2020 academic conferences have all been postponed or cancelled! It's even worse that our stupid polithiefcians will never miss any opportunity to launder money, flaunt their loot and shop abroad. Even the streets abroad are not smiling, why can't they just stay put for sometime and stop gallivanting up and down, wasting the few available test kits and overstretching the already fragile healthcare facilities

These people and their rule-by-force attitude! What a whack mentality

What happened to the drug they gave the 'Italian' that made him eat Amala and ewedu within a week? They are not updating us on their treatment progress again

achi4u:
You're not making any sense at all, Lagos is already in a deep shitt and can give him better health care and if worst to,let him die in Lagos.

So, because Lagos is in deep poo, they should sink even deeper? Did Lagos State send him to China? Why is the center in his state not ready before the outbreak?
Please read again, this time slowly...then point out the sense in your post

NLReposter:
I want to believe that is not true.

He doesn't even need to build one, he could've just picked out a few, maybe one in each state or geopolitical zone and bring it up to world class standard! But I guess they never knew they were going to be forced to look inwards for treatment

I will never rejoice over anyone testing positive for corona virus, but it's just sad how our polithiefcians are treating the masses

Johnsinia:
You have a comprehension problem brother. ok, let me help you explain in broken English: de govano Dr Umahi said dat the state has already prepared isolation centers and they don ready to tackle de virus but that de only thing way remain na to get the virus testing kits way dey don ordered Tay tay, he said de kits will arrive the state on 1st April. He say for now na only Lagos, Abuja and Edo get the virus testing kits. in summary isolation can not be possible in the state now without testing kits. that's why any suspected case are either taken to Abuja or Lagos. Hope you ve comprehended.

But if you are looking for who to blame blame the health minister who was making mouth b4 that .they are prepared to tackle the virus while they have done nothing

Thanks for the pidgin, I'm conducting a qualitative study on the use of pidgin English as an effective means of communication...if I need a field assistant, I'll contact you.
POC, you're talking to a PhD and I'm just upset because a more responsible government will not wait for an outbreak before planning an isolation and treatment center.

Omoluabi16:
Arrogance. They felt invincible. The UK, US and other countries were not on lock down 10 days ago. They probably assumed they'd run there for their quality healthcare.

Abi o

noblealuu:
Keep quiet and reason with sanity. Would you rather prefer he travels and spreads it on transit? The Governor said the Virology lab in the state will be operational from April 1. Lagos has a testing centre and should he test positive, a case is arrested rather than spreading it across board.

Keep quiet too, Anuofia

okpalaAnambra:
Shut up..Igbos developed Lagos and we have decided to use Lagos as our experimental and testing ground..deal with it

Just so we are clear before you shut up, I have no problem with Igbos, at all. But I have a problem with governors who are not responsible enough to prepare for rainy days

Omnivalent:
most of our girls trekked there,
how can they trek back?

They closed the Sahara desert?

SirLakes:
Read and comprehend!

He ordered him to remain in Lagos.

Meaning, he arrived in Lagos from China

If the man is infected and decide to travel down to the state for isolation, do you know how many people that will get infected through his journey from Lagos to Ebonyi

SMH

You read and comprehend!
Why did he go to China?
Why stay in Lagos to add to statistics? Why doesn't the state have its own isolation center? Where does the selfish governor expect him to stay in Lagos, or do you think testing and subsequent treatment is automatic?

Omnivalent:
how will they return?
baba...
stop saying what you don't know.

How did someone return from China They should Sha go straight to their various states

Every state should have the capacity to screen and isolate suspected cases also they should have treatment centres. Don't carry your wahala and burden Lagos with it

Witcher:

He went to China amidst the corona pandemic, and your idiotic brain did not tell you to isolate him in your state? Why must he stay in Lagos? So, you prefer he infects Lagosians, forgetting you also have so many of your people in Lagos! Why do we have selfish and wicked leaders? Why?

Who is talking about the well-being of doctors on the front line? Who is talking about how my husband will be protected? Nepa and now you? Are you guys that exposed? I'm angry at the stupid doctors for not demanding for protective gears...and yes,my husband is a doctor and I'm worried

Generator fumes maybe. This is so sad

Abba Kyari is still receiving treatment, Aisha should thread carefully lest she gets caught in the middle of something serious

BTW, is it possible for Aisha to order someone fired just like that when he's not a domestic staff at Also rock? Just curious

oforjide:
point of correction ur leaders fulani caliphate

Your leaders sir...I'm not a Fulani woman, neither am I a zombie

See our so-called leaders sitting packed like canned fish, without any form of protection against corona virus! Who does that? Is it illiteracy or stupidity?

Useless people. They'll take over and increase price of essential commodities after they've stolen more than enough

We will not need your help in Jesus name!

See how they packed them like sardines with none wearing masks or handgloves

Freehuman:
This message is a reply. The comment which my argument replies was given in a Coronavirus thread . This reply is valid, factual and does not break any rule of Nairaland.

As a concerned nairalander, I think your point is lost in the number of times you posted this! It's on all covid-19 threads even when nobody argued with you. Please stop flooding the site with your rhetoric

skylarr:
I wish him sound health. Truth be told, Abba Kyari acted reckless. Despite travelling to a country with the outbreak of the virus, he came back and refused to quarantine himself, disregarding the advice of the NCDC. Now he is putting a lot of people at risk. Very irresponsible of him

Well, maybe Abba Kyari was reckless, but Yuruba people will say; Ilu ti ko si ofin, ko lesi ese (Where there are no laws, no crime). Shame on the so-called NCDC, Minister for health and the other people involved in the fight against covid-19 for not putting down their feet and following up on people coming from high-risk countries, ensuring they comply with the rules of self-quarantine and all that! It's not that hard, other countries are doing it. Those polithiefcians know they won't be bothered, so they are doing anyhow

Semi illiteracy is affecting our leaders

She doesn't need this... let's just pray for the country as a whole

The common man will see it but will not touch it. They'll put more than enough in Aso rock, allocate to themselves and the rest they'll give to their family and friends

God is our hope; let them keep the equipments and let God keep us, that's all we can hope for

Nikiballer:
E don happen ....
.
See if una divert that Ali Baba equipment and kits and no share am give hospitals,see na there the REVOLUTION GO START,better don't start what you can't finish...

No revolution...we are all toothless bulldogs and our leaders know it, besides, we hate each other so much we can never fight as a team

LibertyRep:
He probably must have contracted the virus while running errands for the President, poor him.

This life sha. Now they would be forced to use the same hospitals they hitherto treat with disdain and wouldn't even go near for ordinary headache.

Worstill, they would be attended to by the same medical personnels they deemed incompetent .

When this scourge finally subsides, greater lessons must have been learnt and our RULERS must have been humbled.

Forget it, our leaders will never learn


I pray we don't record any more covid-19 deaths in Nigeria in Jesus name. BTW, why Lagos? Why not UK or Germany? Or you take care of him in Abuja instead of depriving ordinary Nigerians of the limited space in Lagos!

cruxgemmata:
Whats going on. This is getting outta hand. If there is a NEW corona virus outbreak in China after experiencing that first one.

I think the virus is Mutating.

Gbege dey

It's not mutating, they are new cases imported to China by travellers

They should have left earlier when the borders were wide open...stubborn people

Been buying at 125 here in Ibadan since they announced the price reduction, but I'm suspecting these guys because I bought in a gallon yesterday and there was no difference in the quantity I bought and the quantity I've been buying in that same gallon at a higher price
