Does this country still has a future so?

Not bad at a all. But Lagos can still do this

They are not serious

You are talking rubbish, you are talking in the rubbish, you talk rubbish, you are very talking rubbish, you are talking very rubbish

Yes, Master degree guarantees you a job in your father's company

This priority right now is misplaced

I have believed on this Covid-19 in Nigeria, i even advice people to stay safe this period

But right now, it seems I'm even confunsed on what to believe.

I really want you guys to be sincere, do you guys really think this thing is for real, a all the data given by NCDC.. And do you personal know anyone that have died from this virus?

He be like say watin happen for goat house don dey happen for fawl house o.

O lord, please save us

It is well...but do your best to stay safe

Ok

My apologies all

It is well.
All I can say, this scourge called corona virus will pass...May God continue to guide us and our loved once in this trying times

Easy to announce but difficult to enforce

This is Nigeria. They will still not adhere to it..nor be them again?..na them

Hope its not too late to say RIP

I know our that our government does not even know what they are doing again...planless planlessness

Hope the government can finish what they want to start

In as much as I want them returned, Nigerian government need to be very carefully. if possibke, they should be quarantined in the airport

I have been so close today to make a FTC....

I have drifted away...May God have mercy and draw me closer

Can you imagine? I actually forgot today is Sunday...

Nothing happens without Gods permission... Everything happens for a reason...
There is time for everything

Its only God that can save us from this scourge called corona virus.. We ask o Lord, that you forgive us all our since and cleans our land

We don't need to read it to believe... We already know

Still trying to understand why they are trying hard to convince us not to believe

He said, “We will eventually exit this stage and restart our normal life but that stage is still a while to come and I ask for your endurance

Thats after a lot of poor Nigerian must have died

It's realy not easy for health workers this period o

One million is about 5% of the population

Its a choice to speak good of the dead and not a must...everyone had their personal experience or relationship with him so it can be a same reaction

Unless their 4-point demands are met by the Nigerian Police Force, Delta state Command and the State government, Doctor and other health workers would remain on strike during the lockdown period.

Resident Doctors in Asaba, the Delta State capital have shutdown all their services in this period of Coronavirus pandemic to protest what they called incessant molestations and harassments by the Nigerian Police and to press home their 4-point demands, which they said Government must meet.

The group through its leader demanded that: Police and other security agencies must allow medical personnel free access to their places of work without molestations henceforth, that the items such as phones and other personal belongings, which they destroyed in the process of brutalizing its members should be replaced, that adequate security should be provided for medical personnel in the State capital and beyond and their safety guaranteed.

Briefing journalists at the Nigeria Union of Journalists (NUJ), Press Centre in Asaba, the President, Association of Resident Doctors, Federal Medical Centre (FMC), Asaba Chapter, Dr. Nwabunor Osifo, said they called on their members to down tool after critically analysing police brutality against their members, especially in this period of Covid-19.

He said a member was refused passage at Okpanam while on his way to work, even after proper identification.

He stressed that when the information got to them, some of them went to the scene to resolve the matter but in the process were brutalized and tear gas used on them, especially the Medical Director.



They bemoaned the paucity of protective kits for health workers as they fight Covid-19, urging the federal and state governments to ensure their protection and safety, especially at this time. They listed life insurance, increment in allowances and other incentives to be provided for them as obtainable for medical personnel in other countries.

Dr. Osifo maintained however, that even though the hypocritical oath makes it impossible for doctors to abandon their duties in a period of emergency such as this, their lives and safety were equally important.

According to him, "We are not callous, we feel for patients too. But our safety must be guaranteed first. We are humans too.

"Based on this brutality of our members on the part of the Police, we are declaring a total shut down.

"Though the Commissioner of Police, CP Hafiz Inuwa and the Delta State Governor, Senator Ifeanyi Okowa have waded in with a view to have the issues resolved, we will continue this indefinite total shut down of all our services until our demands are met", Dr. Osifo said.

In his reaction in a telephone conversation, the Commissioner of Police, CP Hafiz Inuwa confirmed the incident, but insisted he had settled the matter with the Resident Doctors in a meeting with them and the NMA Chairman and CMD of the federal tertiary health facility.

I don't think it is right though but I am certain it is not wrong either
