I heard he apologized
Him egungun Dan enter express motor jam am

I guess the people accepted his apology, but Corona didn't

iamoyindamola:
Our politicians are magicians, they appear intelligent before election and completely lose the whole sense when in power.
Just look at this bros publicly spreading lies to his people about corona

I think what he's saying in the video is from the place of ignorance. He probably thought it was just all propaganda till the virus come visit am for house.

I can picture Corona virus sitting cross legged on a very soft sofa with a smile on his face while Seyi Makinde was waxing his first single in the video below

Can the masses survive this lock down for more than 2 weeks? Or you think Covid-19 will be eradicated in 2 weeks?

The government doesn't have money to buy enough test kits to do a lot more tests, but house of reps and senators could spend millions of dollars on new cars.

Any lock down in Nigeria that goes beyond 2 weeks could lead to a breakdown of law and order, anarchy. Hunger could kill faster than COV.

Just watch how people will stay put for that 2 weeks. Nobody would disobey the army except maybe Boko Haram.

gensteejay:
So how sustainable do you think the lock down is for a country like Nigeria?

You think it won't go beyond 2 weeks? Can the masses survive?

Do you honestly believe we have just 131 cases in the country as NCDC states?

Much more cases will still be discovered, and at the moment, I don't think Nigeria even has less than 2000–3000 cases of COV.

The main problem is, the people tested are too few, and others, who are asymptomatic and haven't been tested, are spreading the virus in their home, street (when they buy things from nearby shops), etc.

The lock down alone can't do much when the majority of Nigerians live in "face-to-face" apartments.

The lock down won't make the virus disappear, but it will slow down its spread. Let people stay home, show symptoms of the virus and get tested and treated. Allowing people move about spreading the virus will spell doom for us all.

gensteejay:
The power supply is extremely poor, and Oyo state government can toe the same path as Lagos as regards organizing giveaways for residents.

Suspension of VAT by FG. Suspension of the planned hike in electricity charges. Doing mass testing for COV like South Africa is planning to start.

(It's not as if my suggestions will work anyway.)

What's the point of a lock down when only a very small percentage of the Nigerian population are tested and treated if positive?

Honestly I think if you wait for all things u listed up there to come to fruition before restricting movement, I'm afraid you will have so many infected people walking around and when the symptoms come out full blown we will have a disaster on our hands.

I don't think the state government controls the power supply, I believe there is a private company who is charge of that; just like we have in Lagos ( Ikeja Electric & EKDC)

As for the giveaways/food package, I don't know about the financial buoyancy of Oyo State but I'm not sure Oyo State is anywhere near Lagos as far as availability of funds is concerned. Even Lagos State with over 15 million residents will only be catering for 200,000.

I believe the issue of mass testing not being the right move has already been discussed here. It was suggested that it is best people who have recent travel history or have contact with people who do and experinecing symptoms should be tested. Thos is to conserve the limited testing materials available(the scarcity of testing materials is not peculiar to Nigeria alone)

The pix below captures my thought on this whole stay at home order

gensteejay:
Why would they enforce it when the Oyo state government hasn't provided any palliatives for the people?

We can't go out to work, yet to stay at home and work from home is difficult when outages last several hours.

The lock down isn't simply sustainable in a country like Nigeria.

What would u suggest instead to curtail further spread of the virus. Bear in mind how people in crowded places like bus stops, markets etc can easily lead to spread of the virus over a large population.

gensteejay:
The stupid lock down can't work in Nigeria, where basic amenities are lacking.

In my area around UI, power outage has been going on for over 16 hours now, and the heat is intense.

How long can one stay at home when light no dey? It can't work.

If the army or any of the other members of the armed forces are drafted to enforce the stay at home, trust me if will work.

Nigerians fear members of the armed forces than even witches & wizards

1) Possibility of False negative. Either through poor sampling technique, low viral load, or just pure dumb luck.

2) Ori yato sori. There is a guy on ashewo thread who has been watching it flow out like a boss for the last 550yrs but says he has never had an STI.
People have varying levels of immunity and resistance to illnesses.

3) He and Chioma were in the middle of 1 month dry fast and have not been near each other recently.

1. I'm suspecting this might be the case.

2. That guy is just out to troll. He's just like the anti.riot guy and his 6 figure salary trolling back then.
3. Davido that smokes weed every now and then will be on dry fast .

airmark:
He made a terrible mistake allowing that rally to hold.

I pray that Corona doesn't turn Ib to Bergamo.

I pray o, cos I doubt most people around that side even take the virus serious like that. I don't even think people over there go about with Hand sanitizers and face masks like we do in Lagos

iamoyindamola:
Davido, Taye currency, Buhari
How these guys are walking freely I don't know

That Davido own is just puzzling. He's had close contact with two different people that has tested positive ; one of whom is his spouse and yet he's negative. How?

afrodoc2:
That one na foolish governor. I was believing the hype about him until he held his political rally in the middle of corona season. His brain is garbage in garbage out.

With the kind of leaders we have in Nigeria only Jehovah Jireh can save us. Even the ones that are meant to be smart and progressive are actually dullards in intellectual skin.

I was one of those that kept on rooting for him going by how he's been taking some decisions like suspending activities of NURTW guys and the likes.....I was equally disappointed in that stupid rally he held.

Dem bode George now sef, only God knows if dem never Carry am too

airmark:
Taye currency already confirmed?

Davido being positive is still wondrous to me. Weed dey comot this thing?

I don't know Taye cureency's status for now, but u knkw people like that may not really go for the test untill they are sick.

And yes there's the angle of Davido too. I really don't know how Davido is negative ó. Doctors should enlighten us on that

gensteejay:
The stupid man would have circulated the virus during the PDP SW Mega Rally held some days ago in Ibadan.

I don't know how this useless government expects us to survive staying at home. No light for over 14 hours now, and one can't even work from home.

That rally was really unreasonable. I just hope all the pdp southwest leaders in attendance have gone for the test too. People like Bode George who are not that young should better get tested and know thier fate on time

airmark:
Brother Seyi o, who infected him now?

Taye currency I suspect. He came back from the UK and didn't self isolate but attended the rally brother Seyi organized.

The other way he could've been infected is if he had been in contact with UCH director or his deputy who both tested positive already

In other News, GSM Don test positive to coro

That rally was just unnecessary. I'm sure Taye currency would test positive as well

Late night snack.



Wack all the left overs

Ah bros when this thing wan digest? This is not late night snack ó, it's late night heavy meal.

Spy360:
You believe this?

I can say you are stupid. Then come back grinning that I didn't mean it. Believe me.

So everything now boils down to believe/assumptions....Issokay.

I res my case

Sod09 how far....Even in Isolation Ur guys still dey collect that trademark shake

Spy360:
What's the piece meal about an offer?
As at then, that was a fairly huge fee. We paid same for Ozil didn't we? In fact we had an agreement in place to sign Higuain for just 25m. We lost the Higuain deal th moment it looked possible to get Suarez instead. We ended up with Ozil.

You honestly think getting players who are surplus tí requirements at their clubs is the same thing as getting a player who is his club's best player.

In one breath u are talking about we seeing the possibility of signing Suarez and in that same breath u are convinced we deliberately added £1 to the £40m bid. Even when the person who oversaw the bid specifically said we didn't mean to disrespect them with the bid....smh

Eruditor:
Yo, I got more information on this. Apparently, Davido paid NIMR to get him and his buddies tested. NIMR are running the test as well but at a price. Although, they claim they are not using the material supplied to them from NCDC. Only God will know if they are lying.

Wò, let's leave them to their conscience. Whoever is lying amongst them knows they are lying.

Spy360:
After RVP didn't we sell Sanchez? For your information, more deals will still happen between both clubs. Hate it or not.

If we get United to pay over 50m for Aubameyang at his presence age and contract situation, missing it would be silly from us. That's where sentiments is put aside.

Players have been moving from one club to the other, but sensible clubs make it a habit of not selling their best players to rival clubs.

Sir Alex did that and the books still balanced. Arsenal is not struggling financially, so it makes no sense selling Ur best player to a rival club when u are not assured of getting a player that will step into his shoes and hit the ground running.

Spy360:
The £1 was insulting but that was not what scuffled the deal. The clause wouldn't have led any where. The deal was never going to happen as Suarez had two years left of his contract then. Liverpool were ready to hold him down for one more season.

People were against the one pound because it was spiteful. A deliberate attempt to make fool of Liverpool for foot dragging.

Liverpool were always asking for more even when their previous demands were met. Hence the option to activate the clause not knowing there was really no clause.

Which previous demands exactly? Arsenal was bidding piece meal by peice meal for a 26 year old striker who was arguably the best striker in Epl and amongst the top 5 strikers in the world as at that time. He scored 23 epl goals in 33 appearances in 2012/2013 season.

Arsenal in all wisdom thinks bidding £40m +1 is what will make the selling club sit with them at the negotiation table....smh.

That guy supposed ask who dey sell our team Marijuan.a wey dem dey smoke cos it's not regular.

Spy360:
Is it forbidden? Even those who run the club allow such deals not to talk of ordinary fan like me. You seem to be over sentimental about issues.

Where is the talk about sentiment coming from?

You actually think it's cool for arsenal to sell her best player to a rival who is looking for an attacker to complete their team....even when we all saw how Van Persie's sale came back to haunt us.

Na wa o. That u are entertaining the thought alone sef.....

Eruditor:
You are definitely right. However, note that Davido has a retinue of jobbers and henchmen that follow him and his fiancé around. If they don't get tested and were unwittingly spreading the virus, the blow-back would have been crazy in terms of contact tracing etc.

Also, Davido is connected. Any of his "uncles" like Dangote can put a call through to Dr. Chikwe or the Health Minister. You know how Nigeria works.

Yeah, I get. It's just normal Naija level, nothing has changed

Jodera:
At least we all know Sanchez was flopping here before he moved to man u.
Van persie didn't flop and he shone at man u, why do you think auba will flop at man u wen he's also shining presently at arsenal

I don't even understand why a fan would want his club to sell their best player to a rival team; a rival team that is one player short of being a title contender o
