DStv has up to 2500 channels? Tell me something...

Wickedfact:
Olabisi Olabode, lying is a sin and you should not twist the Bible to defend lies. Remember, a liar is a thief.

Thank you for taking out time to find out my name, I'm sure it would have taken less time to discover the sarcasm in my comment...

Wickedfact:
Massachusetts Street in Uyo. Dumb liar.
With the kind of nonsense you typed, you can NEVER pass US visa interview. You need to improve your IQ.

FBI Nairaland division, can't a brother call into existence the things that do not exist in peace again?

I am eagerly waiting to see what some people will say or do when a new US president is sworn in on Jan 20, 2021.

OLAADEGBU:
He has to burn the candle at both ends.

He knows the courts won't grant his wild wishes on mere hear says and speculations. He'll rather play with the intelligence of his co-conspirators than prove his case in the court...

Rudy knows too well as a lawyer that these allegations should be taken to the law courts, not news conferences and denifetly not the court of public opinions...

shogsman:
Sey explanation difficult for you ni egbon,sey dem dey inaugurate president for white house,its obviously capitol na,trump and his cohorts makes up the white house, they're all getting replaced soon,that is a fuvking renovation sir,the context is very clear from the comment na.you trumpers won't calm down and comprehend

No it is not, but standing logic on its head is!.

I quoted where you said the "White House is under renovation"...

It is obvious you aren't humble enough to acknowledge what you said/wrote is wrong, so I'll leave you.

shogsman:
I'd argue with you,but it's obvious you trumpers can't discern words effectively. Read what you quoted and see where you're wrong

This is one of the reasons I don't usually argue with folks on nairaland.
Just because I took out time to correct the wrong information you shared, I must be a Trumper, how funny!
As we speak, the perimeter of The White House has non-scalable fencing around it. It was installed prior to the election on Nov 3.
Tell me when the picture of the "White House" you shared was taken.

shogsman:
I plied the subway regularly so I don't need you to tell me what the capitol is,I am talking about the total overhaul of the white house,the fact that the legislative sit of the country is in preparation of the inauguration should tell you everything

You cannot say Aso Rock is under renovation and share the pictures of the National Assembly.
Can you kindly tell me the name of the building in the picture you shared?

Whether Biden maintain his win or Trump stages a comeback through the back door, there will be a swearing-in by noon on Jan 20, 2021, hence the renovation or construction of the swearing-in platform.

shogsman:
See this ignoramus

My guy, you are the ignoramus here, the pictures you posted is the capitol building where congress members seat! Not all the white houses in the district of Columbia is The White House...lol.

I know for sure because I've been there twice! The capitol was under construction in 2016 and 2018 when I went there.

shogsman:
Construction currently ongoing in the White House in preparation of Biden swearing in,in case you're still stupid enough to think your mob boss will remain in power

My guy, both pictures you posted are that of the Capitol...lol, NOT the White house.
On one of your pictures. it is even boldly written "Area Closed, By Order of the United States CAPITOL Police Board"

planetx:
Ballot papers are printed by the department of homeland security not the states.

Elections in the USA is conducted by local authorities. There is no central coordination from the FG, USA also pratices true federalism. The Wall Street Journal says otherwise about the printing of ballot papers.

planetx:
The most rigged election in the history of elections in the US, mind boggling evidence of ballot tampering, erasing of ballot papers, non existent mail in ballot, dead people voting etc are pouring in. Trump just set a trap for them and they fall for it and all the legitimate mail in ballot have an invisible watermark like a currency paper. The supreme court will toss out this fraudulent election, I can bet my life savings on that.

Do you know that the elections in the USA are conducted by state authorities? So how exactly was the president able to put watermarks on all mail in ballots printed and managed by 50 different states?

Please do not waste your life savings...

YoonSung50:
is it paid before ?

Some people wrongly assume most things are free in America...but will be shocked when they are told that even the ambulance they get with a 9 1 1 call is at least $600!

Comedian2019:
I don't gave 75M at present. I'll wait for ten years when I will buy this same model for 4M.

2008 Mercedes-Benz C300 is even more than 4M...Who knows what the Naira/$ exchange will even be in 10yrs?

Hausa:
Hi, bro. Can I send you a mail?

Sure...

To those doubting or asking which country this happened...
Which other country in the world has more than 162,000 deaths from covid-19 complications?
This is the current situation in God's own country, the saner clime, USA.
The story is real but the blogger is only clever by half...

Maybe you won't be arrested but you will surely pay back that amount with crazy interest.

Remember all your bank accounts are linked through BVN, I'll advise you pay them back as soon as possible.

I see a lot of folks here still don't believe that this virus is real especially in Nigeria.

These doubting Thomas need to understand that the prevalence of malaria in Nigeria is the reason why most people test positive for malaria and also for Covid 19. Has there been anytime someone took a malaria parasite test in Nigeria and no trace was found?

To the best of my knowledge, samples of Covid 19 suspects are taken with swabs from their nostrils vs blood tests for malaria...only a handful of laboratories in Nigeria can test these samples. I seriously doubt there is any private lab in Nigeria that is currently testing Covid 19 testing, I stand to be corrected.

I hear every time that some folks want to know someone who knows someone who has died or contracted the virus...to be modestly responsible, don't people come here on nairaland complaining of hunger everyday? Has anyone of you asked to see someone who knows someone who died of hunger?

Stay responsible, be safe, stay safe and keep others safe!

Babapyro:
Your ignorance is on another level,usa has tested more than 50million people, in case you don't know that is more than 1000 times the number your safe country has tested.
It is ignorance like yours that makes me fear for what is about to befall us in the long run,I mean if a youth cannot even think constructively what is the country's hope then.

50million ke? Where did you pull that data from?

This is where you guys get it all wrong.

No government can lock the doors against the citizens of the country. Even if the borders were close since December 2019. The citizens of Nigeria would still have been allowed in.

The part where I blame the government was in isolating the returning Nigerians as they landed.

It is indeed laughable that the whole nation was not locked down because a few politicians were outside the country. Most of them would have rather stayed outside instead of returning to the chaotic health care systems that we have.

atonement12:
Total Lockdown will not solve this virus problem. If it could, USA and Britain wouldn't have had such massive increment in the rate of infections and deaths despite the facts that they started the lockdown before Nigeria and we're more discipline in keeping to it.
What Nigeria needs to do is to keep encouraging social distancing and banning large gatherings coupled with the use of personal protective equipment as initially announced by Lagos State government. The Federal Govt idea of total Lockdown is ill-thought, cynical and retrogressive and will only continue to lead to social and economic disaster for the people and nation.

The US has been able to reduce the projected 100,000 deaths to 66,000 largely because the epi-center of the spread, NY state, was locked down for about a month now.

I quite agree that the lockdown has been an abysmal failure in Nigeria because the time the government got was supposed to be used for massive testing, contact tracing, isolation and treatment of infected people.

However, we cannot rush to open the locked down cities, especially places where multitudes gather. The story of the 31st case in South Korea will humble whoever thinks this virus is joking...

Staphylococcus:
Stop being a nuisance on this subject matter.

You have been schooled and re-schooled on this forum but to no avail.

Read what you composing, They should submit a research work or lab test to you.

You just doing this cos it's a faceless forum. You can't even do on Twitter.

You want to explain 5G and it's relationship to a virus to people who still believe that a phone charger can cause electrocution?

Or explain to people that when their God of Men failed to provide miracles to heal the world from Corona virus they instead became scientists liking a pandemic to a new world order.

I figured out during this lockdown that one doesn't really need to win any argument online or anywhere, until such time when arguments begin to affect a bank account balance.

He had to back track after scientists showed him the curves on the models made for the infection.

Which president won't go sober when confronted with the possiblity of having more than a million deaths... especially in an election year...

Weedsmoker:


They should give them enough garlic to chew, garlic is very effective in fighting viruses and I think Corona can't be an exception.

As for me I stand gidigba,Dem no born coronavirus to even near me,with my face mask,2 hand sanitizers,5 tablets of vitamin c everyday,1 full ball of garlic everyday.

Thunder scatter coro.

You are eating garlic for a respiratory disease?

This paragragph is quite simple to read and understand.

Students were enrolled in the school feeding program before the schools were shut down.
The feeding programme was supposed to provide nutrition for the students and I think to also encourage them to attend schools.

Since the schools are now closed, the president is asking the appropriate ministry to look into how the feeding programme can be sustained during the closure so the students can continue to enjoy the "balanced nutrition". It sounds like a good idea to me if it can be implemented without compromising the health and safety of the students, teachers and others involved.

mattbass:
Man why are you by blabbing So, preventive measures are better than the Hydroxychloroquine and Azithromycin Can we for once try outdated drugs and see the effects rather than waiting for cure for God knows how long it will be out.... These drugs as of today both in France and USA has shown tremendous improvement to those down. Let's know that human lives are more important than anything here. If dogon yaro tree will work so be it joor.

I have found out that there is no prize for winning arguments, especially on a faceless forum.

If you don't see my line of reasoning, I acknowledge yours.

Firstnebo:
Are you attacking chloroquine as effective in managing Covid19 or are you attacking it as a legitimate drug in itself? Because the latter would be a different agenda altogether.

Chloroquine has been FDA approved since 1945 and still an accepted generic medicine against malaria and lupus all over the world.

It's frowned upon as a use in treating malaria because of many other effective malaria drugs which possess less known side effects.

But if you are here to say that Chloroquine is ineffective, then you are not being truthful.

I am not attacking the drug...I'm not in the position to do so, but if experts are saying its ability to treat the virus is anecdotal, I don't have any reason to doubt either. I am referring to statements made by Dr Fauci, the US director of allergy and infectious diseases and a top member of the presidential task force on covid 19.

My point is prevention is better than cure and proper diagnosis before administering of any drug especially drugs that are not clinically proven to work.

We should be emphasising preventive measures...social distancing, washing of hands, reducing the touching of eyes, mouth and nose etc. With these, we will be alive till scientists come up with clinically proven drugs safe for use.

Firstnebo:
If the most of the infected people have mild symptoms, and chloroquine has been proved effective at managing those with mild symptoms, would you say it's a waste of time to let people know about it?

Another question, if you get Covid19, would you try chloroquine?

Chloroquine has not been proven to be effective, at least not scientifically.

Also the key word is infected people, people are rushing to buy chloroquine without getting tested. People will still fall ill because of malaria and the flu. A fever and a cough is not a straight confirmation of the disease. This drug was banned in Nigeria a few years ago for a reason.

Getting infected to this virus is not a death sentence, the index case in Nigeria got cured.

About getting infected, I'm taking preventive measures seriously, even before most people took this outbreak seriously. I am also making sure that I am taking a balanced diet to sustain/improve my immune systems. Prevention is better than cure!

Firstnebo:
The answer is that because of skepticism raised around the drug, many people are not using it. Many hospitals are not prescribing it. Some politicians are against it.

It's only those that are forcing the hospitals to prescribe it for them based on their human right are benefiting from them.

Like this man below. All the tweet screenshots are verifiable, you can go to their handle and see

If this guy was in the hospital on a ventilator, he would probably not know or remember what drug was administered to him.

8 out of every 10 covid 19 patients will not need to even go to the hospital. Those with slight symptoms will be treated at home with whatever drug that has been proven to handle fever.

The race is to find a cure to save people that are most vulnerable, this cure according to scientists as at now is not chloroquine.

Can someone remind religious leaders and their followers that this virus is not about them?

When Trump moved the idea of this drug, US had less than 500 deaths from the virus, now it's above 2000 deaths, if they had the cure why are they still dying?

For those who don't know and are too lazy to read or learn, 80% of people confirmed to be infected with the virus will see none to mild symptoms. Most will not even notice they were infected.

Of the remaining 20% only a little percentage will require hospitalization. Those who are risk are the elderly, people with pre existing conditions and others with compromised immune systems.

Most drugs used to manage fever could be used to manage people with mild symptoms. Most of the drugs suggested in here are at best anecdotal, with no scientific proof that it works. The watch out however is that, infected people showing little or no symptoms can easily infect others that are significantly at risk.

Don't be a number in the statistics, stay away from crowded areas, most Nigerians do not know the state of their health, not to talk of if they have compromised immune systems.
