Politics / COVID 19: Nigeria Not Testing Enough - NMA Warns by chozzy: 1:55pm On Apr 01, 2020 |
People with COVID-19 symptoms not being tested – NMA president The Nigerian Medical Association President, Dr Francis Faduyile, in an interview with one of our correspondents, said Nigerians was not testing enough number of people. He said many people who required COVID-19 test had not been able to gain access to it because there was no synergy between the Federal Government and states. Faduyile said some patients, who required the test because they had shown COVID-19 symptoms, had approached him to assist them to get a place where they could be tested. He said, “We have not been able to have a harmonious working relationship between the Federal Government and states in our effort to fight COVID-19. This is very unfortunate.” Delay testing portends danger, NMA warns “The inability of our people to get tested at the right time portends danger for our society and efforts to curb the spread of coronavirus. Once we cannot test and ascertain those who have the virus, those who are not confirmed but who have the virus will cause rapid community transmission of the disease.” “We are not privy to what the ministry has and we don’t know how the kits are distributed to test centres across the country. I don’t think it is good for the system.” The NMA president said the configuration of the Presidential Task Force on COVID-19 was not in order because it was bereft of medical personnel capable of leading the fight against the virus. He added, “It is important that stakeholders should form the core of the technical team working on COVID-19. This is a medical issue; it is an issue that requires medical personnel to be at the forefront of the fight so that they can galvanise ideas. “It is unfortunate that the Ministry of Health and the Federal Government have not been able to get those people, rather, they put politicians in the Presidential Task Force.” Man laments delay in wife’s treatment Also, a middle-aged man, in a video that went viral on Tuesday, expressed frustration over the delay his wife experienced in getting treatment for COVID-19. The man, whose wife was said to have been taken to an isolation centre in Lagos State, told an unidentified broadcast journalist nearby, “My name is Olamiju. What the hell are they doing here? She hasn’t seen a doctor since morning. She hasn’t seen a nurse. She hasn’t been fed. And you’re telling me that I should not take her out. “Let her go and die in her house. Simple. I don’t care anymore. For the fact that Nigeria has coronavirus does not mean you should just be left around and then nobody treats you; nothing happens. I am going to call everybody I know in Nigeria now.” Several Nigerians were outraged over the delay, even as a relative of the aggrieved man, @adukegold_, took to Twitter to seek intervention. @adukegold_ said, “This is my uncle at the isolation centre @NCDCgov @segalink @jidesanwoolu please help us respond to his case.” A popular social media activist, Segun Awosanya, otherwise known as Segalink, later responded, saying, “Hi Distinguished, do note that your uncle’s wife is being attended to. I just finished speaking with him to confirm this. “He will also give feedback of his experience as things develop. This happened in Yaba for those saying it was in Benue. Let us always get our facts right. “The @NCDCgov is doing its best to monitor the reports and it will lessen the burden if we allow objectivity to reign supreme. Things are no doubt imperfect but a lot is being learnt as we proceed.” But the Lagos State Commissioner for Health, Prof Akin Abayomi, at a press conference on Tuesday, said the mode of operation at the isolation centre was different from that of a hospital ward. He said it often took a few days for patients to adjust to life at the centre. The commissioner stated. He stated, “It takes a few days for the patients to get accustomed to isolation centres and that is why it is called isolation. “For about one or two days, patients will always complain on social media that nobody is doing this, ‘I haven’t seen anybody.’ That is not correct. They are just not accustomed to seeing people for few minutes a few times a day. It is totally different from a normal ward. “After about two days, the patients become accustomed to that and then they settle down. They start interacting with other patients in the ward, they make friends and if you have listened to the testimonies that have been released, they thank the government. “They make a lot of good comments, they are happy that they are well and they have finally understood what isolation means.” No enough testing kits in Edo, says health Commissioner The Edo State Commissioner for Health, Mr. Patrick Okundia, lamented lack of sufficient testing kits for suspected coronavirus cases. Okundia, who stated this in an interview with The PUNCH, said the state had only one molecular machine in the Irrua Specialist Teaching Hospital which was inadequate for the state. According to him, the state does not have the other rapid test kits He said, “There are two types of testing facilities. The main testing machine is molecular PCR machine and we have only one in Edo State which is in Irrua Specialist Teaching Hospital. “We don’t have the other Rapid Test Kit, but the information is that we can hardly use that to confirm any case of coronavirus, so we don’t recommend that at all. So far in Edo State, w have about 32 cases that have been tested and out of that we have two confirmed cases.” He stated further that “the testing kits we have are at Irrua Specialist Teaching Hospital, I cannot tell you the quantity now. Definitely they need more testing kits because they take more cases from outside the state.” https://punchng.com/fg-plans-1500-tests-daily-oyo-edo-decry-kit-shortage/ .

BreconHills: OBJ inherited oil price at $22 per barrel. The price fluctuated below $30 throughout his first term. The upward trend actually kicked in in his second term. Still OBJ and GEJ developed Abuja to what it is today. If you ever visited Abuja in 1998, you would understand the difference. The numerous massive expressways, new cities and estates you see in Abuja today are the handiwork of OBJ and GEJ in particular. Kudos to their FCT ministers El-Rufa and Bala Muhammed who incidentally are now governors of Kaduna and Bauchi respectively Besides paying off our debts to secure debt forgiveness, OBJ implemented a 100% increase in minimum wage from #3,500 - #7,500. GEJ did a 150% increase from #7,500 to #18,000. Yar'Adua's 3yrs unfortunately was a period of the global meltdown (you remember?) All PDP leaders also wasted so much money subsidising petroleum products. So, the different past governments had their different challenges. Oil fluctuated around $80 - $104 only from 2012 to mid 2014. It was never so throughout PDP's 16yrs. OBJ sold crude oil for less than $30 throughout his first term. . |

BreconHills: OBJ did not really place Railway construction as his priority although towards the end of his tenure in 2007 he tried to award contract for the Lagos - Kano line which the Yar'Adua govt cancelled. OBJ's priority was on electricity generation. During his tenure about nine power generation plants in Omotosho, Odukpani, Papalanto, Geregu, Alaoji, Egbema, Olorunsogo, Sapele etc were being constructed simultaneously The GEJ govt dismantled the gigantic Lagos - Kano line into four phases while working out a funding arrangement with China. The agreement was for the Nigerian govt to pay 15% for each phase upfront while China provides the balance as loans. It started with the Abuja - Kaduna, then followed by Lagos - Ibadan and so on until the entire Lagos - Kano is completed before 2030. . |

Some companies require a two weeks or one month prior notice or else you may be forced to forfeit your one month salary.

See, the deal with China was brokered 100% by previous PDP govts (precisely OBJ & GEJ) Buhari did not know anything about how all these projects were negotiated. The entire Lagos - Kano stretch was divided into phase as follows: Abuja - Kaduna ( completed ) Lagos - Ibadan ( almost completed ) Kaduna - Kano ( next-in-line ) Ibadan - Abuja ( future project ) . 28 Likes 2 Shares |

slimfit1: You're just ignorant of how the rail projects work. It's not about PDP or APC. Remember, these projects are not funded by Buhari's FG. The Chinese govt finances them directly from Beijing so, what will make them delay? China is not known to abandon projects. The Ajaokuta - Itakpe - Warri line was over 75% completed when GEJ left office. Chinese CCEC were still working when Buhari/Amaechi took over in 2015. The Abuja - Kaduna line was nearly 100% completed when GEJ left office. The only remaining thing Amaechi did was the completion of the Idu terminal which the Catholic Church filed a law suit against FG for forcefully taking over their land. GEJ started the Kaduna - Abuja line in 2011 and by December 2015 it was fully completed. The Chinese govt did not delay that project. The project did not last 10yrs, you lied. GEJ also started the Ajaokuta - Itakpe - Warri line in 2013. It's been completed since 2018. China does not unnecessarily delay projects. . 88 Likes 11 Shares |
