A soldier is a soldier. No emotion is expected. Stop stressing yourself. Wish him a great birthday and move on.

Vicas2000:
'Eni Ija o ba...tin pe ara e lokunrin'. It's a yoruba adage with the English transliteration that means 'live to die another day'.

This is what Gen Diya did by begging Abacha. If you like....mock him.... he is alive today and useful to his family.

Of what use is dying for no reason? All the people that died for Nigeria....what did they get in the end?


Most of you moving will cry like a baby if an armed robber points a gun at you If you are faced with death...you will beg for your life.

If you knew how ruthless Abacha was...you will not even blame this man for pleading.

It's best to die by the gun that face the torture that Abacha's henchmen will do to you back then.

The begging was useless. You think the begging save him? God saved the man.

Onlinealaba:
There is no cowardice in begging for one's life, he begged and he his alive while the 'beggee' is long dead..such is life

God saved him via Abacha's death save him. His cry was nothing in the face of Abacha.

A cat with 9 lives.

If you've never been framed up before, you won't understand.

It is better to cry and save your head than from strong man and die.

Where is the so called abacha today? He died 22 years ago

Happy birthday joor!

You said it all

You don't really understand what the major role of a government is, hence I don't blame you. It is the duty of the government to ensure a system that works where those so called Nigerians cannot steal as you said

2mch:
It’s not the government that stole the ones Nigerians got but fellow Nigerians themselves. Shame. Later they will come with their smelling mouth to say government is killing them.

A research or investigation needs to be done on Nigerian Covid19 vs. Spanish & Italian Covid19. Something is not adding up.

Biological war you mean?

THEY ARE THE ONES DOING IT but they will be exposed soon

Tell all the shit to your dad.

adecz:
You know I reason with my anus because your head is stuck in my fvkcing anus.
Fvkcing gay!!

Beefing doctors? lol is this all your useless brain told you? You problem requires covid19 as cure.

NigeriaB:
So this fight is universal?
Nurses keep beefing doctors..

Can't understand why nurses hare doctors so much...

Why would you kill a doctor , why would you kill her? You have taken not just her life but also dat of many others she would have given hope in a time as this..

You are worse than the covid-19 itself.

Most Nigerian Doctors suffer from superiority complex yet they are nothing close to superior.

Karleb:
RIP!
But a female doctor dating a male nurse?

Doesn't happen often in Nigeria.

Your stupidity lies with you. The last rhetorical question you asked is an evidence. You reason with your anus.

adecz:
Mumu nurse.

Is COVID-19 AIDS?

She caught it through her
professional, humanitarian work
of working with patients..


Why doctor go dey befriend
nurse sef?


Nonsense!!

Please reference 9ja own

2kaythuks:
Oh shit like this also happen in Italy

Lol you have personal issues. Sort it out first.

Ok I know your personality. Thanks

I am realist. I see no reason why Nigerian should support party when hunger has no party. Kiss ma ass.

Guilty conscience.

Immediately I saw wailers, I knew you must be bais hence I stop reading. You are just a party man. Trash!!!!

PassingShot:
I have read a lot of wailing and criticism about the FG’s handling of the coronavirus pandemic since it arrived in Nigeria on Feb 25th. The most recent was reactions to a thread comparing Nigeria’s handling of the crisis to that of UK. Expectedly but sadly, a lot of ignorant commenters were dancing albeit nakedly based on the newspaper’s report which didn’t even say that the UK is handling the pandemic better than Nigeria.

If any unbiased person wants to make any comparison about govts handling of the pandemic, their objective analysis will include parameters such as each govt’s efforts before COVID arrived at their shores (very important), each govt’s immediate response as soon as COVID arrived in their country, number of infected persons (confirmed) and lastly and most importantly, the number of deaths recorded as a result of the pandemic. But since many Nigerians have allowed their common sense to be affected by prejudice and hatred, they have abandoned these relevant parameters in making evaluating the govt’s response to the crisis. Now let’s quickly look at the following facts:

1. Measures taken by the Nigerian Govt before a COVID case was discovered in Nigeria: Long before the pandemic found its way into Nigeria, the FG embarked on monitoring body temperature of people flying into the country to be able to discover who may have showed any signs of the disease. By this time and despite that the disease was at their shores, USA, UK, Iran and many other “saner clime” countries were not even taking this measure. Dr. joe Abah did a thread on it and the World Health Organization commended Nigeria for this measure and going as far as using Nigeria as an example of how countries should respond to the pandemic. Read https://twitter.com/drjoeabah/status/1233989553008119809?lang=en for Dr. Joe’s Twitter thread and https://guardian.ng/news/coronavirus-who-commends-fgs-effort-on-response/ for WHO’s commendation.

2. Number of cases recorded in Nigeria versus that of UK or any other “saner country”: As at the time of writing this article (01/04/2010 @12 noon Naija time), the UK has 25,150 confirmed cases and 1,789 deaths; the USA has 188,639 cases and 4,059 deaths; Iran has 47,593 cases and 3,036 deaths, Italy has 105,792 cases and 12,428 deaths while many other “saner countries” have similar gloomy numbers to show for their efforts. Nigeria on the other hand has recorded 139 cases and 2 deaths. I expect some readers to jump on the fact that Nigeria is not testing as much as the mentioned countries, but the fact remains that while that may be responsible for the low number of confirmed cases, it couldn’t have been responsible for low number of deaths. Not carrying out enough testing would not have prevented people from being struck down by the disease or people dying as a result of it.

3. Another indication that Nigeria’s govt is doing her best in containing the spread of the virus can be seen when one compares the time the country’s first case was discovered to when those of the “saner countries” were discovered and juxtapose with the number of confirmed cases and deaths. Italy had her first case around January 31st, 2020 (two months ago), Spain had its first on Feb. 1st and Italy had it on Feb 21st which was only four days earlier than when Nigeria had hers on Feb 25th. Compare the number of deaths/confirmed cases of these countries and see if you have not been unreasonable in your criticism of the government.

The problem with wailers and destructive critics is that they always shift the goalposts. As such, you can never have any reasonable conversation with them. When the first case was reported in Nigeria, lead by their frustrated Wailer-in-Chief, they said it was a scam to be used to loot money. And when few more cases were confirmed some days after, they turned back to say the govt should have closed the bother long ago! Such is their pathetic life!

Ask them which country Nigeria should have emulated in containing the disease, those of them who still have a bit of sense will stutter because they would not dare say USA, UK, Italy or Germany but the chronic wailers who have obviously lost it all will still compare how Nigeria is managing the spread of the disease to the same UK which has lost almost two thousands of her people to the disease.

Does Nigeria have the facilities or the means to combat the COVID19 pandemic? The answer is a resounding NO. Does the country have a robust health system compared to those “saner countries”? Again, the answer is an emphatic No? Do we have enough money to deploy to tackle any outbreak in the size of that witnessed in UK, Italy, USA or Germany? The answer is an obvious NO. But the fact is that the state of our health system or the size of our purse wasn’t brought about by the current government but a result of many years of failure. So, why wailing uncontrollably instead of supporting the govt’s efforts at preventing the spread of the disease?

Had it been Buhari who reacted the way Trump and Boris Johnson first reacted to the COVID19 outbreak – by dismissing it and making all sorts of joke of it, or just like Seyi Makinde (your “presidential material”) who called it an APC disease, perhaps you would have possibly reacted in such a bad manner. There should be a limit to wailing!

Have a nice day.

Please who is living in the present glory? Clowns

rottennaija:
And you believe what comes from Trumps mouth? Fact is that USA at some point were offering Iran help (which they rejected). Now, can they beat their chest to offer such help again?

Truth is USA is living in their past glory, same with Europe.

Tinubu donates 200 million to Lagos is the biggest lie.

chatinent:
They are all liars, in fact. Top lies:
.
1. Buhari is negative.
2. Tinubu donates N200m to Lagos.

3. In the President's speech, 'fellow Nigerians' is also a lie.

Stop all this bullshit intelligence. If this was a game by the Chinese on US, then China should get ready for the worse. US is no joke.

ipobarethieves:
China wan wipe the world ooo

You just a clown. Which Iran? US is in the process of making advances. The have created kits for quick testing. Data from China and Iran can't be trusted because they lie so much. US can handle their problem, worry about Nigeria.

rottennaija:
From all indicators, USA is not as mighty as it claimed and it seems they need Iran's help more than Iran needs theirs.

Ontime Border close would have prevented all this. [quote author=poh10 post=87987582]https://twitter.com/NCDCgov/status/1245312493599297536?s=19

Adequate diet.

9jaRealist:
A diet (not just food) is always important...

Same happened to me. I kept wondering how the guy knew my real names.

OnyeObodo:
Hello Nigerians,

I want to use this opportunity to warn you about the new ongoing corona BVN and ATM scam. Please be aware that even though BVN and ATM scam are not entirely new, what I find disturbing about this format is that thy are using the Corona pandemic to scare people. Another disturbing thing is that they called my wife by her name. They are also leveraging on the stay at home order to scare people the more. This implies this is a high level powered scam.

This fraudster and scammer 08106579538 called my wife and this conversation ensued;

Scammmer: Hello, am I talking to Mrs Nkechi Fashola

Wife: Yes

Scammer: Am calling you on the directive of First Bank. The federal government is about to implement a nationwide lock-down and am calling to setup online banking for you.

Wifey: I am not interested. I already have online banking

Scammer: If you don't upgrade too, you will not benefit from the corona virus loans being disbursed very soon (This is where I cut in)

Me: Young man, you are speaking with inspector Kolade of FSARS apapa LION zone

Scammer: (Drops call)

Why I decided to share this even though its an old format is because of two things;

(1) He called my wife by her correct names (Suggesting insider job)

(2) They now leverage on the corona virus pandemic sit at home order! Due to the hunger in the land and the uncertainty of Nigerian government in helping people through this trying times, people may become desperate and give in their personal information. Awareness needs to be crated before people will jump from frying pan to fire.

Believe me when I tell you that the person that called was so professional, precise and apt. This particular scammer knows his onions. They have taken it to a whole new level.

It started as an epidemic then became a pandemic.

Kendumazy:
Coronavirus isn't an epidemic. It's a pandemic. Take note.

I read all of it and I want to you to tell your pastor that point 10 is wrong. Virus is a biological weapon and not a chemical weapon. Thanks.

SperoQuest:
Do you take your time to read all of it.

Now i see why a pastor said we should not accept the gift from the Chinese Billionaire.

Hmmm GOD help us

Please read the number 10 point, then correct your pastor that virus is a biological weapon not chemical weapon. Virus can only be a biological weapon. Thanks

SperoQuest:
Nigerians open your eyes and embrace the truth.

This is a confirmation of my previous thread below.
https://www.nairaland.com/5760985/coronavirus-apostle-johnson-suleman-exposes

Read the number 11 truth in the link to the thread above and see that what apostle Johnson Suleiman said was the hidden truth.

Our Nigerian government should not accept any testing kit from China.

Why is it that the cases in Nigeria started to rise after the test kits from the Chinese Billionaire arrived?

Nigeria should focus on our local herbs for cure and our Nigerian scientist should make more research on our local herbs.

We have the cure but we are neglecting the wonders of our local herbs.

Why are they threatening the French doctor that made the discovery of chloro Quine?

Why are they attacking trump for suggesting chloro Quine?

NIGERIANS open your eyes!!!!!

I am more concerned she isn't getting food which is very important. Now she is even needs an adequate diet not just food.

9jaRealist:
Of course not...
Everyone needs food, wherever you are.

We all need food whether or not we are sick...
But if she is completely asymptomatic her immune system is not substantively any more compromised than anyone else’s.

Perhaps your post was not the best to comment on...
But my comment was more concerned with the entirety of the Dad’s complaint.
>

What you said is just funny but let me verify something. Are you saying foods are not meant to be giving in Isolation centres? Are saying it is right not to fed her because she is asymptomatic? Please note: Food is needed both in the ICUs and Isolation centres for both symptomatic and asymptomatic persons.

9jaRealist:
Isolation Centers are not ICUs...
She might be asymptomatic, but still isolated so that she doesn’t affect her family and others.

In fact, in many places, motels and dorms are used as isolation centers...
I understand a parents’ reflexive distress, but we really need more information to make any informed comment.

Great content

*I love this write-up*

Every king was once a crying baby and every building was once a picture. The person you admire so much was once a nobody. The most anointed man you see was once a church member. The person you attended his or her wedding was once a chief bachelor or spinster. So why worry in life?

It's not about where you are today but where you will reach tomorrow. Alphabet "O'' which stands for Opportunity, is absent in ''yesterday'' but once in ''tOday'' And thrice in ''tOmOrrOw'' So Stay Positive Always and have hope. Your tomorrow will surely be better than today. Believe in yourself and never give up. ......The future is bright!
