They love arguing, my parents can argue with me on a subject I studied using only dubious WhatsApp messages as evidence.

They are also very fearful, they never let me leave the house on my own until I was 16. For years I would stay in school as late as 7 every day because they were afraid of kidnappers while my friends walked home or took the bus home. I was also never allowed to go to my friend's houses even when they lived next door or have any sort of weekend outing. Because of this I never really developed socially and they wondered why I don't like talking with them or guests and going for parties.

Their helicopter style parenting really messed me up until I reached uni.

Lasgidi go red today, Biafra Land's economy keeps increasing indirectly.

It is the height of stupidity to think you are both immune and will benefit in some way.

A few days ago he said that a lockdown happening in Lagos was only a rumour.

On the 18th he said that panic buying was not necessary and that we can be assured that we will not starve.

See this is why a lot of people hate politicians, they can never have a story and stick with it,always changing mouth and moving like a headless chicken.

Anyways the smart people in Lagos ignored the governor and got what they needed 2 weeks ago.

No wonder everyone is evacuating their citizens from Nigeria, they don't want them to be lynched on the streets by panicked mobs.

How the virus take reach borno

Maybe it is searching for enemies of Nigeria.

SharpJoe:
Soper later said he was aware of research in Europe indicating that typhoid could have “asymptomatic carriers” — people walking around shedding germs who never appeared to get sick. He suspected Mallon might be one of them. All in all, Soper claimed she had caused two dozen illnesses and one death.

In March 1907, Soper found the Park Avenue house where Mallon was then employed and demanded that she give him samples of her feces, urine and blood. She threw him out of the house. Next, he went to health department officials with his theory. Eventually, she was dragged kicking and cursing from the home by police and forced to give specimens at a hospital.

She was full of the typhoid bacteria.

Does that remind you of something? Covid-19.

Never stop someone from thinking.

Typhoid is caused by bacteria, Covid-19 is caused by a virus. Typhoid does not affect the lungs and two organisms are structurally nothing alike. Polio and HIV can also be spread by asymptomatic carriers as well but it does not mean they are related.

SharpJoe:
Given that COVID-19 may include stomach and bowel symptoms, gastroenterologists may consider the coronavirus illness when evaluating patients with GI complaints along with upper respiratory symptoms, researchers said

https://www.medpagetoday.com/gastroenterology/generalgastroenterology/85471

With the particular treatment on trials, Chloroquine (malaria treatment) and Azithromycin (Typhoid treatment) is being used.

I have every right to think and suspect. That is what researching is all about. Not caging the mind.

There's a difference between reasonable suspicion and wild assumptions. I can't make a claim about something based on misrepresentation and hearsay.

The organisms responsible for malaria/typhoid and coronavirus are so wildly different that engineering one from the other requires something I can only describe as magical.

These drugs are still in testing stages and chloroquine is the only anti malaria medication that is having any effect in testing.

The only other related organism to Covid-19 is the virus responsible for the SARS epidemic of 2003.

Diiet:
Church goers are not foolish, inasmuch you don't sacrifice your brain, those who think God doesn't exist are the real foolish ones.

Of course people who don't believe in talking snakes, talking donkeys, talking plants, magic rocks, people coming back to life, virgin teenage birth and healing blindness with spit from a book imposed on us by Europeans are the real fools here.

desiredhome:
Are you blind? or you just want to spew trash as usual?

The video literally cuts 3:40 into his speech. Maybe common sense trash to you Buhari fanatics?

SharpJoe:
I hope you read believe. I feel is an engineering that used the way Malaria and typhoid work to make the virus. I believe it is an engineered virus. I did not say it is. It is my belief. Okay?

Malaria is a liver and blood disease, typhoid affects the intestines and blood.
Covid-19 affects the lungs and may affect the heart as well.

There is nothing linking malaria/typhoid with Covid-19 apart from the claim that chloroquine helps in the treatment of Covid-19 symptoms.

Your belief is wrong and misleading, it leads to rumors being spread and mistrust between medical professionals and the public. When that happens people avoid treatment and may die or cause the disease to spread further.

Think before you post something because people might stake their lives on it.

SharpJoe:
I do not know of the others but I believe Covid-19 is a bioengineered and weaponized malaria and typhoid virus.

Malaria and typhoid are caused by bacteria and protozoans not viruses. The claim that it is a biological weapon had no ground because the so called evidence has be pulled from the rectums of attention seekers on social media.

brightisodje:
enough of all this ur lifeless talk please the masses are hungry send money to us all... useless government

With everything being shut down the money might as well be worthless. We need food stores because I fear many people, especially children are going to starve because they were not well prepared.

jham01:
Some are alleging that the speech is pre-recorded and some idiots are backing their comments. How can a pre-recorded video revealed the figure of precise casualties and updated information?
Better keep mute than expose ur ignorance.
By default some ppl were neva asking for national address bt reasons to criticise. At least Nigeria is by far better in action than those nations u see as ur Gods!

It could have been recorded earlier today and just played at 7 because Buhari is not very articulate. How do you explain the random cuts?

Wiseoldman:
The insults are not intelligent bros. Some people that can't define the basic component of a neural network are saying the video is a deepfake.

Wahala dey black man country. Instead of us to join hand to build our country, we wont to destroy it and run away to obodo oyinbo. Just to you can be sending 100USD to your village people.

The people saying this is fake are simply idiots, it might be heavily edited and prerecorded but not a fake.


Concerning your second point most of the people who leave do so because Nigerians are content with mediocrity. When you leave the country and see things working you will never want to come back. Truth is a lot of Nigerians are poorly educated and see the horrible state we find ourselves as normal, to the point when trying to fix it gets you labelled as an 'oversabi'.

Victorious1000:
Never ever seen a country were the supposed citizens hurl abuse at the leader with reckless abandon!

It'd a shame I share the same enclave with this people

In every country people insult the leaders when things are going badly, and things just happen to be going badly for Nigeria right now.

Buhari's case is not special stop being overly sensitive.

Summary of the address.

kikero:
And what if you don't live in Lagos?

This scenario is about Lagos don't twist it. The foreigners did not do the right thing. People in other states are meant to call the relevant authorities and self isolate until arrangements can be made for them.

kikero:
So if you, God forbid, had covid 19, and you went to a hospital for help and the staff ran away from you....shey you would clap for them?

Why would I be stupid and run to any hospital knowing that they lack the facilities to treat me and I might put other vulnerable people at risk?

I will make use of the hotline built specifically for this purpose, if they don't answer I will present myself to the infectious disease hospital in Yaba, which the staff there already told them to do if the story is correct.

Not all hospitals are made equal and if a patient can't be taken care of they get referred to a place that can. I have worked in hospitals before so I know how these things go.

Olodo24:
Are they not health workers? They're supposed to be brave. If every other health workers act like them, we are finished.

Doctors and nurses are people and not magicians, this isn't some movie where they can clap hands and heal patients without themselves getting sick or making others sick as well.

RiyaGoddess:
That hospital should be called out and closed up with immediate effect. My mom was right when she told me last night that she fears doctors and nurses fleeing when the numbers increases in Nigeria because Nigerians lack good working attitude.
Imagine ‘This is Coronavirus! Coronavirus is not my portion!’ Whose portion is it Mtchewwwwww




Modified- Professional Illiterates everywhere.

No sir your post made no sense at all, if they lack the tools and equipment to treat the patient why would they expose themselves and other patients to the disease? Doctors around the world are dying right now because they were not adequately protected and worked themselves to death while sick.

Worse of all is your statement for a government hospital to close down, just how does that help anyone?

Nigerians love being stubborn. Hope if they fall sick they won't be disturbing us up and down asking for healing prayers when they could have used simple common sense.

Honestly people who act this way don't deserve help when the disease comes knocking.

ovieigho:
With your write up , I now believe people actually called God bluff in the days of Noah
If event repeats itself in thousands years to come , some people won’t still believe you wrote all these because it’s not and will not be recorded (they will call it myths)
But truly we are in the perilous times when man will be lovers of themselves

Kai! U no even fit risk am fear God small

The Noah's flood myth isn't a true story, it isn't even an original story. It copied the Epic of Gilgamesh.

Please tell me why the European imported religion is the true religion and all the other flood myths around the world are made up stories?

Dicktion:
Whether you like it or not Buhari and his dungs are the Corona of this nation
Argue with your food stuffs

My fish isn't responding

The response to the outbreak in this country has been very poor, we have been mostly reactive and not proactive. The truth is that we should be shifting attention to mass testing and treating people presenting symptoms before their condition worsens.

We could have stopped this at the border but didn't, we were already congratulating ourselves in helping one Italian. Our laxity in monitoring incoming travellers is starting to bite us in the ass.

I'm seeing more red flags in this post than a Chinese military parade.

My guy I'm sure she either isn't interested or she is the cheating type and letting you know beforehand. Or maybe she's a domineering control freak who thinks you can't be put on a leash because you package yourself better than other guys.

Either way run.......... and buy her hand sanitiser.

By the way is her name Natacha?

Just look at this elongated gutter rat.

He should be tried and if found guilty, quickly be disposed of.

Wow this Coronavirus seems to be targeting specific individuals.

todugo:
BUT MY QUESTION IS WHY ARE THE RICH WHO ARE POSITIVE NOT DYING BUT ITS THE COMMON MAN THAT ARE DYING OF THE VIRUS?

They aren't testing the common man

Slawormir:
Damnnnnn niggarrr

Isoright
Am a real niggarrr and a street niggarrr

Am not a pretender and i can never pretend
Those people up there are better than we the common masses on the street

We will do worse if we get the chance!

The reason a lot of Shit is going on in this country is the fact that we don't actually hate corruption the way we pretend to
We are only angry because we are not the one carrying out the corruption!

Bunch of fuckkking hypocrites

Does that make any of this right?

And some silly fellows still held prayers in that same state.

Scout60:
I have always hold myself from insulting Buhari because he is old enough to be my grand father but if that man is insensitive to the plies of the people; he should have resigned long time ago.

At his age, he should have retired and given way for a younger person. Most decisions he takes are what his staff feeds him. He is just there why the country is run by another

That's the thing, we as Africans have the wrong priorities. When looking for a leader the last thing we should consider is their age, sure it is a wonderful thing to have lived so long but if they are not capable of working they shouldn't be in the most important office in arguably all of West Africa.

I would rather have a 40 year old president who gets things done and takes responsibility than a 70 year old who sits around blaming the masses while using their same tax money for foreign medical trips.
