Though there's no report of the man's death being linked to the disease, I believe that one of the reasons covid-19 keeps spreading is those people who hold on to the belief that the disease is nonexistent in the country, claiming that the deaths result from malaria.
Because most people in this country don't have a mind of their own, they quickly subscribe to that belief, and subsequently defy the order to practise safe social activities.
they have only succeeded in using Kano as a scape goat to teat run their deadly virus they habe been talking about..this shows how insensitive our government are towards her citizens,bullshit
it is a shame that a Professor would utter such words without thorough investigation about the cause of deaths trailing Kano people..mind you if it where an attempt to depopulate Muslims, the target would rather be on the young,not the old as it is presently now in Kano
ignis: The robot president has been handed a 3 paged written speech that he knows nothing about. He is currently going through the written speech to get familiar with it and read it out to Nigerians by 7pm.
In the entire world, Nigeria is among the 1st 3 countries that has done the LEAST tests for the virus so far. ( Less than 15k tests so far) Ghana has done around 100k tests already...
Here in Senegal, a lab has been manufacturing ventilators that cost less than $60 using 3d technology. Mind you, an average ventilator cost around $15k.
Many labs here too are involved with production of very cheap and efficient test kits for the virus.
Nigeria is still waiting for Oyinbo donations.
Sad buhari
the Army claimed they manufactured the ventilator,my question is who's the guy on suit explaining the process and usage of the ventilator? why isn't an Army officer doing that? who be Mumu?

Mr John Coumantaros, Chairman of the Flour Mills of Nigeria Group (FMN Group) has donated a $1.5 million worth of ventilators and other essential personal protective equipment and testing kits to the Federal Government. Coumantaros, an industrialist and known philanthropist said that the first batch of the supplies, sourced through FMN’s global supply chain, focused on the most essential needs of the government at the moment, had arrived.
A statement issued on Wednesday in Abuja by the Group’s Chief Operating Officer, Boye Olusanya, said that the supplies which will continue to arrive until March 31, will beef up Nigeria’s fight against COVID-19.
Olusanya said that the supplies were an additional contribution by FMN through its Chairman, Coumantaros. The Group had also redeemed an initial One Billion Naira pledge to the Federal Government of Nigeria. He noted that despite procurement restrictions on supplies by several countries to ensure their frontline responders had sufficient supplies, FMN through its global supply chain network ensured that it sourced and procured the critical supplies for Nigeria.
He added that some of the items on the first batch include ventilators, protective equipment and testing kits, assuring that all the supply would have arrived and handed over by April end. “FMN initiated a global supply chain plan to help provide the Nigerian Government with tangible, and tactical support during the global economic lockdown.
“This initiative led by the philanthropic Industrialist John Coumantaros, Chairman of the FMN Group, involved the leadership of the NCDC, Ministry of Finance, vendors from 5 Nations, multiple logistics partners, and a team drawn from the FMN group’s operational leadership.
“The team scaled through varying national restrictions on medical supply procurement, limited stock, transport restrictions, but stayed resolute in the race to help Nigeria manage and flatten the curve. “The medical supplies will facilitate 100 per day field-testing capacity and 35,000 laboratory-based testing capacity.
The supplies included: 331,000 pieces of PPE (N95 Masks, Coveralls, Protective gloves, Protective eyewear) enough to provide regular use for 10,000 Nigerian health care professionals over two months. “There are also 75 Ventilators. These supplies will be delivered to the National Centre for Disease Control (NCDC) to ramp up the capacity in Nigeria,” he said,
He said that the medical supplies procured from Dubai, United States, Canada, Greece and China have started arriving Nigeria from April 18, through to April 27.
Racoon: FCTA should kindly ensured that the man who was involved in disposing his PPE suite unhygienically by the road side is not only quarantined but prosecuted there after for endangering public safety in a period when the world is being plagued by a global pandemic of this nature.
jlinkd78: Hope we are gradually coming to d end of this epic rofo rofo fight. No matter what happens in d coming days I must say d Nigerian govt allowed Chad take credit for d looming decimation of Boko Haram due to their interest in using d war prosecution as an avenue for personal financial enrichment. Derby of Chad boast that over 90% of d battle has been won remaining a paltry 10% might be true after all. Shame on u coward Shekau. U must face d consequences of ur ungodly actions
Chad ended 10% of the war in one day,yet Buratai is doing coordinated recconaissance.. meanwhile don't forget that Boko Haram is just a fashion of the sect,we still have ISIS-Africa chapter and Ansaru etc ..we must be careful
matrix199: When one would have expected the Boko Haram insurgents to take to their heels far off Borno state, they are even more defiant and even launched an attack to make a statement that they're not perturb by Buratai's presence.
Boko Haram don see Nigerian soldiers finished!
What the heck!!! Why the movie,it is obvious that Its all arranged and scripted..f!ck you Buratai ..and all of you who keep joking with the lives of nigerians
