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.

In as much as you love the president, whenever he didn't do so well, please be confident and courageous enough to say it.

Now to counter your claims.

1. How many of those imported cases did you hear was isolated at the airport(point of entry), due to the effective temperature check? Do you know why there was none? Our Lagos airport officials treat some people as VIP.

2. Anyone arriving from high risk countries are suppose to self isolate. Did the chief of staff did that? So it suggest a failed follow up system.

3. If airport was closed since on March 1st, we wouldn't have had 95% of our imported cases and economic activities would still have been normal in Nigeria.

They were charging me 48k monthly for less than 2hrs/day light for just a duplex. I called their head office in Benin and gave them all the details and stopped paying.

Nigerians are usually very cooperative against crime to humanity, these bandit can't thrive in the south. This leave a lot questions on the local and village heads in the north. Rip to those that lost thier lives.

This is not African. Same a feminism. We are not equal.

gabazin080:
I have a big shop in front of my house and I will like to know if if 150k is enough to start a gas refill business. I will also like to know the requirements and how to go about it plus how profitable the business is.

also thinking of selling gas cylinder and burners. help a bro please

It will be enough. Please gas business is very delicate. You MUST go and learn from a retailer for at least 2 weeks. During these period You will know what and what you need and how to get your products cheaper.

oluwaseyi000:
When Boko Haram kidnap 200 girls under your former boss what do you do how many countries do you visit

I guess you did nothing just like the present hypocritical APC rolled out massive protest when Jonathan increase fuel price but did nothing when Buhari did worse

Just unfortunate most Nigerian elite 'support' to the masses always have a political undertone

How do you want God blessings? Moderate or in abundance?

APC keep churning out half baked policies.

blackpanda:
Lol, can u be any more selfish so how will they construct roads, rail, bridges etc if everybody is collecting 20k

How many roads have they built since over 50 years they have been sharing the money? Is everyone is getting 20k we can join dangote cement factory for free and produce cement for us to interlock a better road. Don't this government is doing Shit.

And we have just 774 local government. Why not give each local government 1 billion? Then the local government will give each ward 25 million. So that i will go and collect my 20k from our ward chairman. This country is not serious.

All of you posting rubbish can't you just snap and post here? Rubbish

The people spreading HIV are the ones that don't know their status. Atleast Half of those already infected don't know their status. It takes an average of 2 years to get the sign that something is wrong with you. It might take up to 5 years to understand your body mechanism has changed. So they will be busy spreading it during those period. That's why it's adviced we know our status.

Lastly, ebola is airborne unlike HIV, hence the physical isolation.

MobilityExpress:
Ok, if your statement is true that HIV infectees are being regularly trained on how to prevent the disease from spreading, then how come the disease is still spreading at an alarming rate? So you see, all that training is achieving little or no results. So this method of prevention is impractical. Disclosure is the only feasible solution. You're trying to prevent stigma of one person at the risk of exposing millions of other people to the same disease that person is being stigmatized for. Which is more important: the welfare of one person or the welfare of millions of people? If your logic is right, then why isolate people with Ebola, after all there's still a chance the infected person might survive, even if the chance is slim. Why not keep it a secret? That method will only ensure everyone gets infected.

elinaxy:
I'm also diagnosed with hepatitis B, found out it's not curable. I wonder if that is true

Your body can naturally fight it and win. Unlike HIV

For those asking you for confirmatory it's good. But I believe you must have confirmed before posting it here. Are your parents still alive? One of them might be carrier. Other method of transmission is rare. If you did blood transfusion at a younger age, it could be that the blood is infected as an infected blood will show negative if it's less than 4 months during screening. But don't spend your energy in finding how you were infected.


Since you are asked to start ARVs immediately, it only means your CD4 is low so you have to take your medication seriously for the next two years. Ask them about positive living they will explain better. Peace

Techbrity:
As a HIV-, have you tried the CD4 count test on yourself? What was the result?

Medically explain what CD4 does. If you know it you won't ask this question. Beside CD4, other factors matters alot too. As CD4 can from from 2000 to 5 in one week. Peace to you.

MobilityExpress:
I strongly disagree with you on this. Not revealing their status is why the world has gotten to where it is today where there are millions of people living with AIDS and thousands are getting infected with HIV everyday because the infected people kept their status a secret. If people continue keeping their statuses secret then it's only a matter of time before everyone gets infected. Is that the kind of world you want?

I'm a trained HIV expert. People already infected are educated 3 days in a week on how to prevent other people from being infected. We dont advice them to disclose their status to non medical practitioners because of the strong what people think about HIV. It will even make them to die quicker. Friends will avoid her, relatives will shun her, the world will be useless if she dare revel it to people around her. She is task with the responsibility of protecting them not announcing her status. The only reason you want to know her status is to avoid being infected, so you want to Stay very far away from her.

Hi nairaland Family,

kindly help out, i had to create this alternative moniker because I'm widely known here with my other moniker.

I'm a female nairalander, today is really a black Thursday for me. I have lost total Focus and concentration, very depressed at the moment. I'm diagnosed with HIv positive, being crying since morning. the worst part of it is, i'm a virgin, had never sex with any man in my entire life. I was advised to start taking medications immediately...

doctors and well experienced nairalanders in the house, will this medication prolong my life? will it cost me expenses? or the HIV will one day turn to AIDS despite the medication? I'm deeply confused!


kindly help push this to the front page, God bless you all!

I had to quote you so that you will read through my write up.

I have worked in ART centre (HIV) clinic for more than 2 years and I can authoritatively tell you its not the end of the world. You can still be whoever you want to be. You can pursue your dreams like every other normal human being. HIV only mean your immune system is weak and you are prone to other sickness ( opportunistic infections) like TB, malaria, cholera etc. So you avoid lifestyle to expose you to those infections.

I have friends that have been infected as much as since 1998. They are still very healthy. Take your medication regularly. Your viral load will drastically reduce. You will give birth to HIV FREE BABIES AND THEY WILL BREASTFEED WITHOUT BEING INFECTED. If you take your medication regularly your chance of infecting your husband is slim. My dear you are normal. Accept who you are and live accordingly. Make friends with people working in the ART centre in your area, they will be very supportive.

Hopefully parmanent cure will he out soon, but it's only those that are alive that will get it. Stay alive the cure is closer than you think. Take your medication seriously and don't revel your status to any other person because there is a great stigma attached. Peace to you.

No matter how little or big is your invested funds, we must fight this together. Transberg was registered under CAC and there are names of those that registered it. The account number was opened by a bank officer who will be familiar with those that opened the account. This mass fraud must be taken to CID and our funds must all be recovered. Let's put our heads together. If you know you invested in transberg, drop your whatsapp number I'm creating a grop as soon as possible to follow up with this fraud.

Come my people is today not 15th of September 2018?

I live around the axis, this railway has been in existence even before my birth and as far as I am concerned no renovation has been done on it so far.

We can't go far by saying we did what we didn't do.

An email I got from transberg today. What do you guys think?

This a well registered company, with well opened bank accounts so the owners identity can't be hidden for long. We need to come together as one and trace this. They should not think they should go away with that.

Until transberg provide evidence that those vehicles were actually purchased, I will have every reason to believe this is advance MMM. You can't use 6 vehicles to pay 300 people. No vehicle is in Ghana.. It's a blatant lie.

zizirecords:
I got the email from Transberg PR today. I hope this will not end up like MMM. I have an investment under the exclusive hire purchase. This 90 days suspension is very suspicious. Hmmm. �

This was my thoughts initially when I heard that the manager and the CEO is already out of Nigeria, leaving the PR to innocently manage the fleet. I'm not sure all those vehicles were purchased accordingly. There is no proof to that, the only consolation I have is that transberg was registered with CAC and their various bank account was endorsed by someone, so it's quite traceable. It will be foolishness for the managers to turn this great idea to scam. If they are tired let them request for assistance.

MarvellousGrace:
Hello guys. I was not happy when I saw that people are complaining of not getting their returns into their bank account. Though I have been paid this month, but I also have a down line who is due for payment and made withdrawal since last Saturday but yet to get the alert now, today being the third working day after withdrawal.

So, I made it a point of duty to make a call across to their customer service unit just now on 08025973031and I was told they will look into my friends issue.

I also reported other peoples complaints here and the CSU person said they had issues with some peoples acct numbers and they tried to call those concerned but they never picked their calls.

So, my advise is that we shd try and call CSU to lodge our complaints and get it resolved. And when its resolved, let's come here to tell the world that transberg is still paying or escalate if otherwise.

I even told the CSU person that somebody should attend to our people here always to avoid misinformation.

Thank you guys.

Thesame number I have repeatedly called for over 3 weeks now for me to be credited and nothing has been done. I made a request into my account since April 25th, until now I have not been credited.

Okay

He ran to the hospital when his son had an accident. Buhari is very nepotic and selfish.

HappyScent:
Instead of truck,why not buses,and lease to transportation company.@ the end of every month,you are sure of ur cool cash.truck don get jobs everyday unlike the bus

Thanks for your contribution. I think that is also a good idea

markbenny:
the answer to your question is both True and False.

I am Into Transport management and I over see a large fleet. your success depends on the type of Driver you have and how knowledged you are about the truck and business.

3M monthly is overrated, you can make like 1M or more monthly from​ each truck


the partnership is probably between your friend and his friend not with NNPC (I can prove it)

your friend should not buy the truck from his friend. go to open market, survey and buy what you need. Transport business is risky but lucrative. don't forget to use at least third party insurance

This is quite helpful. Why did you say it's not in partnership with NNPC?

Hello everyone, a friend of mine was recently introduced to someone who is a dealer in NNPC. He said my friend should purchase a truck of about 10m or so and that he could be making 3m monthly and everything is under partnership with NNPC, they manage the truck for you and all that.

Now, my friend is planning to buy two trucks. Is anyone one in this kind of business here? How true is this information?
