Well you said “undulating” which is used to describe smooth transition and this I think is normal. Maybe “erratic” would be a better word. Moving from 50 to more than double of that and maybe back down to zero might be due to unavailability of testing materials and hence inconsistent testing like you correctly said.

There's quite a comprehensive approach but of course everyone will differ on whether it's enough.

1.Some monthly grant payments for the poor have been increased considerably for the next 6 months such as child grants, disability and pension payouts.
2. An unemployment grant has been introduced for the first time to citizens and legal foreign nationals of N7000 per months for 6 months.
3. Food packages have been distributed to needy households.
4. Homeless people have been put up in shelters.
5. Government spending $26 billion dollars to cushion the economy and help companies pay salaries.
6. Moratorium in place to stop landlords evicting residents and businesses.

Dr chikwe ihekweazu has done a poor job in handling covid 19 cases in nigeria.
Despite being given an open cheque by PTF
and receiving numerous grants and donors amounting to several millions of dollars from various international bodies and countries he has done a not-so-impressive job as NCDC director
His worse crime is Nigeria mediocre testing capabilities.
He possesses Good diction and handsome features and other tools not needed to combat coronavirus.
He may have a decent career as a medical doctor but he has failed so far in handling this pandemic
