AmazingELixir:



From the write up I really don't see any reason for the public outcry against the bill...the fact that it bestows much power to the DG NCDC who in this case is a career technocrat as against a politician gives the bill credence.


The only worries is the overzealous nature of the enforcers especially the men in black, my thoughts though.

SocialJustice:
Depends on the outbreak. What are you really worried about? These things happen everywhere, if you try traveling out of Nigeria, you're forced to take vaccines, so what is the big deal with this case?

ignis:
In a sane clime, the government would have passed a law that any COVID-19 patient who abscond or escape from isolation center will be shot to death without trial.
Maybe this will reduce the number of these ugly occurrences.

Absconding or escaping the isolation center with COVID-19 is tantamount to wearing an explosive bomb round the market.

FavourJonathan:
If those are the synthoms of COVID-19, How can someone with COVID-19 flee, where is the strength coming from?

Pensioners:
[s][/s]

You're a fool.
You should be asking why they are running away.

The patients run away because Nigerian government don't take good care of them at the isolation camps, some are being starved.

Wickedfact:
The numbers of Covid19 infections in Lagos is more than what was projected. Lagos has more than 3,000 samples awaiting testing due to shortage of reagents.

There is fire on the mountain.

loomer:
No talk that thing again.
People are just scared and not well educated about what's happening which is the fault of the government.

Even white men dey do worse than that.

MyVILLAGEpeople:
What if it's something else that killed him ??. They now attributes all deaths to Covid 19. Besides this Covid 19 in Nigeria is a big scam.
Government has seen it as an avenue to loot as usual. The pictures circulating yesterday actually shows people don't believe in it.

Alberta123:
The camera man practiced what we call social distancing

The gap between him and the covid 19 patients can build 3 isolation centers.

Investnow2017:
If you ask me, the whole argument has shifted from the main issue. Granted that some $10m has not exchanged hands, but why the hurry to pass a bill on vaccination?

Our testing capacity is still paltry, there are increasing reports of so-called "mysterious deaths" here are there. Yesterday it was Kano, today it is Jigawa and since relaxing this lockdown, I can't even predict the next destination of the "mysterious death" and yet vaccine that may not come till 2021 becomes the urgent matter for legislation!

Well as for me I am sincerely concerned if there is actually a bill in the making in this regard. I don't think that should be prioritized over any effort to better understand this virus and map out strategy on how to reduce the rate of infection while the economy remains undisputed.

I think what I made out of their concern is why the hurry. And certainly why the hurry to pass a vaccine bill?

Oh trust me I know the whole white man isn't your friend narrative.
Our politicians hate us far more than the white man could ever do.
The reason why big patnerships continue to grow is because of permanent interests and that is why the white man is very keen to contribute foreign aid to Africa so it can have a say in directing some of our affairs because we are very important to the world economy even though we constantly underrate and undermine ourselves.
If the white man takes his hands away from Africa, it wouldn't take 3 decades before we, by our own hands, send ourselves back to the stone ages.
All you need as proof is to look at your immediate environment first, and then the larger society and continent as a whole.
So, forgive me if I don't drink that from "White man is evil" Kool Aid.

GreenArrow1:
CUPP makes an allegation and you swallow it hook, line and sinker without even a second thought.

People like you roaming the streets and the Internet are more of a danger to your loved ones and society at large than Bill Gates could ever be.
It's the same kind of ignorance shown in some northern states and parts of the Middle East which have left those region riddled with polio victims this very day.
You took Polio vaccine given freely by this very man just in case you don't know.
Very easy to look for one particular person to point as the cause of all your problems as a black man whenever faced with challenges.

Left for me o. They should just hands-off all intervention in Africa and let us rot in our own mess. After all, the white man who is stepping in to fill the gaps (created by our thieving politicians who I'm quite sure you worship profusely), is the anti-Christ.

What a shame.

Offpoint:
I'm aware of that, anything to preserve humanity is welcome.

Even if Madagascar decides to send their herbs to Nigeria, these sets of ignorance minions will find something to say.

They've moved to *5G being the cause of the virus* now they've cling on Bill Gates being the anti christ.

None of them have come up with solutions so far, even their country is yet to come up nothing.

Doyin2:
Same thought I have.

Nigerians love to peck and feed on any sort of hog wash allegation.

Offpoint:
Don't take vaccine what solution have you profound? None except gibberish, there's no difference between you and Islam fanatics.

Kyukastan:
The petroleum industry bill is there, they have not passed it. This government is really out of ideas on developing this nation.

martineverest:
don't forget it's raining season..a season when flu strive.

imagine corona patient sneezing in Idumota-akpongbon-balongun markets, Alaba international market, oyingbo,Oshodi,mile 12 and ladipo markets...

Wolgrace:
What happened afterwards have been protested, pointed out, addressed, adjusted, and moved on as lessons to us. The past shouldn't hold us anymore, since he didn't escape the consequences of disobeying the guidelines. We masses that clamoured for the easing of lockdown are deliberately will repeat same mistake. Are we in any way better than him? Let him lie and rest.


Let's discipline ourselves this current period because serious hits looms soon as we mingle with ourselves.....

atheistandproud:
Vex ke? We need to grab these companies by the balls make them get sense.

martineverest:
this afternoon,a document leaked on American projection on corona cases if lockdown is suspended...the prediction was 200,000 new cases and 3000 deaths daily......


what can u deduce in Nigeria

Wolgrace:
He was someone's father, and hope your cultural upbringing promotes respect? Well, lets stop blame games. The virus has been around late 2019 before government's alertness in 2020 because it was yet an outbroke news. Silent spread.

martineverest:
they go hear whin in 2 weeks time

martineverest:
yet many lagosians arent using face masks .....and huge percentage of those using face masks are either hanging it beneath their jaws, placing it overhead or using it to cover their mouths, leaving their noses exposed....some even remove the face masks when they want to talk p

DanseMacabre:


It shall never augur well with the retired senile major general in asshole Rock.

martinmiller:
Character they say is the beauty of a woman and money is the beauty of a man that's why every man desires success and a luxurious lifestyle.

Moreover, few are willing to go through the right part of success in order to achieve it. There are certain things men do in their daily life activities that hinders their opportunity to success. They may see it as a way out of poverty, but woefully, it's the gateway to the throne of poverty.

There are many habits that can keep a man in the circle of poverty. Check them out below.

1. Gambling.

There is no such thing as getting rich quick. Financial success takes time, takes initiative, and requires relentless effort to achieve.

People who engage in gambling are deluded into thinking there is a shortcut to success. A lot of self-made millionaires today didn’t pursue any get-rich quick schemes. Instead, they make a habit of pursuing their dreams and their goals one after the other.

A lot of Nigerian youths believe so much in gambling that they made it a job. They have the believe that a single one hundred naira note can fetch them fifteen million naira. How long do intend on spending before you achieve that goal. Every known successful man today never earned their wealth from gambling.

2. Drinking Too Much Alcohol.

While the occasional glass of wine or beer is fine, drinking too much could reduce your chances to financial success. Do you know drinking too much could affect your memory and ability to think clearly ?. If you can't think and remember things clearly, how do you intend to make a plan for your financial freedom ?.

I'm not saying alcohol is evil but there is a limit to everything in life including the same alcohol. Some men believe it's never okay till they feel drunk. Only a poor man with a poor mentality thinks like that. 1-2 bottles of beer or even 2 glasses of wine is very much okay for a man with a goal in life. It doesn't mean you have to start drinking two glasses everyday. There are times when things are required in life. Say no to excessive intake of alcohol for your financial freedom.

3. Your Type Of Friends.

A wise man once said, Show me your friends and I will tell you who you are. Those words are absolutely true. Who you hang out with matters more than you may think.

Many rich people today changed their friends the day they decided to make wealth. Make a habit of associating with other success-minded individuals like you.

If you sorround yourself with drunkards and smokers, even if you don't drink or smoke, definitely one day you will see yourself doing it.

You are only going to succeed in life if you surround yourself with the right type of people.

4. Spending Too Much Time Infront Of The TV.

In a success study, it is revealed that 80% of poor people today spend more than five hours Infront of their television screen daily. Complete precious five hours.

Have you ever wondered why the most expensive cars and properties are not putting their advertisements on TV ?. The answer is simple, the people who buy and patronise it doesn't spend time on television so probably they can't see it.

The rich or success-minded people would rather be educated than entertained. They replace TV time with reading, thinking, exercising, or any other form of self education.

I'm not saying watching TV is something not important, but spending too much time on it. Spend more time in planning your map to success instead of watching people who followed their path to success.

5. Thinking Negatively.

Long-term success is only possible when you have a positive mental outlook to it. You can never be successful if you always imagine yourself poor. If you don't believe in yourself, why trying ?. You always have the thoughts of I cannot make it, that's one of the reasons you have not made it to success.

The problem for most people is that they’re completely unaware of their thoughts, positive or negative. If you stop to listen to your thoughts, to be aware of them, you would find most of them are negative. But you only realize you are having these negative thoughts when you force yourself to be aware of them. Awareness is the key.

Take your mind of negative thoughts. Replace them with positiveness. They say a believer is an achiever. Believe in yourself.

6. Doing A Job You Don't Love.

Toiling away at a job you hate will not only leave you stressed out and dissatisfied with life, it could affect your chances at getting rich because you don't appreciate the outcome.

The wealthiest, most successful people pursue their passions, you should consider doing the same thing in your working days in life. Do what you have passion for, work is fun. Passion defeats education, intelligence, skills, and any other advantage those who lack passion might have in life.

Passion makes work fun. Passion gives you the energy, persistence, and focus needed to overcome failures, mistakes, and rejection. It infuses you with a fanatical tenacity that makes it possible to overcome obstacles and pitfalls that block your path.

7. Spending too much.

Spending more than you make is the fastest and surest road to financial breakdown.

You can't be earning a salary of 50 thousand naira and be driving a car that requires maintenance of 15 thousand naira monthly, it leaves you with 35 thousand naira salary. You have groceries and rent to pay the same month with other little things to do with money. What happened to saving ?, What you save and plan for is very important even before the salary comes.

People who spend too much faces a lot of challenges, they have no money for retirement, for their kids’ college, or for pursuing opportunities that present themselves. Spending more than you earn and putting saving on your back creates long-term poverty, with no hope of escape.

8. Ignoring customers feedback.

At the end of the day, you might already have a business established, ignoring customers feedback on your products and services pulls your business down faster than the change in currency.

Fear of criticism is the reason we do not seek feedback from others. You have more chances of improvement if you listen to your customers feedback.

Feedback is essential to learning what is working and what isn’t working. Feedback helps you understand if you are on the right track. Seeking criticism, good or bad, is a crucial element for learning and growth.

Feedback provides you with the information you will need in order to succeed in future and make improvements.

That will be all for now. I hope this helped and educated you on some of the things you need to stop doing in life if you want to achieve success.

See you at the top !
