WHO and their secret agenda no go like the wonders happening in African nation as dey believe covid-19 go trigger mass death in Africa but yet dey are bn shamed 1st by Madagascars herbal cure, 2nd by Lesotho's no active cases and last Nigeria's expected thousand death ratio but uptill now we are still at below 200 death rate.

Lesotho now have an active case

Ladyhippolyta88:
It is because corona does not have a high death rate that is why people still think it is a scam.

If it was killing like black death and other deadly diseases these people shouting scam up and down will keep quiet and enter house.

Anyway thank God corona is not a death sentence because if it was people will not be claiming it is a scam

with a 99percent mortality rate? U don't know what u are saying

Kingspin:

You all are a bunch of incompetent professionals. All those pharmacy research institutes you claimed that has invented something can publish their results and conduct the clinical trials. Clinical trials do not require billions to do. When the results speak for themselves recognition will naturally follow.

Most of the world drugs derive from native herbs used by various ethnic groups whose efficacy was evident. It was the western pharmaceutical companies themselves that sought out the herbal remedies in order to synthesize it into drug tablets and capsules etc.

quite sad

The Pharmaceutical Society of Nigeria has kicked against plans by the Federal government to import the COVID-19 syrup being produced in Madagascar for the treatment of patients with the viral disease here in Nigeria.



President Buhari has given a directive for the importation of the herbal syrup.



In a statement released by its president, Mazi Sam Ohuabunwa today May 12, the umbrella body of Nigerian pharmacists said it received with utter disbelief the news of the planned importation of the herbal syrup.



Ohuabunwa said the society is shocked that the Federal government can move swiftly to collect such syrup from an African country that boasts of fewer scientists when they have consistently ignored calls to carry out a clinical evaluation for the drugs some Nigerian pharmacists claim they have developed as a cure for the ravaging viral disease.



The Pharmaceutical Society of Nigeria (PSN) has received the news that the Federal Government of Nigeria is about to import a herbal concoction called COVID Organics (CVO) from Madagascar with utter disbelief.

While in principle we would not mind Nigerian government importing any new drug that is proven to cure COVID-19 or indeed any other disease for which we have neither the capacity, nor the technology to produce locally, we are totally appalled that Nigeria is about to spend scarce foreign exchange to import ‘COAL INTO NEWCASTLE’.

Even if we are not going to pay for this, it is thoroughly disgraceful that a country that should be the leader of Africa, with the largest GDP will allow itself to be dragged this low. Nigeria has about 174 Universi-ties (43 Federal, 52 State and 79 private), 20 Faculties of Pharmacy and about 69 Federal-Funded Research In-stitutes (including National Institute for Pharmaceutical Research & Development and the National Institute for Medical Research) while Madagascar has only 6 Universities, 1 Faculty of Pharmacy and 9 Research Centers!!! Nigeria has some of the best scientists (Pharmaceutical, Medical, Biochemical, Biological etc.) in the world who have done so much work on natural and herbal medicines.



Nigeria has developed a pharmacopeia of natural and herbal products and has one of the richest flora and fauna - potent sources of phytomedicines.



Since the outbreak of the COVID-19, a number of them have raised their voices that they have herbal and natural products that can be used to treat or manage COVID-19. Some have patents. Many herbal companies and producers have an-nounced specifically that they have herbal formulations that can do what this ‘invention’ from Madagascar can do.



We have raised our voices severally that the Federal Government should review these claims and help put them through clinical evaluation as most of these producers cannot afford to conduct clinical trials. We have recom-mended that a portion of the nearly 25 Billion Naira donated/allocated for the COVID-19 pandemic should be dedicated for local research and development. But our Government has remained essentially silent only waiting to participate in WHO sponsored or mandated trials.



We have been told that Nigeria is participating in the WHO solidarity trial, but nothing on trying our own inventions and formulations. Now we want to import COVID Organics. from Madagascar to try? Why are we like this? If the world can supply us synthetic and chemically-sophisticated medicines which we apparently lack the technology to produce, why must we wait for the World to supply us herbal formulations which we can easily make and which we have similar products.''



Ohabunwa appealed to the Federal government to save the pharmaceutical scientists in Nigeria the shame of importing herbs that Nigeria boasts of in abundance

We urge our Government to save Nigerian Pharmaceutical Scientists and other scientists from the shame of having our country import and try herbal remedies which God has given us in abundance and some of which our grandfathers and grandmothers have used for ages. Let us try our own local formulations before we try COVID Organics or any other imported remedy.

Every well-meaning nation has been in a race to find cures, remedies and other medical supplies used for COVID-19, while we seem to wait for other nations to solve our problems. There is much talk but little action. This dependency mentality needs to change and now is the time. We must seize this opportunity to look inwards, build confidence on our abilities, competences and re-orientate our na-tional economic philosophy from import dependency to export driven. And Nigeria can beat India and China in the production and export of herbal products if anyone is willing to lead us down this part.

Okay

wristbangle:
Lawlessness, ignorance, stubborness is having a field day in Lagos. People don't observe the simple rule of wearing nose cover and observe social distancing. The security agents are not helping matters either hence milk the masses through bribe at various check points. Also, Motorists ( Danfo & Keke riders) have thrown caution to the wind with full capacity of passengers in their respective vehicles and ignore the preventive measures of the pandemic spread.

I already sense that there will be another lockdown. The lockdown should immediately take full effect.

says someone who doesn't reside in Lagos

wickedtuna:
lol you are just a troll

as I don forget nko? I need to know from inception what we've been arguing about

wickedtuna:
okay please whenever you do i can wait. Or maybe give me something to go read on and i can come back so we'll discuss better. Is that okay?

what is the subject matter again

wickedtuna:
really? Please enlighten me.

I no get time

ceejayluv:
He wasn't. That's another conspiracy nut job garbage propaganda

hmmm

wickedtuna:
The idea behind the use of a vaccine in reducing population can be found in the vaccine itself. People react to vaccines differently as most vaccines are made by genetically modifying the virus and injecting into the body.

To those whose immune system are weak to fight the cytokin storm (our body trying to fight off the disease), may not survive it. Does that not achieve the aim?

you are talking in the rubbish

phelonrays:


Gates and His foundation has been Saving Lives [especially here in Africa] since the '90s.....

What's his misdoing that all this Hypocrite's cum Public activist wont let him be••••


They have upgrade from 5G, it's now the generous man whom most of his sacrifice is to see new born breath and live a Polio free Live...

FFK is beginning to sound delusional

you are the one who is delusional... Have u ever wondered why he was kicked out of India?

MrPresident1:
Heaven is upgraded enjoyment, as I told someone just now every enjoyment that is on earth now will be upgraded by at least one gazillion times * one quadrillion times, then subtract sorrow, pain, sickness, disease etc, do this calculations in your mind then you will begin to have only a faint idea how sweet the tree of life will be.

How do intelligent people prefer the tree of death over the tree of life?

baba u get time to dey explain oo

They probably won't.. we so deluded in this part of d world

Chrisbella24:
No.

ohh, I schooled at yct and then church around there too...

Chrisbella24:
Well, if you say so...

It's been long I entered the yellow danfo.

Where I stay, is opposite the Fadeyi BRT stand.

200 to and fro to any where I'm going.

I spend #1000 on transport weekly.

lemme guess, shiro street?

UltimateSpice:
The idea of limiting the passengers is okay in accordance with social distancing.


But why scrap short distances? That is more of a disservice to the people.

they didn't scrap short distance.. for instance, u can still go to Maryland from ojota which ordinarily costs #100 but this time you will have to pay more and that's like over a hundred percent increase.. the fare is equivalent to those going to TBS

blackpanda:
Good one

if u know what this means, u won't say good one

blackmantis:
How will drug companies make money from their biggest market in Africa.

If Nigeria goes for this herbal remedy, expect sanctions from IMF, WHO, the US and Europe.

exactly

mr11:
If federal government means well for Nigerians they should send our medical teams to study about this Madagascar vaccine

we are subjected to WHO, we can only do what's being scripted by them. And we can't afford to back out cos of the funding

I see other African countries stepping up too in developing a cure.. mark my words

Ussycool:
Things are still smooth and manageable. If the pandemic worsen, Africa countries will pull out of WHO and use our reliabe herbal medicine from Madagascar.
We will come up with something like AHO (africa health organization).

Oyibo go kill us one day walai...

I sincerely hope this happens someday

beamtopola:
The media are just instigating fear on the populace. Most especially cnn just to get click bait and insult Trump
