zicoraads:
A typical Northerner wakes up in the morning and carries his transistor radio and tunes to either the VOA or the BBC Hausa section.

Most of them are not as ignorant about world happenings as some of you think. It's not that bad.

There are a lot of slums in Lagos as well. Community transmission is a country-wide problem, not only of the North.

We have our problems, yes. But if the so called sophisticated ones had only listened and stayed in Lagos like it was being advised, we wouldn't have been here now.

So of what use was all their education and access to information?

Actually, it was northerners who travelled from Lagos to the north who are now spreading it

manontree:
Like I said earlier, this virus is fully airborne. Despite weeks of Lockdown, cases have been jumping. I, for one, fully believe that by simply breathing, transmission can occur

Masks seems to be more effective. Pls wear one whenever outside

Stay safe

Are people seeing this?

WEAR NOSE MASKS. This is the most effective way of preventing community transmission.

And this is when all our extremely incompetent Govs should start enforcing wearing of nose masks.

If i was a Gov, and any of my agants catch you outside, i might shoot you in the leg. No kidding.
Better you are shot in the leg than trying to kill people(whether knowingly or unknowingly). I will strictly enforce something that essentially saved those Asia countries close to China compared to European countries who didnt wear masks.

Of course, I will first ensure that everyone who needs food is provided for by my Govt even if it means borrowing. I will also flood the state with nose masks or ask people to improvise before coming out.

But then again, who am i kidding. This is Nigeria afterall

Kyase:
we are heading to the peak now.
i pray our peak no pass 2k

Which peak are you talking about.

It(community transfer) is just starting and you are talking about peak.

The north is unfortunately joining the frame, with Kano leading the pack. The SE may also soon join as long as people keep travelling at night from one state to the other.

If the FG and State Govts can stop their incompetence for a moment and on the pain of serious consequences prevent inter state travellling for at least 14 days whilst tracing those who already travelled, then we are in for a big mess.

It is no longer Foreign returnees transmitting this now, but people travelling from one state to the other.

God help us all.

kenny714433:



I bet, if Buhari should lead us again in 2023, we will experience yet another recession.


No matter what, something must happen and we slip into recession.

Exactly!!!

sassysure:
Economic indices was not favourable to Nigeria before.
Add this and we will arrive at that projection.

Already, I can see some Buhari die hard fans shifting the whole blame to coronavirus
Corona is the cause of everything Nigeria has been passing through since Buhari took over

You dey mind them

Shameless tools

MadeInTokyo:
Buhari again

Back to back to back recession under only Buhari

1985, 2015 and 2020

Canada here I come..enough is enough

I tell you.

How can one person be associated with all 3 recessions in a nation's history and some people still wanna make excuses for him

Corrinthians:
The government is helpless in the current situation.

Nevertheless, if the impact of the pandemic does not get as bad as predicted for the West and other trade partners of Nigeria then we might not be caught in as bad a situation as predicted by the IMF.

So, as much as we hope and pray for our nation, so must we also for those we depend on for imports and exports. We need them to remain healthy for our government to remain solvent. Imagine the downward trend continues in the US, the blowback on the world economy would be catastrophic, especially for developing and third world countries. NGOs which employ our friends and families would become part of the first casualties. As funding gets slashed for them, so would their workforce.

The scariest of all is the current price of oil at the international market. It portends grave danger for our economy.

The Govt is "helpless" my azzz.

Wasnt this Govt supppsed to have diversified the Nigerian Economy away from Oil than it met it. Was that not the promise they made.

Throughout the last 5 years of this Govt, the economy has been worst off in every economic index than in any period over the last 35 years(including 2008).

I know of 3 times that Nigeria have been on Recession. And guess what all of them have in common: Buhari

Westtimeline:
Her pathetic parents to blame jor.

Wetin come concern her parents with how badly she chose to behave in public.

Totally uncalled for

Adaogwashi1:
See this south west man talking nonsense please shift one side.







I still remain Ada ogwashi

What do you people see or gain with all these tribalistic innuendos?

Is that how you guys are in Real life??

Both the FG and RSG should stop this unnnecessary bickering amongst themselves and focus on the Corona virus fight in Rivers ans Nigeria. The issue can be easily resolved between them.

The people i really feel sorry for is Caverton Helicopters. They are caught between 2 "giants". And if they are wise and are good businessmen, they should not take any sides.

Fantastic!!!


Nobody should just bring yeye sentiments here.

If he breaks the law, he should face the law. That's how sane countries do.

saaron:
A journey of a thousand miles begins with one step.
As soon as Innoson established itself as a known automobile manufacturing brand in Africa with huge market base, they should venture into the aviation industry for the building of planes. The market for air travel in Africa is very bright.
ONE NIGERIA IS DEAD!

Bros, nice comment.

I almost "liked" it but for that last statement.

Anyways, i can understand why some people can feel that way. Am not just there yet. I believe that if the kind of people ruling us(and this is not just APC alone) are removed, there is still hope.

I still believe in Nigeria possibilities

ABSOLUTE and UTTER nonsense!!!

There is just no other way to respond to this?

Boko haram on retreat? Public perception of Govt corruption reduced by 60%? Abacha money given to the masses during this corona period? Better funding for health sector? An ethnically/religiously balanced Govt?

Lolz...hehehehe

What alternate universe do this people dwell in?

SLAP44:
God bless Governor Okezie Ikpeazu

Will you keep quiet, Bros?

.

Thank you GTB bank and Sanwo Olu.

When you see leadership, you commend it.

By the way, so a good hospital setup, save the building, can be set up in less than a week?

Hope we are learning one or two things from this corona wahala??

christm386:
Bus no hard as I expected sha, Good to see that drivers are observing the social distance, 1 in front, and 4 @ the back
Price Asaba 2 Onitsha: 200 naira, still cheap, was 150 b4 though

This is very Good.

Impressed!!!

Wasky101:
I really don't know or have seen what Woke has done, if you do know please share, I fell comparing both of them ain't fair

He was the 1st with the courage to restrict movements to and within his state.

To be sure, none of the Govs have been shown real leadership in this instance, even say Sanwo Olu who have done the best so far.

They are only "shining" cos Leadership from the centre is totally ABSENT

ivolt:
While you sat on the fence.

Who sat on the fence.

I have ALWAYS opposed Buhari from 2003 to 2019. I have never supported nor have i hidden that opposition.

I know him

hisexcellency34:
Our incoming president must not die ooo

God forbid bad thing.

El rufai is probably the only person in Nigeria worse than Buhari cos of his "heart".

Anyways, those of you who chose Buhari TWICE should never be allowed to make a choice again.

Your judgement suck!!!

seunmsg:
Get well soon, mallam.

Your president has failed WOEFULLY.

The Govs like Sanwo Olu and Wike are providing leadership in the best way they know while the nations leader is ABSENT.

God have mercy on us.

Am actually scared for the nation

johnmartus:
That shouldn't be.

It is Buhari's Nigeria, chap.....

Plzz tell him: he is doing well

senatordave1:
Is he a doctor? Those that should tackle the virus are doing so well and fg is giving the necessary support.will his live address reduce the virus spread?

Is Trump or other Presidents/PMs doctors?

Dont be silllly this morning cos of politics.

You are an example of the kinda leaders we currently have in this nation when they were younger. Scums who should have never been allowed to get to leadership positions

Gandollaar:
All of you asking for buhari are mischievous. This man has almost been ridden since he assumed office.

Forget the heavily filtered pictures and his propped up international appearances, buhari is battling with his life.

I don't even want to see his face or hear his shameful pronounciations of words.

Oh well then, who is in charge??

We need a leader at this time

[quote author= post=87807350]You are very right with that patriot.
The best thing is to keep ignoring them.
So we won't be like them.[/quote]Why has the President not address the nation in the last 2 months.

I said address the nation o. In at least 10 mins live video reassuring us as a leader.

Why is he totally ABSENT?

Buhari is totally ABSENT at the moment of this nations greatest need.

Plzz who is leading Nigeria's response to this deadly corona virus outbreak??

Buhari is not directjng anything.

Buhari us completely ABSENT at the time of our greatest need.

Those tweets were written for him by someone else on direction by the Committee on the Corona virus response

Buhari has still not address the nation for once since this crisis started about 2 months ago. What a "Leader"??

I started here almost 2 weeks ago that if Nigeria does not record a pandemic from this virus, I will publicly praise the President.

And i really wanted to be wrong about Buhari capacity for once ay least in this corona case.

But alas, Buhari is the WORST leader in the histroy of the country. In fact, he is the worst leader i have ever seen. It is mind blowing.

How could you not close the borders or very strictly monitor entrance after the 1st index case. How is it possible that in the last 2 months, you have not found it necessary to address a fearful nation, something that State Govts like Sanwo Olu are trying to do.

Why is our President so completely ABSENT.

Who is assuring us? Who is leading

MetaPhysical:
Buhari does not need to be the one on tv everyday. Where is the coronavirus task team?

Buhari is about the only Leader in the workd who ass not addressed his citizens on corona virus crisis in the world. Where as a President he should be reassuring a fearful nation by constant press briefings, he has not done one since this crisis started almost 2 months ago. The President is ABSENT at this crucial time.

Even state Govts like Sanwo Olu is providibg way better leadership than the President.

To rationalise this unbelievable incompentence in any form is beyond believe.

festacman:
Reading prepared speech is not a big deal with Pres. Buhari. He does that excellently every year before global audience at UN General Assembly. So, he could have read another speech containing COVID-19 precautionary tips if he wanted but obviously he didn't consider his address as being key to COVID-19 control. He is doing the vital policy actions and setting up necessary response mechanisms as a responsible government should do. Chikenna!

Buhari is merely being himself: unemotional, practical and introverted. People who love and support him recognize his shortcomings and weaknesses but count on his strengths. God bless him.

Plzz, what are Buhari's Strength(s)??

ZombiePUNISHER:
I wouldn't blame Buhari for exclusion of South East and Edo from the largese....
The man is a certified nepotic dullard

But rather the south east senators ... Who are all useless to the region...
They are all there for their own selfish gains and share of the national cake...

Why not simply stage a walk out...?
Let it be known that south east is no longer represented at the assembly...
Let it be known that south East is no longer part of Nigeria...

I agree completely with you here.

Buhari is a lost case. I mean, that he is a wicked nepolistic irrdentist is well known.

But what of SE politicians who are in power? By now, no Senator or HOR from the SE should be attending the national assrmbly sittings. No Gov should visit Abuja for any meeting. Thry should all boycott the Govt at the centre.

If they do so for just a week and everyone know they are serious, the cowards at the centre will buckle. And they will never try to belittle a wholr region again.

Cos how in the hell will the country take a loan of a whopping $22bn and none of that money will be spent in an entire region yet that region will be required to pay the loan when the time comes.

They are do to you what you allow them to.

[/b]However, Aliero lamented that currently, “some of the structures are either laying fallow or put into uses other than what they were originally intended for and some of the facilities in the Almajiri Model Schools are already decaying as they have never been put to use.”[b]


Just like the many projects of pdp it was just for show nd to have something to milk the treasury with but none of the acclaimed schools ever did function (that's if it were built in the first place)

I think you are confused!!
