You just unknowingly insulted yourself...

Not supporting Buhari equals patriotism....

This one na mumu 'fact check'; she clearly made the statement ascribed to her about seeing dead bodies on the streets in Africa. But then, instead we Africans to simply take that as a warning and do the needful, people are more obsessed with attacking a messanger.

Guzel:
Was the fact check necessary?
Don’t tell me any reasonable person believed that

You'd be surprised at the sheer population of unreasonable/dumb folks we have in Nigeria who wouldn't only believe it, but would also share it.

The fact check wasnt necessary though, cos majority of those who believe and share
the story would wilfully disregard the fact check.

AkeNathan:
Imagine warning.

Very in-sensitive, non-empathetic government.

Is there no other way you can urge people to stay home other than drawing our attention to the sad reality of what is going on in other countries?

Have respect for the innocent lives lost in those countries please

You urge us to stay indoors but what have you provided us with?

No electricity for comfort, no water supply, no FOOD, no money.


Foolish people and their supporters

Okay since there's no electricity to be comfortable at home, you're free to go outside to kill yourself and let a disease wipe out your entire clan since all you can see from this crisis is a 'We vs. They' fight against government.

People are dying like chickens in their thousands in developed countries which even have far more robust healthcare systems than ours. But in our country we still have a massive number of both educated and uneducated, treating a clear and present danger with so much levity. If it were people who couldnt afford to feed in a lockdown, that is very understandable, but instead we just have a lot of reckless Nigerians who are senselessly stubborn and rebellious, thinking everything must be a 'we vs. they' fight campaign.

If this is the only way Nigerians can understand the grave danger it portends, then there's absolutely nothing wrong with passing the warning citing those gory examples from those countries.

sassysure:
This was exactly what they did during the south African xenophobia. They ridiculed this airpeace and with their co conspirator in US, they concocted whatever and published.
Today, air peace is still standing.

Now this again after China coro flight.

Envy is a very weapon.
How can people live and thrive in propaganda?

I saw that thread and passed cos I know the truth will surface at the right time.

Shame on this people.

Cos air peace has something to do with south east and south south, a line which people from this places hardly venture into cos its seen as reserved to some particular tribes.

It's business people!
There is joy in competition.
This is not dangote that has monopoly over everything( one day, will be the beginning of the end of dangote monopoly. People are waiting for the right time to strike)

This one has turned it to tribal victim mentality palaver. *spits*

I'm even surprised there aren't more people with your reasoning on this thread. Next time, try to comment early in the thread, many others would have concurred and followed you like cows.

Wickedfacts:
They didn't know they would be quarantined and they went home. I find this hard to believe cos they didn't fly the gate out of the area, they got out. How come others didn't see them to tell them they were to be quarantined?

They didn't log their entry into the Lagos office operating area? Anyway sha, they are safe, sound and in quarantine.

The FG thanks them, not Nigerians. Nigerians didn't send anybody to import Chinese doctors. It is between them and the FG.

Are you sure you read the report?

True.. but wisdom is profitable to direct.

Naughtysite:
Do you know what it takes to reach the armoury of your enemies at war ?

Deby has cleared over 70% of Boko Haram before reaching their armoury.

It's not a joke like you put it.

In otherwords, 70-90% of bokoharam has been based in Chad all along, out of the reach/battle territory of Nigerian soldiers. Even their main armoury is based in Chad from where they launch devastating attacks against Nigeria and then retreat to their safe protected havens. No wonder Nigerian military has been unable to finish them off all these years.

It took BH attacking Chadian soldiers for once and killing over 90 of them before their govt could wake up to its responsibilities to fish out the BH camps; something which they should have done years ago. But mumu Nigerians are mocking Nigerian soldiers, because it's their destiny to be mumus.

I dont usually insult old men, but if and if Buhari truly does this, then he's a certified BASTARD!! and may thunder fire him and his entire family.

If mallams don't kill us in Nigeria, who will?

All these organisations should stop donating these funds to govt. Just provide palliatives and help your needy members.

DarkJeddi:
Who told you that?

The very essence of Nigeria's economy and economic activities is tied to the price of oil in the world..

Petrol is currently N125 and you don't think oil prices matter?

Dollar to Naira is over N400 currently and you don't think oil prices matter?

Do you have the faintest idea of what Nigeria's economy scope entails?

According to the reasoning of millions of educated and uneducated Nigerians, dollar rose to N400 strictly because the person in aso rock is a kunu sipping dullard. You'll be shocked at the number of adult educated Nigerians who have absolutely no clue on the link between oil and exchange rate.

Yenefer:
Who is pushing thread to front pages this days in nairaland, 90% of the people who visit nairaland don't benefit from Oil. Wether Oil price is high or low..., Most people here don't rip the benefits

Lack of meaningful education and enlightenment is the reason a lot of people think the price of oil doesnt affect them. This ignorant assertion isnt unique to you; millions of Nigerians both educated, highly educated and uneducated share this same ideology that oil price doesnt affect them. Afterall, if the economy crashes and price of basic commodities rise, we can lazily just blame 'government'.

SirL0neWolf:
I don’t want it to seem like I’m soliciting members for my church but since you asked, it’s Redeeming Love Chapel, Grace land estate, <chima bus stop> Satellite Town, Lagos. Where everybody is somebody and Jesus Christ is Lord.
Our motto is “a light to the nations”

When this lockdown is over feel free to visit once and I assure you you’ll keep coming back.

Where everybody is somebody and Jesus Christ is Lord. Our motto is “a light to the nations”

See advert, I hail!

gargoylern:
The positive thing is that they are able to earn well. I met one that was working in first bank back in Nigeria and earning about 120k a month. Now she earns a little over 3.5k canadian dollars on the average working customer service after a lot of overtime. She is always stressed out sha. 3.5k is about 980k.
It looks like she is on course to save a lot of money before mid-year, and plans to visit Nigeria by July. She didn't tell me explicitly, but clearly she's going back to see how she can revive a few friendships back home that may lead to marriage. She is soooooo lonely. She cried sef. Eyah!

Making money and ending yp deptessed. I totally concur with this story, especially for Nigerians living in the western axis.

Erediauwa:
We shouldn't also turn blind eyes to some societal ills all because we're tackling Covid-19.

What's the ill in taking a random picture online to illustrate the arrival of your baby?.... if she had used the baby's face and called it hers, then it would have been different. Nigerians are just glued to social media desperately looking for any person to attack and pull down, more preferably popular people (cos that brings greater attention).

shamsin6300:
Kasala don't burst.
I luv her mature reply thus.

An absolutely mature response to the immature attention seeking lady.

dannex4adx:
You don't know what you are saying. Nigerian doctors have been able to treat infected patients with this pandemic and they are doing quite well. You are part of those with inferiority complex because you can't think and handle issues on your own. How many African countries sought the help of China in this outbreak. you are one of the problems of this country.

There's nothing demeaning in seeking advice from the people who have the most experience in dealing with this particular disease. Countries far more developed than Nigeria are doing same. It may not have been necessary for them to be flown over, but Nigerians should chill; this shouldnt be an ego contest.

eni4real:
Exponentially?? Are we talking about South Africa or Egypt..??

What is the fatality rate in Nigeria ?

Nigeria have better fatality rate than China..?
I think you are the one with low self esteem here...

These Chinese are not coming with Vaccines.

If you want to learn anything from them, Teleconference is enough to seek advice..

Bringing them here reeks of low self-esteem by this Government whose President prefer medical Tourism than developing his own Country's health System!!!

Now that they can't travel, they have to import Doctors from China..

Low Mentality Government with slavery mentality fanatics!!!

Your last statement is ridiculous tho!!!
This is 2020!!!

Only fellows with esteem issues think it would be degrading to seek advice or help.

Oh yes, Nigeria has a small number of cases, but so did the UK and US just 3 weeks ago. Just over 3 weeks ago, the US had less than 500 cases; today the US has over 420,000 cases. It will be silly for us to wait till we have 420k cases before we start acting.

hammer0:
A SENSIBLE YORUBA MAN. GOD BLESS U BRO.

PEOPLE LIKE U WILL ALWAYS BE SHOUTED DOWN BY EVIL ONES SUCH AS THE MONIKER BENEATH ME.(OBAILALA)

JUST KEEP SAYING THE TRUTH BECOS THE TRUTH IS ALL THAT MATTERS.


NO WONDER THIS SENSELESS YORUBA MAN BELOW ATTACKED HIM.

[s]

You talk repeatedly about the word 'sensible' as if you would know what it looked like even if it was rubbed in your face.

First of all, what brought tribe into the conversation between me and @eni4real? Bringing tribe into an absolutely unrelated topic is the first evidence of your foolishness.

Second evidence of your stupidity is senselessly labelling me 'yoruba' simply cos I said there's nothing wrong in seeking help/advice from chinese doctors.

eni4real:
Met with 'new' Challenge?? Since when??

Have they eliminated Coronavirus in their Country??

What is the role of WHO??

Are your China experts coming with Vaccine??

eni4real:
Are they xing with Vaccine?? Abeg take your inferior complex away!!!

They have higher fatality rate in their Country compared to Nigeria!!

Presently, Coronavirus has not been eliminated in thier Country!!!

What is all the Overhype about??

I am sure they came for those Politicians who are unable to travel abroad and get treated by foreign masters!!!

Failed Nation!!

Inferiority complex might just be the reason you're fighting the truth. Whether they've eliminated it or not, the fact remains that they've succeeded in slowing the spread and flattening their new infections curve (something which many countries are still struggling to achieve). They've suffered from it the longest and they have the widest range of experience in dealing with it. That experience explains why greater developed countries like the US, UK, Italy, France etc are seeking help and advice from China, but a citizen of a shithole country thinks it's demeaning or degrading for his country to seek advice from China? Or probably you want us to wait till our number of cases rises exponentially before we do something right?

I wouldnt be surprised if you're one of those spreading whatsapp messages that gsm mast is the source of corona virus.

eni4real:
Oga the Coronavirus started from them!!

Stop all these Overhype!!!

Overhype? What is the hype?

Whether it started with them, or it started from them, or whether it ended with them, the fact truth remains that they are the most experienced in dealing with it. And the most sensible thing to do is to ask questions from more experienced people when you are met with a new challenge.

eni4real:
Are they xing with Vaccine?? Abeg take your inferior complex away!!!

They have higher fatality rate in their Country compared to Nigeria!!

Inferiority complex might just be the reason you're fighting the truth.

dannex4adx:
so you mean Nigeria cannot handle her own problems by herself without the help of other countries. This is one of the reasons slave trade cannot stop in Africa until we learn to solve our own problems by ourselves without depending on other countries.

China happens to be the country with the most experience in dealing with this pandemic and countries all over the world, including far more developed countries than Nigeria have been seeking help from China in knowledge sharing, medicine, equipment etc. There's nothing shameful or embarassing, or dishonorable or degrading about Nigeria also seeking a knowledge share from a people more experienced in handling this disease.

Inferiority complex and just a pure lack of esteem seems to be the reason we have a multitude of Nigerians denouncing this, simply because they feel its a dick measuring contest.

SpecialAdviser:
Honestly I keep on seeing something fishy about the attention Nigeria is getting from international community about corona virus.

Nigeria with a very low incidence and these people do not go to where the problem is escalating?
May God protect us in this country.

Do we wait until the cases explode in Nigeria before we do something proactive?.... and where did you get that notion from that the Chinese arent being sought after by countries with higher cases?

Highly populated countries like Nigeria, and densely populated cities like Lagos and Kano are at high risk and need attention. Unfortunately a lot of Nigerians still live in the delusion that blacks or people in hot countries are immune. We currently have about 254 cases (which may seem small), but the US had a similar number just about 3 weeks ago and thought they were immune too; but guess what? They now have over 400,000 cases (within a space of a month).

Rooneyboy:
U are a very smart person, I've been asking same question since and yet to get an answer.
What is special about Nigeria, our numbers are still small, we have other countries that have overwhelming cases, ( some countries even openly crying) for more medical personnels, yet still these Chinese chose not to go there.
Our government should be careful.
Nigerians should be careful.

Who told you those other countries arent seeking help from China?

However we want to look at it, there's nothing shameful or embarassing in seeking a knowledge share from Chinese doctors who happen to be the most experienced in dealing with this mess. Everything shouldnt be a dick measuring contest for Nigerians.

And then you said our numbers are still small, you want our number to explode exponentially before we do something about it?.... Of course a large majority of Nigerians still live in the delusion that blacks, or maybe those in hotter climates are immune. Are you aware that just over 3 weeks ago, the US had just about the same number of cases Nigeria currently has, but they now have over 400,000 cases, within less than a month.

However we want to look at it, Chinese doctors have the most experience dealing with this mess. We shouldn't always view everything as a dick measuring contest.

How exactly was this turned into a dick measuring contest between Nigeria and china?

Chinese doctors, however we may look at it, have the most experience in dealing with this disease, and China somehow someway, happens to be one of the only countries about to succeed in containing it's spread. Countries all over the world (including those far more advanced than our shithole) are seeking advice from Chinese medical teams on how to tackle this crisis. What's wrong if Nigeria does the same?

Nigerianization:
It's better late than never my dear.
In 2015, Derby complained about the Nigerian army under Jonathan not doing enough. What has changed? How many times has Lt Gen TY Buratai PERSONALLY led military onslaughts against Boko Haram? I am not expecting Buhari to do what Derby did on account of his age and health status, but his commanders are not up and doing and THAT IS A FACT.
Even a top military official have had course to complain. So what people like us are mocking is poor leadership, not any particular individual.

You cannot rightly claim that there are still no BH camps in Nigeria, that they operate from neighbouring countries. Just as Idris Derby woke up to flush the militants from his territory, the Nigerian army should do the same

If not
Buhari should grow some balls and FIRE THE SERVICE CHIEFS

No doubt, the leaders on our side of the border have failed woefully too. Forget about the old cargo in aso rock; you cant expect a ball-less man to grow balls in his old vegetative state. But then again, the Chadian govt isnt any different.

Nigerianization:
It is actually you that lack simple understanding of the fact that government is a continuum. The simple implication of my write-up is that the army under buhari should have occupied since then, but I guess you will still not understand because you lack common sense.

The ignorance of Nigerians using this onslaught by Chadian military to mock the Nigerian military stinks. The multinational joint task force initiative requires Nigeria to deal with bokoharam camps within Nigerian territory while Chad deals with bokoharam camps within Chadian territory.

But for years, what has Chad done? Most Bokoharam strongholds and camps are around the lake chad banks within Chadian territory. From these strongholds, they cross the border into Nigeria, unleash mayhem and then return to their safe haven. If Chad had done what they were meant to do a long time ago, BH would have been eliminated. But instead they've craftily used BH to milk money from Nigeria for years.

Just last week, BH attacked Chadian soldiers killing over 90 of them; this finally forced the Chadian president and military to wake up. Now here we are, Nigerians mocking the Nigerian military over this? Sometimes one doesnt know if its just politics or ignorance that really drives these comments.

Useless media men all over the place.

This crook twisting the minds of his gullible sheep as usual. Why did he craftily refer to only foreign debt and not total debt?

Of course he knows if we decide to talk of total debt, he will be shooting his boss and his party on the foot.

Captainrambo2:
stop reeling out these fake stats from air. Bokoharam has been killing Nigerian soldiers since. Pr did you not watch the clip by major adeniyi pleading with burutai for weapons and logistics ? I know you re pained chad killed the bokoharam members Nigerian govt wantesvyo grant amnesty to.

Soooo wail all you want. They re dead

Okay sorry please! Nigerian military hasnt cleared any bh camps or killed any BH terrorists since the crisis started; even Gen Adeniyi said it. You win! I'm not willing to argue with crackheads.
