Randal:
We always go with armed policemen to communities to avoid stuff like this.

Armed policeman kwa. For giveaway?
This behaviour is obviously repulsive, but using armed policemen is an overkill, considering many of our police have a low threshold to shoot.
The lady here has done the right thing, she went with security officials, but poverty and greed ruined the day.

bigiyaro:
keep masturbating on my mention.

Just choose your words carefully, that's all.

Kingrefreshed:



Funny i read people saying an autopsy should be carried out on them, lolx..Are you a nigerian at all.


We dont do autopsy here abeg.

Those who would love ro argue. Name 2 people who there autopsy was done and through that,there real cause of death were ascertained.


Im waiting

I've worked in Park Lane Teaching Hospital and UNTH both in Enugu, and autopsies are done in both hospitals, and I would think most tertiary hospitals in Nigeria do same too, that's why the department of Morbid anatomy exists. The fact you are not aware of this is no licence to make contrary claims.

Autopsies are done in rare cases like this one where the cause of death is both uncertain, and may become a matter of public health importance.

Based on cursory Internet search, the department of Paediatrics in Park Lane has done 7 autopsies between 2013 and 2017. It's not a huge number, but again Enugu is not overly litigious, and people are generally educated and are less likely to challenge probable causes of death suggested by the doctors.

bigiyaro:
obviously some form of food poisoning. RIP to the dead.

Strange that you state your opinion with the qualifier 'obviously'.
Even seasoned pathologists will not dare to proffer that extent of certainty in a case as vague as this. People would normally say 'likely', 'possibly' 'probably' to clarify there's no absolute certainty, but without doing an autopsy, you're feeding us with irrefutable certainty... "Obviously" hmm

Or do you know something our law enforcement agents need to know too?

RIP to the dead.

I can't help but notice 7 full PPEs have been used at 1 burial. But doctors on the frontline cannot access PPEs to save those who are unwell.
We need to get our priorities right in this country

Smhaykins:


Pls expantiate dis part
(So lovelies, Take your ARV drugs, take fruits, eat well, within 3-6 months you can still have unprotected sex throughout your life with your partner without infecting them)...
Ow can u have unprotected sex without infecting ur partner

Of course, as long as you're Undetectable, you CAN NOT transmit HIV to anyone else.

That is a fact established since 2017.

https://www.prn.org/index.php/prn_news/news/the_partner_2_study_and_undetectable_equals_untransmittable

sircrabo:


What do you mean by " The virus is not detectable in our blood stream anymore ..."

Does it mean that a person can ba a carrier of HIV and still test negative in the lab ?

If a man/woman has sex with a positive person, are there chances he or she might not contact the virus?

There is zero chance of getting HIV from a positive person who is undetectable. Zero. No risk at all. The fact is based on solid evidence from scientific research.
The fact has been preached since 2017, and remains a revolutionary part of HIV prevention.

NextD18:
The statement "HIV is not the end of your life " is nothing but scam.

It is the end!

Just like Sickle Cell patients.

They are all living corpse. Let's embrace the truth, enlighten people on the dangers of HIV and stop giving them reasons to have unprotected sexual activities.

You're a complete dunce.
Typical ignorant man living in the past.
For your information, HIV positive persons diagnosed in their 20's have a similar life expectancy to negative people.

https://www.nhs.uk/news/mental-health/life-expectancy-for-people-with-hiv-now-near-normal/

Ridiculous news.
Covid 19 status is not a political statement. There's absolutely no reason to test all state governors and ministers just for the fun of it, if they are not symptomatic or contacts of a known case.
Its a shame even media houses have bought into this sham of pushing for testing for only political leaders and celebrities.

Astark:
their hate for other Africans are so famous that it has appeared in different articles, it's not a new thing.

Why do Somalis try to distance themselves from other Africans ...

Exactly my point, you've used the experience of One or two or three people to arrive at that curious conclusion, 'they hate us', three most often misused words

'They' - the behaviour of a group is completely reflective of the behaviour of any 1 member of that group

'Hate' - amplified awareness of the differences between groups pushed to the ridiculous extreme that if I say a mean word, then it's not a mean word, it's really hate.

'Us' - I have appointed myself spokesman for my group, therefore if I've had a bad experience, everyone else must have too.

Sound logical?

If everybody hates you all over the world, then it's not rocket science that the problem is not them, it's you.

From what you've posted, there's absolutely no evidence that "they hate us".
Can we go easy on this whole "everybody hates us" mindset. From America to South Africa, from Italy to Kenya, and now Somalia, Nigerians always feeling hated. Give it a rest guys, sheesh! When did we become such prickly pears!

FYI I'm Nigerian just in case you're wondering.

In Nigeria, we would rather thank God and the pastor instead. After all, doctors, and all health workers treat, but God heals �

TheGiftedOne:
Too bad. Had this happened in Nigeria we would have blamed it on negligence and incompetence. Unfortunately even in the so called civilized country, he still died without even a fight from the medics. My condolences to the bereaved family and friends.

Without a fight from medics? Did we read the same article as he was clearly admitted to ITU.

Condolences to the family

Just wondering if the story will be the same had he been caught sleeping with an even older oyibo woman

NGpatriot:




Another kolomental low self-esteem and inferiority complex ipob..







Abeg say hi to Trump, we are doing great in Nigeria

275/19774 expressed as a percentage equals 1.39% death rate.

Why are you creating misinformation by posting an old article in the first instance, then confusing the reader with new figures on the same thread, and then insisting both figures are correct.
Don't be foolish if you can help it.

Is there any reason you are posting an article from the 6th of March today??

babaolofin:


The world knew covid - 19 is an attack against China but kept quiet. Whenever there is such calculated attack on humanity there is usually a very strong defence of such attack as being natural by the mafia and people benefitting from such attack.

HIV (AIDS) was to reduce population particularly in black countries after Planned Parenthood Federation mechanisms failed to yield desired result.
All over the world, including Nigeria, those who made this claim with proofs and those who claimed to have AIDS (HIV deficiency) cure were attacked seriously and frustrated, some lost their life, some lost their businesses, some or their wives got infected. This shows how strong this mafia operates.

Avian Flu came at the period Nigeria was making breakthrough in Poultry farming and business exporting processed birds to some African Countries and to Europe. Avian Flu attacked a very large farm in Nigeria belonging to a serving Minister under Obasanjo. That marked the end of poultry export that time as those countries including EU issued warning against poultry products importation from Countries with Avian Flu attacks.

China has dealt a great blow on the US technology wise. As a telecom engineer I suspected this COVID - 19 as an attack.

For a telecom engineer, you chat a lot of sh.it

AkpaMgbor:

Now I realise I was engaging a dimwit.....

Before your conveniently back down under cover of me being a dimwit, can you answer me this one question
Is it safe to say Oyedepo's god misinformed him about having a grand service on a day US authorities would ban public gatherings. Or did he simply not discuss with god prior to choosing a date for this service?

AkpaMgbor:

If you even bothered to read the article instead of jumping on the thread topic like a typical Nigerian who is averse to reading, you would have known that the maryland authority banned all public gathering and hence it would be foolhardy for a church to disobey the government especially in such dire situation...it was never about oyedepo's genuiness or not...it was never about miracles or not...but you rushed on it because you saw an opportunity to pour your bile on oyedepo and the church...

Oh dear, you're irredeemable. You just chat a load of rubbish.
The question remains, why didn't Oyedepo's god prewarn him of this, why didn't his god advise him to chose a better date and time? What wasteful god would let time, energy, money spent planning all of this go to waste?
Most importantly, why is Oyedepo (and his god) bowing to a force majeure? Has he run out of faith? If his faith can move mountains, how much less coronavirus (not)

Go and sleep man, religiousity will not kill you. I'm sure you're the same one who collects bribe at work, steal from others, fornicate around, but here you are carrying Oyedepo on your head. Akpa amu!

AkpaMgbor:

Quit trying to come off as smart I can see through your pseudo intelligence.. If you claim your God is different from oyedepo's because of this thread then you are even more confused. CHRIST couldn't do miracles in Nazareth and even on the cross people like you mocked him and said " he claims to be the son of God, he healed people and raised the dead why can't he save himself now". No be today your type begin dey this earth.

Wtf are you on about
Oh my, religion is truly the opium of the masses. A man as learned as you, able to string decent sentences together, would excuse this charade because even Christ did not perform miracles in Nazareth therfore Oyedepo can't be expected to perform miracles in USA, what sort of warped, flawed, senseless logic is that? Or were you just trying to sound off a Bible verse.

Siscooh:

In as much as they can perform Miracles, the auction and direction for miracles comes through the workings of the Holy Spirit. No man determines when and how it happens. I will rather you focus on the message God is sending to us through these happenings. Get closer to your maker and stop using every opportunity to MOCK Him. The world and all it's passing glory is gradually fading away. Only God can save this world.

1 question, and I hope you give a yes or no answer.
Are christians (born again) dying of COVID 19 also?

AkpaMgbor:

So Mr wannabe atheist which God should save you from buffoonery?? When your life is on the line it is your type that will still beg saying " God help me" or " I beg you in the name of God"...

I knew a less discerning post like this will be championed by a religious fanatic like you. If you look, you can see why the initial 'God' is reverently capitalised, and Oyedepo's god isn't. Things like that are clearly not obvious to you.

merahki:



I think it’s best for us to sit this one out
We know nothing, absolutely nothing, when the chips are down
By we I mean the Africans, especially people in the area called Nigeria. We are wont to spew academic, partisan sans facts arguments a lot.
It would be real unintelligent of us to join in the COVID-19 discourse
Let’s be merely ignorant as we are, being ignorant as well as unintelligent would just be too much for me to bear
When we have not even actually identified why “rats occupied the Aso Villa for months” we now want to pontificate on the what, how and why of COVID

���
Typical Nigerians. Do you not know there are the eagle eyed among us who can see the sun from the shade lol.
They glean information from Chinese conspiracy websites, pass this on as facts, and swear by it.

am4truth:


Senseless post from a wayward and disobedient child.
I pity your likes.. No regards for God.. You just die like fowls. You better beware and retrace your steps back to your maker, before you incur the wrath of the Most High God.
Lack of home training is disturbing you.

Oh dear, you're so ignorant.
Whether or not you die from COVID 19 is independent of your religion. Even you, there's no assurance you'll survive if you catch the virus. Sinners and Born again Christians are all dying from the viral infection. Sheeesh.

am4truth:


Senseless post from an heart hijacked by the devil.
Nonsense....

Typical brainless response. I wasn't expecting much more, to be honest

max4osas:


You guys are so quick to comment.
Even without reading the post, you are quick to say words .
The post reads that Pst. Isaac Oyedepo, winners chapel USA has called for online service because a state of Emergency has been declared in Maryland.
Is he supposed to Disobey authorities and not apply wisdom.

Anyway, Data is so cheap nowadays

God save us from the buffoonery called religion in Nigeria.

So his god couldn't even tell him what day to choose to have this service go on uninterrupted . Its safe to say his god misinformed him, and has caused such great waste of funds contributed by his poor members. All that effort, money and planning down the drain, and now there'll be an online service. Why didn't his god tell him to organise an online service ab initio.

The scam called god in Nigeria. If it happens, its god. If it doesn't, you don't have enough faith, or its not gods will. My very naive, impressionable Nigerians will wake up one day.

Zooposki:
The Chinese official is right. That was my thought as well. US created this monster. I said so in a previous post, even before the Chinese official made this known.

LOL... Do you know the meaning of 'right'. Even the Chinese accept this is speculative, but you have concluded this to be a fact, for no other reason but that you agree with it.
Tell me you're having a laugh.

GamalNasser:
Why is COVID more rampart in place with active 5g signal ..is 5 g weakening human immunity ?

This one is still a baby conspiracy theorist. Go and learn before looking for who to follow your brainless claims.

OKOATA:
Must you guys be negative in all situations? This corona nonsense hasn’t caught any African in his own soil as far as I know. If people had caught it we would have heard deaths no matter what. It’s been past 14days since the Italian man came and all the people they quarantined tested negative so why are you being so negative all the time. Try to be positive Abeg. Too negative minded is bad for you and that guy you quoted.

Do Africans in Africa have a different immune constitution to Africans elsewhere?
The point being made is that you and me will not go to hospital because of flu like symptoms, hence there is an understandable concern the virus may be spreading. Of course, one hopes it isn't, but what if it is. In these times, there's no sense in being positive. Prepare for the worst, that's what all other countries are doing, while we, on the other hand, are hoping for the best in Jesus's name.

safarigirl:
this isn't self deceit though

Over 90,000 people have gotten this virus and somehow, it is yet to spread in Africa, Coronavirus is not compatible with Africans as it is with other people/continents. This is what experts have suggested

It is not self-deceit, some of you just believe that you deserve every virus the world has to offer because you are in Africa. How many Africans have been infected by SARS, another virus that emanates from Asia?

Give it time, come back in a week with your "We are immune to COVID 19" claim. Youve only just got patient zero, and you're wondering why COVID isn't spreading.

That line about deserving every virus is just utter and complete rubbish.
A viral infection will affect anyone, whether they be brown, white, black or bleached.

All epidemics start with patient zero, then the story tells itself from then on. One only hopes we can at least delay its inevitable spread.

crackkhaus:

I will summarize all this for you so you can understand how burden of proof works.

That you don't believe something you heard ever happened does not automatically invalidate the possibility of that event happening, it only means you don't believe it... nothing more.

It's left for you to prove such a thing can never happen, which will elevate your doubt from a simplistic realm of just mere disbelief...


Another example...
If someone came here to tell us that he experienced a major earthquake in Kaduna, my automatic response will be I don't believe it. Now for me to prove he is lying, I can simply tell him that geographically it is impossible for a major earthquake to occur in a place that has no plate boundary. In fact, it's more likely that Boko Haram will kill every single human in Kaduna than for a major earthquake to occure.

This isn't just my disbelief anymore, it's me providing factual basis why that event cannot happen.

Are you following me yet?
Should I continue?

Thanks for your circuitous summary which has added little in value to this discussion, if I'm honest. You seem to be most elusive in your opinions.

My whole goal has been to get people to think of possibilities to this experience. I'm glad I've got you from saying "you can't argue someone else's experience with them" to actually questioning their experience, and proffering alternative explanations. You don't see that your argument has changed its bearing since this morning, which I think is just funny and reassuring - reassuring that persistence would bring change even if subtle to you. My point has always been about critical thinking, and I remain unwavering in that line of argument.

I do not expect we would come to an agreement, but getting you to think more holistically has made my day.

I hope you have a good day my friend.
