There's absolutely no need of them joining the seat at home order since the job of the tanker drivers do not include carrying passengers but fuel.

They are a silly and mischievous lot who want to always use every situation to their own advantage.

Oya let's blame B00hari...leggo

I am not responsible for your inferiority complex.

Of course being an atheist doesn't make me smarter than everyone else. Me wey I be olodo

Happy coronavirus to you bro

Werey say na inferiority complex..You felt threatened by a harmless post from a Christian that you had to spit bile and bumkum

Park well

Talking to you is a waste of time.

You don't even have anything to contribute

Naso...Once they've put you in place, you realise it's a waste of time, yinmu.

Next time, let others be wity their choice of belief. That you've chosen a certain path, doesn't make you smarter than anyone else.

You also forget that China have been able to get control over the virus because they don't have anyone saying they will go to church or mosque by force.

At the end of the religion has done more harm than good.

Well, as long as pastors and other religions leaders get paid handsomely by gullible believers I guess it is ok.

Stupid people deserve to get ripped off

Oh yeah, they got it under control while the rest of the world is still reeling and suffering or after they had already lost thousands of people? You have no point. You made it about religion, I didn't I only used that to highlight your flawed examples and bias.

Whatever you mean by more harm than, is your hot plate of beans...My point is, let everyone be. You are not smarter by being an atheist than any one out there. No one dipped hands into your pocket to "give any pastor", I wonder why you are offended by that.

Let everyone be, just the same way you're allowed to believe you dropped off a monkey.

hahn:
No sir

In South Korea there were only 30 cases of the coronavirus with no outbreaks until case 31 decided to go to church and ended up spreading to virus to over 1000 new cases.

So you see no one has right to believe what they want when it will duplicate the same level of stupidity and put the lives of thousands at risk.

The plain truth is that religion is harmful to us especially in situations like this but unfortunately many are too delusional to realise it

Atheists too are spreading the virus, coronavirus spread from a communist China that has a tough stance against religion, so your one sided example makes no sense. There's nothing harmful about religion as there is "freedom" to believe whatever, as long as it doesn't infringe on anyone's right.
You are free to believe whatever, you do not have the right to tell anyone what to believe or not. It is the same "freedom" of religion that made Trump, call for a national day of prayer-You are not better or smatter than Trump.
So believe yours, let others be.

hahn:
Why believe in a god that is obviously incompetent in battling this virus?

What has god done to solve this issue?

What has it done to even prove it actually exists?

Please try and get sense from this pandemic. It is one thing to survive the coronavirus while people are dying worldwide and it is another thing to remain stupid after we have managed to defeat the virus

Let everyone believe whatever they want to, as long as it doesn't affect you. Just the same way you're allowed to believe whatever, let others be.

U still don't get it. Yes it's not very deadly but it can be very devastating as a big chunk of the population can get infected at the same time. By that time there will be no one to take care of the infected as all medical facilities would be filled up, doctors and nurses would be infected, even self quarantine would be difficult by then because where u want stay when everyone don get infected? See eh. Covid 19 is a sickness that people don't need to die from, but when there are too many infected there will be shortage of medical supply. Do u know many people would die if a big chunk of the population contract malaria at the same time. That is a disease that normally don't kill so far u use anti malaria drugs.

And nobody is talking about total lock down. Nigeria have not reached that stage. Just do as much as u can to reduce the rate of infection, that's all the govt and WHO is asking. Social distancing, washing ur hands all the time. These things won't stop the spread but would reduce the rate of spread. Enough time for the sick to get taken care of without over flowing the hospitals and maybe enough time before a drug can be found. South Korea and Japan did not lock down their country and they are managing the virus because there citizens are doing the right thing.

Valid points... Unfortunately, Nigeria is not setup for those kind of things to work here. Social distancing can ONLY work in organized societies where the literacy level is high and great economies.

Nigeria has a large uneducated populace as well as millions of informal businesses that cannot practice social distancing.

greenhulk:
Like I said. We can if we want. Like right now a lot of people still don't think the virus is fatal (which was what the Italians thought at first ). By the time death rate starts souring high u no go even need govt to force u to do what u got to do.

By the way how can u compare Ebola and lassa fever to covid 19? Yes they have much greater mortality rate but can easily be contained as u need physical contact with the fluid of the infected to get infected. They are not airborne like covid 19. I'm fact covid 19 is one of the fastest spreading disease the world has ever seen.

No matter how covid 19 spreads, it's still not deadly. Around 80% of victims have mild symptoms while many are asymptomatic. The most vulnerable, have been the elderly and those with weakened immune system.

The only reason why you're making noise about it, is because it affected the "oyinbo" and they're grinding the world to a halt, as a result. If it did not affect them, no matter how communicable covid is, you won't see it as a big deal, since "oyinbo" did not declare it deadly.

Miniso:
yea i understand. why nt remove yur pix. bt i will really love to connect with u. mayb on fb or u search for ma username in yur mail

gnykelly:
enjoy your ignorance

Quiet abeg. Alarmist!

juniorstar:
then we are doomed

Lol..No we're not doomed. We'll be fine

Angelfrost:
Nor be lie sha... But, no one is ever dropping dead anywhere. We will surmount Corona like it's nothing!!!

Exactly...lol

Angelfrost:
We will have to learn it and do so FAST!!!... Some Italians and Americans made such statements months ago, see where they are now.

The most populous and popular places in most parts of Europe have become quieter than cemeteries.

Nigerians must learn to isolate, or be compelled to by security forces.... This is not the time for owambe!!! Postponing such frivolities won't kill anyone!!!

Lol...These societies you're calling have established economies and working government. Millions of businesses shut down, will receive support from their governments.

Here in Nigeria, where millions of informal sector businesses thrive on day to day sales and won't receive ANY support if they stay indoors. Who'll feed those millions of people who have to go out daily to make ends meet?

Except Nigerians see people dropping dead on the streets, you can take it to the bank that millions of Nigerians won't give a hoot, afterall we have had ebola and we're still battling lassa fever with a way higher mortality rate and life goes on.

Nreebge:
It will work, just the UK, Italy and Spain even in Wuhan they accepted the fate because life is supreme. Who wouldn't go home and isolate himself/herself when around you one can feel the impact of the virus. My kid bro in Guangzhou sent videos of this corona and i stand to tell you that the only remedy to this is " Abstain for now and Sustain with that which will reduce the cases .

Lol...These societies you're calling have established economies and working government. Millions of businesses shut down, will receive support from their governments, so they can afford to heed the order to stay indoors.

Here in Nigeria, where millions of informal sector businesses thrive on day to day sales and won't receive ANY support if they stay indoors. Who'll feed those millions of people who have to go out daily to make ends meet?

Except Nigerians see people dropping dead on the streets, you can take it to the bank that millions of Nigerians won't give a hoot, afterall we have had ebola and we're still battling lassa fever with a way higher mortality rate and life goes on.

greenhulk:
Yes it can work if we want it to. Don't be like Italians. They took this thing for granted. But right now social distancing is now the norm in Italy because the virus has hit them hard and they have seen how devastating it could be.

It can't work, take that to the bank. Except Nigerians are dropping dead on the road, millions of Lagosians won't give a flying fvck.

Lassa fever with a way higher double digit mortality rate, did not make us practice social distancing...Ebola did not either.

There are millions of informal businesses in the city that thrive on day to day buying and selling, how do you expect them to survive? Even America with a huge economy is reeling from the effect, you now want our very poor and majority informal sector to practice social distancing or pretty much lockdown?

Like I said, till Nigerians see people drop dead in their droves on the streets, many won't give a hoot.

gnykelly:
OK... until you start recording thousands of death before you start distancing

No be only thousands of death...We did not practice social distancing when we had ebola, we did not either, when we have battled lassa fever with a way higher mortality rate.

It cannot work in Lagos, simple! Lagos is way too disorganized for anything of that magnitude to work.

Lol...How many places can they seal? Nigerians are generally not "introverted" (for lack of better word) people. Social distancing or whatever they call it, cannot work in our society.
