“As the State Chief Executive, I want to sincerely thank this young lady for her patriotic spirit which aided health officials to get relevant information in this direction


May I, therefore urge you all to remain calm because there is no cause for alarm. The State Government is fully prepared to ensure that the incident is contained to avoid further spread. ”

We have to change our mindset towards certain professions.

Not every police or army officer collects bribe
Not every model is a prostitute
Not every female marketer sells her body
Not every female nurse sleeps around

That was harsh. The lady actually behaved responsibly by isolating herself when she returned from her travels.

Two worlds.

Some are staying indoor with 24hrs electricity supply and emergency services operational.

They can easily place orders online or make calls if they run out of supplies (food/groceries/toiletries) or need medical attention with thousands of volunteers (delivery guys/health workers/police) responding.




Another world, citizens are scared of staying indoor, how are they going to survive indoors for a month.

No electricity, no money, no food.

If they run out of supplies or they need medical attention, who are they going to call

I see some people breaking out of the lockdown after 1-2months and breaking into various stores to survive. But i pray it won't get to that

Earlier today I begged Nairalanders for 2000 Naira and around 6pm today I got alert of 1000 Naira each from two different from people who didn't know me from no where, they have never met me, they have never spoken to me before, I didn't do any work for them, they were not owing me.
Lord God answer this prayer that is coming from my heart tonight bless those two people abundantly, forgive whichever sins they might have committed, whatever they have been asking from you heavenly father please grant unto them, don't let them lack or hungry in their entire life, no evil shall befall them and their families in Jesus name, they will never beg for bread, their cups shall overflow, you will not die untimely, money will never be your problem in life from today, sickness will not know you and those who you love, no weapon formed against you shall prosper in Jesus name.
The money meant a lot to me and some other people. I can't thank you enough, may heavenly Lord bless you abundantly throughout your entire life. May he bless me too so I can help anonymous people. This really touched me.

All I see is wickedness from all these travellers, when u know about this virus yet u traveled abroad and come back to Nigeria to infect others and I also see that the whites want it to spread it, they will test people going into their country but won't test those going out of their country,
