Chaiiii, so this Lagos total lockdown from tonight is real huh? I swear I thought Buhari was just playing. Pease someone should just do 'mistake' an transfer money to my account, may hunger no kill me the next 14 days abeg. If I don't login on Nairaland, after 3 days from today, just know that na Buhari and Sanwo Olu kill me. Buhari, I know you don't like me and I don't like you and we don't like eachother, and eachother don't like ourselves and ourselves don't like the 2 of us but please credit my account before hunger kill me Stanbic IBTC bank! Don't turn my children to orphan embarassed. Don't turn my girlfriend to widower, she's too young, and na Lagos girl she be, she will date another guy after 6 hourscry
I said it before, Buhari is a disaster. Till now he never credit my account since morning. Well, over to you Sanwo Olu. Because if I don't see money for my account, don't expect me to obey lockdown. Better let me see money before 11PM, or else..................

Being smart and well educated doesn't mean you will always make sound judgement. Same way I I'm baffled when these so called professional coaches and players do some dumb things.

I'll totally disagree with anyone who thinks we shouldn't be on lockdown.

Prof, if you want to how ineffective these your grammars are, disobey the lockdown order and come out!
Most times, when people lack the needed mental prowess to comprehend and articulate a rational response to a public discourse, they resort to making fallacious arguments.

But seriously, even though we all know things ain't that good in Nigeria.
But what exactly do you guys want this president to do that you guys won't complain?
You complained that he closed the borders too late and now he's taken another step people are still complaining even the so called elite.
Re: Soyinka Reacts To COVID-19 Lockdown: 'We Are Not In War Emergency' by ecclize: 8:33pm On Mar 30, 2020

how did Buhari reached that decision singlehandedly...

Wole Soyinka is fast losing his reputation or is it old age? Anyone still doubting the Yorubas are the problem of this country?

[quote author=johnmartus post=87933878][s]You're not making sense sir. I'm sorry to say. People are die in their number you hide yourself in forest where they said you build your house.

And you are there spewing nonsense. Retard!
Re: Soyinka Reacts To COVID-19 Lockdown: 'We Are Not In War Emergency' by wink2015(m): 8:34pm On Mar 30, 2020
Nice contribution from Proffessor Soyinka.

He is simply telling Buhari not to steal the power of the state by duplicating the lockdown.

Only Lagos state government has the power to restrict movement within Lagos.
Re: Soyinka Reacts To COVID-19 Lockdown: 'We Are Not In War Emergency' by Neoteny7: 8:35pm On Mar 30, 2020
This redundant prickfessor is up to his usual verbosity again, full of empty words.

The UK and Italy are enforcing lockdowns, no one is questioning it because people know there's no other way to stop the spread.

I guess this wordy prick would rather we all go down in flames because constitution.
Re: Soyinka Reacts To COVID-19 Lockdown: 'We Are Not In War Emergency' by Beetobee(f): 8:35pm On Mar 30, 2020
Professor Soyinka, he does have the powers to do so without the National Assembly in an emergency situation.Now what do you call this present situation?

if you're staying at home with money you're in self isolation, if you're staying at home, broke, you're in quarantine, but if you're staying at home, broke and with trouble wife, you're in total lockdown.
I love this grin grin grin grin angry

This is not the time for English or law. Just look at Italy, Spain, USA. etc....
If these sophisticated nations are this hit , I wonder if Nigeria will not be wiped out if allowed to spread without stern control measures.
