Soldiers without necessary ammunitions on battlefront and Health workers without the necessary PPEs are in the same situation.
Pls help them with whatever they need.

A simple video of these PPEs would have sufficed undecided

That some nurses, no matter how few, who're supposed to be professionals, are now suddenly apprehensive, still points to some deep underlying issues, no matter how you look at it.

One problem with Nigeria is that time is always being wasted before the needful is done.

WE DONT NEED NURSES TO CURE COVID-19....The BIBLE SAYS in mark 16vs 17-18
And these signs will accompany those who believe: In My name
they will drive out demons; they will speak in new tongues; 18 they will pick up snakes with their hands, and if they drink any deadly poison, it will not harm them; they will lay their hands on the sick, and they will be made well.”
No single Nigerian Christian/Pastor can lay hand on Covid -19 patient to cure them because they are all FAKE.

So what did they protest for? Management is not telling us the whole story. Tune in next week and find out that they didn't provide the equipment.
