- The UN has scored Nigeria high over her response to the coronavirus outbreak
- The rating was actually given by the secretary-general of the UN, Antonio Guterres
- Guterres pointed out that as a developing country, Nigeria did much better than other nations who are considered more advanced
The international community has rated Nigeria's
emergency responses to the outbreak of
coronavirus in the country. The rating was given by the secretary-general of
the United Nations (UN), Antonio Guterres on Friday, April 3, in New York during a press briefing. Guterres mentioned Nigeria as one of the
developing countries in the world that have
demonstrated the capacity to respond to the global
pandemic.
The UN chief said that he was especially impressed
with the fact that Nigeria was able to put in place a
hospital in a stadium compared to some developed
nations who experienced a lot of difficulties in
efforts to give similar responses.
Guterres pointed out that as a developing country,
Nigeria did much better than other nations who are
considered more advanced. He said: “So, there are efforts done by countries in
the developing world that we should point to
because they represent a very strong
determination."

Yes we did well by quickly converting the stadium to a quarantine center.


But the speaker quickly added that the resources needed to fight the Covik one nine birus was lacking and the UN must look at that seriously.

Some Nigerians no doubt want this country to fail so that they can keep badmouthing its leaders.

May they loose woefully in the end!

Whoever wants Nigeria to fail will fail woefully!

Lagos and sw are usually the ones that boost this countrys profile yet they are the most verbally disrespected area.

Commendable

Especially some semi educated ungrateful hotheads from the land of the rising sun.
They come to a Yoruba man's platform(Nairaland) showing their ethnic bigotry and when you reply the favour they start scurrying to their dark holes like scared rabbits
