That's true to some extent.
Blame Bubu the mumu for not acting on time.
it's not true to some extent, it is 100% and totally true...if u followed the outbreak in Nigeria, all the cases we had initially where returnees.

Very true. They kept the borders open waiting for the themselves and children to return before closing it. Abba Kayri, Bubu daughter, Atiku son, Some Governors, 36 legislator who on a workshop all came back March and refused to quarratine, self Isolate or go for testing. Instead the were holding meetings attending functions and moving round the country risking the lives of about 200million people. What a wicked world. They thought it was a joke or they were immune to it. The Italian index case in Lagos was promptly handled and may be we would have check the spread there but no we had to wait for the high and mighty. When even America stop flight from Europe we did not. What do we expect. May the Lord give us wisdom to manage this.

Well, let me be a bit more lucid. If states controlled their borders (air, land and seas), they would be at liberty to make independent judgements that could prove critical to their management of the spread. Fine and yes, it may still have entered the country eventually, but we would never know how different the impact would have been had Lagos for example had more control over regulation of her entry points. I would argue that it would have been able to better manage the spread under such circumstance. We have all seen how some individual states have manage to curb the spread via tough measures of interstate border controls. Similar approach could have worked with international borders.

Aren't people sneaking in and out of the country border everyday. People from Togo, Benin, Abidjan, Niger, Chad, and Cameron? Especially those co flict ravaged border communities. I say it was bound to come in anyway. The fact that we had time to prepare and still wait to blame FG because of bitter politics is very wrong. Who would have stopped Abba Kyari's movement? Stop pretending as if the Abba Kyari arrogance is an APC or PDP thing. it is a Nigerian thing and that virus was bound to enter Nigeria.

The virus came in from the West, not African nations.

They were busy boasting about their preparedness instead of shutting the damned boarders. That's what they usually do boasting instead of actually taking tangible measures against any foreseen disaster until eventually it strikes and they start running around like headless chickens.
Now imagine at the hunger and economic meltdown that would follow this disaster. I guess they may not even be preparing for that.
