Bill Gates offered House of Reps $10m bribe for speedy passage of compulsory vaccine bill – CUPP allegesPublished 2 days ago on May 4, 2020By Samson Atekojo Usman

The Coalition of United Political Parties (CUPP), on Monday, alleged that it has intercepted a human intelligence report that the Nigeria House of Representatives leadership was poised to forcefully pass the compulsory vaccine bill without subjecting it to the traditions of legislative proceedings.

In a statement issued and signed by the spokesperson of the opposition political parties, Barrister Ikenga Imo Ugochinyere and sent to DAILY POST in Abuja on Monday, the body urged lawmakers in the lower chamber to rise against impunity.

The body in the statement alleged that a sum of $10 million was offered by the American Computer Czar, Bill Gates to influence the speedy passage of the bill without recourse to legislative public hearing, a development they averted as anachronistic, adding that the Speaker, Femi Gbajabiamila should be impeached if he forces the bill on members.

COMPULSORY VACCINATION FOR EVERY CHILD

The new bill also mandates parent or guardian of “every child in Nigeria” to “ensure that the child is vaccinated against infectious diseases such as diphtheria, measles, polio and meningitis”. It also requires a notice for vaccination to be issued for newborns “immediately” after their birth.

Its section 47 also empowers the NCDC DG to direct anyone not vaccinated for a disease during an outbreak to do so.

It states: “(1) In an outbreak or a suspected outbreak of any infectious disease in any area in Nigeria, the Director General may by order direct any person or class of persons not protected or vaccinated against the disease to undergo vaccination or other prophylaxis within such period as may be specified in the order.

“(2) In addition to the power conferred by subsection (1), where it appears to the Director that — (a.) an outbreak of an infectious disease in any area in Nigeria is imminent; and …

“(b.) It is necessary or expedient to do so for the securing of public safety, the Director may by order direct any person or class of persons not protected or vaccinated against that infectious disease to undergo vaccination or other prophylaxis within such period as may be specified in the order.

“(3) Any order made under subsection (1) or (2) may specify the person by whom and the way the vaccination or other prophylaxis is to be carried out.

“(4) Where any order is made under subsection (1) or (2), the Director General shall cause notice of the effect of the order to be given in such a manner as he thinks necessary for bringing it to the notice of all persons who in his opinion ought to have notice thereof.”

‘SIX MONTHS JAIL FOR FIRST TIME OFFENDERS, N2M FINE FOR FALSE INFORMATION FROM BLOOD DONORS

The bill also provides for stringent penalties for some offences, including six months jail for first time offenders under any of the act for which no penalty was given.

Section 68 states: “Any person guilty of an offence under this Act for which no penalty is expressly provided shall — (a.) in the case of a first offence, be liable on conviction to a fine not exceeding N100,000 (One Hundred Thousand Naira) or to imprisonment for a term not exceeding 6 months or to both; and …

“(b.) in the case of a second or subsequent offence, be liable on conviction to a fine not exceeding N200,000 (Two Hundred Thousand) or to imprisonment for a term not exceeding 12 months or to both.”

The statement read:

“Opposition Coalition (CUPP) has intercepted very credible intelligence and hereby alerts Nigerians of plans by the leadership of the House of Representatives led by Femi Gbajabiamila to forcefully and without adherence to the rules of lawmaking to pass the Control of Infectious Diseases Bill 2020 otherwise known as the Compulsory Vaccination Bill which is proposing a compulsory vaccination of all Nigerians even when the vaccines have not been discovered.

“This intelligence is coupled with the information of the alleged receipt, from sources outside the country but very interested in the Bill, of the sum of $10 million by the sponsors and promoters of the Bill to distribute among lawmakers to ensure a smooth passage of the Bill.

“This will manifest in a wishy-washy public hearing which the promoters still insist on cancelling under the pretext of containment of the spread of the coronavirus. The intelligence is that the House will under whatever guise pass the Bill tomorrow 5th May, 2020 upon resumption.

“The Nigeria opposition rejects the Bill and urges opposition lawmakers in the House of Representatives to confront the Speaker of the House with these facts tomorrow at plenary and resist every plan to illegally pass the Bill.

“We have been informed that the alleged deal on the passage of the Bill was struck during a trip to Austria a few months back while the financial support for the promotion of the Bill was allegedly received last week to mobilize for a push leading to the hurried attempt to pass the Bill by any means necessary.

“Nigerians are reminded that at present, there is no discovered/approved vaccine anywhere in the world and one now begins to wonder why the hurry to pass a Bill for a compulsory vaccine when there is none.

“What if the world eventually does not find a vaccine or cure for coronavirus just like it has not found a cure for HIV AIDS? What is the hurry in passing a Bill based on speculation or is there anything else the leadership of the House would want to tell Nigerians? Is this bill what will stop the mass deaths and infections rising in Lagos, Kano, Abuja, Gombe, Borno, Kaduna, Ogun, Bauchi and indeed all over the country?

“Is this Bill going to revive and grow the economy and reduce hunger and give us more testing kits or bed spaces? Is this Bill going to stop the stealing of palliatives meant for poor and vulnerable Nigerians? Is it true that all these noises for the Bill is all for the alleged $10 million?

“The leadership of the House needs to start speaking now on why the hurry when there are a lot of urgent Bills to be passed which are not being attended to.

“Where is the Bill to make the wearing of face masks compulsory now that the Federal Government has against all wisdom insisted on easing the lockdown and the people have trooped out already without obeying the health regulations that will make them safe?

“Where are the economic revival Bills to protect jobs and vulnerable Nigerian workers whose livelihoods are threatened daily by this pandemic? Where are the Bills to compel the Federal Government to look inwards and encourage emergency research for the manufacture of essentials like test kits, ventilators, Personal Protective Equipment, vaccines, drugs, masks, sanitizers etc

“All opposition lawmakers should prove they are not part of the evil or partakers of the financial inducement and confront Speaker Femi Gbajabiamila to come clean.

“Let all parliamentary rules be dropped and opposition members should turn the House upside down using their parliamentary privileges if that is what it takes to stop this foreign-sponsored Bill.

“Why make a law for a vaccine that has not been discovered? Does it mean that Femi Gbajabiamila and the promoters have an idea of the vaccine and when it will be ready? When nations like Madagascar are making local remedies which is working, APC is making a law to compulsorily inject Nigerians with vaccines our former slave masters have not yet discovered.

“The plan to push the passing of the bill is evil

“The Nigeria Centre for Disease Control, NCDC did not make any contributions to the drafting of the Bill and has even told Femi Gbajabiamila to suspend the Bill as the timing is very wrong but Mr. Gbajabiamila believes he can secure the silence and acquiescence of the NCDC with all the illegal powers been provided for the NCDC in the Bill hence he still wants to push ahead with it the passage.

“Like we told the Federal Government before, do not bring Chinese doctors, shut our external borders, do not ease the lockdown, do not relax Kano lockdown and they refused to heed to wise counsel preferring to play myopic politics with the lives of Nigerians, today the community transmission is getting worse and it has almost been confirmed that the so called strange deaths in Kano of hundreds of citizens is a result of the COVID-19.

“We are saying loudly again and calling on House of Representatives to suspend this Control of Infectious Diseases Bill and await for proper input and scrutiny after the pandemic and charge all efforts towards giving the needed support to reduce the spread and find a homegrown solution.”

Lol, please read the original post, nothing was said about sterilisation. I was just fooling around with that crazy Correcto.

This bill was created to legalise things the government is already doing to fight corona virus and to safeguard citizens.

No, the part about making vaccination mandatory during outbreaks is very clear. Not even in the West is that tenable, it infringes on human rights. Those who want to be vaccinated are free to do so and aren't under any risk of infection by the unvaccinated, so , the latter should be free to practice their rights. Esp if the drug hasn't been tested on volunteers ab ignitio

The bill clearly has to be worked on, I know. It was wholly plagiarized from the Singapore 1972 infectious diseases Bill. In a pandemic situation, there have to be some serious measures. Locking down cities and restricting movements on it's own for example is against All aspects of human rights, but it has to be done to fight such disaster. So also some other measures that may seem harsh are necessary to control pandemics.

The bubonic plague wiped almost a third of Europe in the middle ages.. if the only option they had was mandatory vaccination, they'd have grabbed it.

No, forced medical intervention and lock down aren't the same. The former can get a health practitioner sued. They don't even cone close for comparison.

I compared them in terms of perceived human rights violations. You can still sue the government for not allowing you leave your house, theoretically. Anyway, as i said, they will definitely review the bill to suit our clime and cultural realities. we can't just copy and paste a foreign bill verbatim.

Have you considered that with this provision they can mandate you to take any vaccine that they deem fit for you.

What stops bill gates in unleashing Ebola and then Lassa Fever and from there they get you to take the vaccines for these viruses?

You will be loaded with as much vaccines as they deem fit until you come down with Gulf War Syndrome - an AIDS like disease that was prevalent among Gulf war veterans who were loaded with a cocktail of vaccines before being deployed to Iraq.

Yes, vaccines do comprise your natural immunity.
You are citing a worst-case dystopic scenario. How about in the events of natural outbreaks? I guess left for you we'll leave the weak , old and vulnerable to their fate during recurring epidemics/ pandemics.

All I saw above was about diphtheria, measles, polio and meningitis.
I have a close friend that wasn't immunized as a child, he eventually contracted polio, and the scar of it IS and WILL continue to hunt him for the rest of his life.
There's nothing wrong taking a vaccine for any of these.... But forcing it on people is what I don't want.
Let those that don't want to take be left alone, others that want to take... Let them be given.

That's just my take.
That is a cover up man
The real vaccine will not be disclosed nah
The question you should ask is why the rush

You've forgotten that we are in a pandemic, efforts have to be made legislatively, practically..... even militarily to cut down the infections and fatalities. another option is to allow for natural selection. Make zero effort and allow the old,weak and vulnerable to perish.

Lets assume the vaccine is perfectly safe and there are no hidden agendas behind it. You see the problem is that your vaccine solution has to be implemented on all by force for it to be effective.

It requires a tyrannical Medical order to have it effected. What this useless Bill is all about.

This is where it goes against the right to decency.

I am not owned by anyone. Be it the State or a corporation.

well, the mandatory vax in the bill are targeted towards children. There are loads of safe vaccines which I believe you and perhaps your children have taken. They will surely discuss the bill and consider the concerns of the citizens.

From the write up I really don't see any reason for the public outcry against the bill...the fact that it bestows much power to the DG NCDC who in this case is a career technocrat as against a politician gives the bill credence.


The only worries is the overzealous nature of the enforcers especially the men in black, my thoughts though.


The dg ncdc today is a technocrat, how about tomorrow? You guys should think for once nau. And how would you even trust the DG? How would you know he is not doing the bidding of the globalist for career acceleration? Of all the plagues in this country, why the rush and pressure over this?

This is where it gets worse. How can you subject children to something that was produced with the most toxic and noxious materials.

Or are you not aware that vaccines are produced from stem cells harvested from aborted babies and contain traces of toxic materials like lead apart from the virus itself that you seek to inoculate the child from?

Listen to me carefully again.

AFRICA IS THE MOST VACCINATED CONTINENT BUT STILL REMAINS THE MOST DISEASED ON THE PLANET.

THE REASON FOR THIS IS NOT LACK OF VACCINES BUT THE LIVING CONDITIONS THAT ALLOW DISEASES TO TAKE ROOT!

YOUR SELFISH GREEDY LEADERS CHOSE VACCINES OVER IMPROVING THE LIVING STANDARDS OF THEIR PEOPLE BECAUSE :

1. THE VACCINES SAVE THEM FROM INVESTING IN PROPER DESCENT HEALTH CARE

2. THE VACCINES SAVE THEM THE EMBARRASSMENT OF HAVING OUTBREAKS OF OLD WORLD DISEASES THAT ARE A SIGN OF ABJECT POVERTY

3. THE LIKES OF BILL GATES PAY YOUR GOVERNMENT TO VACCINATE THEIR PEOPLE FOR FREE

From 3 above you can not help but wonder where is the catch? Your answer will be that ''Bill Gates is a benevolent and kind man who wants to give back to the world''.

BULL SHIT!

Charity begins at home. Why is Bill Gates not pushing his vaccine solution in Europe, America or even Israel?

The bill isn't conceived for the purpose of this current pandemic alone but for all infectious diseases both existing and envisaged..

DGs of NCDC are groomed from the medical ranks not some random appointments of poiltican or political jobbers.

On the school of thoughts that heads of NCDC will align to some global conspiracy, such notion still lies with the realm of speculations and if that can happen within the NCDC it could as well happen in other spheres of our national life.
