If you go about spreading lies, conspiracy theory about W.H.O and Bill Gate vaccines just to trend and sound funky at the detriment of general health of the populace may you never get access to the vaccine, and even if you do may it never benefit your imuinity and body system....AMEN!!

You cant benefit from Polio vaccines, Chicken pox vaccines, Malaria subsidized drugs and still turn around to talk trash about vaccines and sponsors of the research just because you want to justify your pastors 666 claims

It doesn't add up that africa is being used as testing ground when we are the least hit.

Why am I wasting my breathe, these nairalanders will not understand.

White supremacy at play yet again.

Go and read up on suppressed history, many years ago, white doctors came to South Africa and Congo, under the pretence of giving free vaccines but were injecting AIDS into people.

From the inception of time, the black race has been under attack.

There is no way to put this, the federal govt has taken so much money from these people and these developments is not an option as they HAVE TO SACRIFICE THEIR PEOPLE to not just be used as lab rat but more...

Remember Melinda gates prophecies, it's now they will be enabled to inject people with things that will enforce it to play.

Go and look up the main financiers of WHO, IT'S BILL GATES.
THIS IS NOT WHO TESTING, IT'S BILL GATES TESTING.

they will offer money, but I tell u, anyone who falls for this, it would have been better you donated your orgas peacefully to save a life.
