They should remove the interstate restriction, it is only causing increase in prices of goods and services.

You lockdown, the count was not zero so why mull lockdown again? Instead of another lockdown, improve enlightenment and allow some cases to teach the people lesson on not adhering to the rules. People may have to learn the hard way. undecided



You can never allow some cases to teach people lesson as you have said because doing that can also make you that is saying this to contact it. Allowing some people to contact it is promoting spreading, No body will be save if it keeps spreading, not even the president or the governors.

Time to remove all lockdowns. Unless you have a vaccine coming in about 2 weeks, then just remove the lockdowns and let people resume their normal life back. Yes some will die, but most will survive.

You want FG to start playing with human lives just because of the senselessness of its citizens. It is when hundreds of people start dropping dead that you will get sense.

If more advanced countries are having a hard time containing the virus, is it Nigeria that has very few doctors per capita that can fight it? Lol
Which hundreds will be dropping? Lock down is not a solution and has never been any where. infact the best is to train the immune system by expose to the virus

If the virus has come to stay and it will take 2 years to return to normalcy, so govt should lockdown the country for 2 years?
...and provide palliatives for 2 years?

This virus will be here for a while. We should better learn to adjust. A lockdown doesn't make any sense.

Truth is the covid figure has no truth in it both here in Nigeria and even in America. The powers behind global health want us to believe covid is the deadliest thing that ever happened. If you have flu, it's recorded as covid.

See the kogi case for instance: the gov said there is no case in the state, NCDC took offense and would do anything to prove kogi has a case.

Giving the awareness so far, if kogi had a case, patients would have called the ncdc hot line by now.
To make matters worse, cases brought 2 all general hospitals and other governmental hospitals are treated as covid 19 cases. My neighbours kids were playing with mine in the compound on Sunday when suddenly we heard an unusual loud cry. I dashed out immediately with other co-tenants met d landlords nutty daughter on the ground, unable 2 stand up, immediately, we rushed her2 mother and child not too far from d house. I waz d one running doing 2 get d hospitals' requirements buhh, when the mum came around, I left as I had other things 2 attend to.
I decided 2 check on them d following day@d hospital only for me 2 see d hand bandaged with pop, the lil girl jumping up and down like nothing had happened. So, I waz asking our landlady how it went wen I left. She narrated how after payment, she waz issued a covid 19 receipt, case 798, treated and discharged. I waz shocked 2 my teeth, I told her 2 complain 2 d authority, she said she's done dat already. I took it by mysrlf, met a nurse@d front desk, complained 2 her, she told me there's nothing she can do as not to loose her job or being queried. It also applies 2 death, anyone who dies is regarded as covid 19 death.

I weep for Naija our beloved country.

Cases like yours are fine and dozens. Anything that goes to the hospital now is covid and the so-called authorities are fully aware of this. This is the same situation in America , only it's worse over there.

Someone complained of a friend involved in a bike accident and was issued a covid receipt.

Well I don’t reply to a message like this but I just want you to know that I’m talking from experience what Ncdc came to do recently in our private hospital. I’m not owing u any explanations so keep counting the figures.

Pls lock down the entire country since Nigerians are too stubborn to obey simple instructions. Covid-19 infection rate is on d increase since the lockdown was relaxed. People must come to terms that this virus has come to stay. It will take at least 2 years for normalcy to be restored. Argue with your cerebrum.
Well, if really it has come to stay, won't it be better enough to start treating it like other diseases such as HIV, Appetites etc.? These other diseases are deadly, too, but people are leaving and dealing with it. I mean, every single individual knows what to do and what not to do, to save oneself from contracting HIV/AID. People love their lives so much, so they do the needful. Imagine it's here to stay for two years as u claimed, do we stay on lockdown for 2years?

Mind you, while locking down, there are some people with underlining manageable ailments; those ailments will start taking over them for staying off their regular (adapted to) activities. And what pops on their minds then would be: is it not better to be working and be fit enough to combat the virus - in case of eventuality - than to be off work for too long and become porous or susceptible to the virus, without the needed strength to fight back.

Digressing from the health angle, how many people in Nigeria can leave economically fine - on existing wealth - for a strengthened period of the lockdown? I bet with you, if we are to engage in romancing the figures, we will come up with nothing less than 20%, and you know what that holds in our population. Out of the 20%, the political office holders takes 12%. Then on whose side is the gain and on whose side is the loss - the government or the masses? Of course it will be the government, on all grounds. It is a non-zero sum game.

The government are really not ready to fight wholeheartedly for us, so they should not stop us from fighting for ourselves. They should stop making for, and enforcing draconian laws (or measures) on us. We love lives as much as they do but at this point, they let us be; It is our lives, so we are best to fight for it.

I mean, what do you think of an irresponsive and irresponsible government in this very hard and harsh time? Nothing productive I guess.

My candid Advice to FG is...........they should forget about the Review.

Why do you want to Lockdown again?

Any time you ease up the lockdown......there is always rush and crowd that cannot be controlled.

No measures in place to control people want here.......it is always gonna be difficult to people.

At the process the essence of social distancing murdered.

Right now the whole world is easing up gradually......Let their be continuous social awareness.........
smart man. U must be the wisest in ur family.

Learning the hard way with Covid-19 is not an individual affair. A bus driver driving dangerously if left to learn his lesson may carry not only the people in his bus to the grave but also other road users.

You can ask the Brazilians the effect of toying with Covid-19!
in this case u still have the odds and chances at least 50/50. Not like the bus driver analogy.. We even see people recover and live a normal life and that is even if they get infected in the first place and the virus grows in their system. cos many atimes people get infected on a daily bases without knowing it from all kinds of germs but their immune system fights it off that's why they don't come down. Its when the system breaks down that they become sick. So bros don't be a wimp go and fortify urself. Contact me privately for some tips

Nigerians should be made to pay for defying the social distancing rule otherwise Nigeria's cases might begin to compete or overtake western countries with high cases of the pandemic.
I thought Nigerian adults were mature enough to maintain good social distancing but the scenes at the markets and especially banks proves otherwise.
The government should not turn a blind eye to it so as to curb future defiance of covid-19 lockdown easing laws.
