1 - 3% of people who get corona virus die, which makes it 10 times deadlier than the flu which equally causes thousands of deaths annually in the US alone

socialmediaman:
Means you haven’t seen young people at the ICUs battling for their lives, with no previously known underlying health issues

socialmediaman:
Seriously, an illness that makes people really sick and could potentially cause more respiratory problems or become fatal, with no known cure or effective treatment, is deadlier than one which can be treated but equally deadly if untreated.

thorpido:
Stop this misinformation.How is malaria more deadly?How many people have died from malaria compared with coronavirus in the last 3 months?
Malaria has a cure, coronavirus does not have yet.

LLSAINT:
Malaria is a poor man disease while corona is a big man virus.
Most Nigerians form big men that is why they are scared.

BMZK:
Mr. educated if this is your definition of literate , you better ask for forgiveness. Jesus wept...

Xisnin:
Dumb comparison.
Angela Merkel couldn't have known that her doctor is positive.
But every sane person would have suspected Kyari who just came back from Egypt and Germany.

Olanipekun1:
in the midst of Coronavirus rampage in Europe he sent his chief of staff to a red zone

ok his chief of staff came back instead of him getting quarantined and isolated he ignored those rules because he taught that yes he's the government and probably Coronavirus dey look face
no see the catastrophe he just caused that would have been averted if he obeyed a simple rules

on the other hand buhari being a stack illiterate should have order a self isolation for him immediately but probably he doesn't even know what's Coronavirus is all about apart from what Kyari told him.

trust me those people he met let me tell you at least 70% is positive and unknown
this has spread among them elites because they work in clique.

the one that baffles me most is Osinbajo
as a professor you know how this virus can operate yet you didn't took precautions
well that's what you get when you mingle with illiterates that was privileged with power.

dangermouse:
Conspiracy theorist...u claimed mass death is a yearly occurance in europe? Then how come they are confused this time arround, according to u? U may try to conffuse the winter flu along with this,but it cant fly. The virus has found its way not only in nigeria and south africa, but almost all african countries with attendant deaths. Just spare us this ur theory...sane and informed people also live here!

princemillla:
Mumu ptcheeeeeew

dangermouse:
A glimpse of what is going on in italy will change ur mindset. YES corona virus is real! Wait until it comes knocking at ur door!

sassysure:
Those I share country with

CoronaVirusRelo:
Where has democracy gotten us to over the years. As it stands today, Democracy as not achieved a quarter of what the military achieved. The discipline and law and order was too notch.

What did democracy give you, religious and ethnic divisions, looting spree and outright lawlessness.

Bring both to the table with valid points. Democracy can never stand on same podium with military rule.

Some to think of it, democracy in Nigeria contest is still sub military rule. The ruling party lo let's all and influences with it once the cake goes round.

victorian:
As in ehn? I have never seen such tough and no nonsense president.
Even his determined stubborn look says it all.
Really, Nigeria needs such president.
I really admire him.
He doesn't talk much.

Just Few words and the message is driven home with great clarity.



Everybody go behave! And everyone will quietly stay indoors.

BULLIONVAN4:
the road is still under construction

ckenneths:
Something took me to Harmony estates Enugu. I was shocked to see the new roads being build by the state government quietly.

Banmeallday:
The above is actually a reason why outsiders need to come and manage the Ni...r Area.

More people have DIED under a “free” Nigeria than during 1897 to 1960.

There were no stupid Meg CHURCHES, aristo girls, Useless music and chicken dance, going abroad to give birth, and LEADERS stealing 30%....

Consider ridding the world of that slave name and mindset called Nigeria.....

NdiaraIGBO:
Stop watching CNN! Sky news and BBC!

You DONT have a clue how the world works!

Other people should come and rule you? Dundy!

Bobbyfreshh:
Oga fear God nah....so u mean to tell me if Nigeria is still under colonial rule things like ,power issues ,infrastructure won't be 100 times better than now

The white man might steal but development is certain

OlujobaSamuel:
My issue is not even the illegality of the nonsense idea you just expressed but your lack of understanding of a failed state.
Nigeria is by no means a failed state as far as democracy is concerned.
No administration is sitting beyond its legitimate term irrespective political scheming, it means the people are still in control of who rule them and they are given the chance to change them through the ballot when the opportunity presents itself. That alone erases every shortcomings of the nation that might portray it as a failed state

RuudVanNisteroy:
The United Nations will appoint Nigerians Administrators from diaspora to manage this failed state. Nigeria's population will double to 400 million in the next 30 years.

RuudVanNisteroy:
The United Nations should have a mandate to take over failed states like Nigeria. And appoint administrators to take over governance at Federal,State and Local government level. Nigeria has failed in all indices in it's responsibility to it citizens in the provision of electricity,security,portable water,sanitation,social security safety net, since 1960.
The only people benefiting from Nigeria are the fantastically corrupt politicians who have looted $600 billion dollars since 1960. They are the only ones that have security in this failed contraption and enjoy any kind of benefits.

djon78:
Actually the Asians come with there own money. So they can easily set up businesses and investments here. They have access to funds from home country.

But majority of Nigerians lack even basic finance or adequate funding, so they are already disadvantaged.

BeLookingIDIOT:
The DNA test results “did not support their claim to be descendants of the ancient people of Israel… [but] we consider them our brothers through our common faith in the Messiah Yeshua."


They still want to be Jews by force.
Faith in what Messiah,do Jews believe Jesus

Firstnebo:
I am one of the few people in the world who have very little panic. My low panic mode is as a result of realising that human government is not the answer, and that what's happening on the world stage is a clear indication that God's government where Jesus will be the ruler of the whole United earth is imminent.

That being said, it cannot be overlooked that what is predicted to happen to our already battered economy because of the current oil price war and Chinese CoronaVirus is causing major turbulence to the quality of life for a common Nigerian (I praise those in small villages who eat directly what they cultivated. God's blessings is clearly on them)

What's the point of this writing? The point is that our government is not upto the task, they do not care. The worst still, they do not even have any workable data and predictive numbers of what might occur. They do not know how to, nor care about doing simulations and finding ways to work around the possibilities.

To worsen the situation, the world bodies, international institutions, and governments do not give a damn. All the organised world bodies posing to care for Africa are actually after money, spewing all kinds of propaganda to keep the chaos and turbulence going so that they can keep winning funds.

So what's my proposal? (There's something I would have said here, but I won't to avoid paying to the panic coffers). That being said, the best thing for our government to do at this moment, (since it has been proved beyond doubt that since independence they can't fix electric power, transportation, health, education, security, and jobs. They just can't. In fact in all of the above they have earned less than F9), is to recuse themselves and sell this nation to USA. Not lease o, Sell, total handover.

I did not say sell to China. While China can be one of the best to lift this nation out of decline, they do have a major problem with freedom.

Donald Trump had wanted to buy an island in Europe, let him come and buy Nigeria. More lucrative than Greenland. And more meaningful.

Side note: you may be wondering why I emboldened the word "Chinese" from the phrase "Chinese CoronaVirus". The reason is that there's an ongoing campaign by China sponsored organisations to stop labelling the virus 'China virus' or 'Wuhan virus'. But they were very happy to call it "Lassa fever", "West Nile virus", "Ebola virus". (In fact at a point they would just call it "Ebola!" Imagine this people). Now they don't want it to be recorded in the history books that, like many substandard products, the "Wuhan" is Made in China . Give me a break!

MusaChukwudi:
Shut up! Are you Yoruba? If not shut up!

Go and hail your village and leave Lagos alone!

tevinsolt:
"Overrated lagos" is his opinion, just like you have yours.
And I personally think his opinion best describe the reality of Lagos.

You attacked his opinion by calling out his father in an impolite manner, just like a typical nairaland tribalist would but you want to cure Tribalism on Nairaland?
You might want to take the speck out of your own eye first.
