Because the foreign leaders that our leaders normally copy ideas from clearly don’t know what they are doing, our leaders have been forced to come up with their own ideas, and this is the result. I don’t like it. *UPDATED*

Hyinkar97:
These mods and supermods or whatever they call themselves might be somewhere accusing Buhari of tyranny and abuse of power. Would have cursed the governors of their states for abuse of power. Probably had a lecturer they didn't like in school cause he or she mistreated students. Now they are here doing the same shit.

Why would you delete a thread of over 7000 pages without stating any reason why you did so? A thread that serves as a source of information for some of us here. A thread where we all share information and experiences. A thread that has brought strangers together to solve issues. Yet you deleted it just cause you can?

Bleep you Dragnet. Bleep you Seun. Bleep Nairaland.

Worst y'all can do after you see this post is ban me. Bleep you all once again!

Which thread is this?

No mask

anwarajnr:
They were reported to have followed the rules yet... What other options do they have than stop their religious gatherings? I hope we'll certainly get over this pandemic someday.

The rules the world was following at the beginning of the crisis were wrong. They didn’t recommend face-masks, etc because of the WHO’s reckless disinformation.

What product do you use for the hair?

I don’t understand why we are under more restrictions than Lagos State.

Kobojunkie:
Here's hoping the opening of house of worships in the US will not cause a resurgence of COVID-19 cases in the U.S.

If they follow the guidelines for face-masks and spacing Trump’s gamble will pay off. But in the US the people who hate the lockdown also hate following safety rules, so odds are that this will be a disaster.

Davash222:
Just like that? There should be punishment for such laxity.

if it happens again...

The mod said it was a mistake.

Thanks for this thread, dingbang. Can we have a video showing the entire process?

We must absolutely have testing labs not only in every state but in every major city or town, so that tests can be conducted very quickly and the infected identified and isolated before they start spreading the disease to other people (several days before they start showing symptoms). Speed is a force multiplier for testing. If two countries are test the same number of people per day, the one with faster testing will have better results. Countries need to keep increasing their testing capacity as fast as they can, using all the money that they have, until it gets to the level where the number of new cases start to drop. Whatever it costs, it is worth it.

How do they select which people will receive the food?

Shocked, but let'e watch out for Q2.

taylor88:
None of the above bro but just came back from lab now the malaria is still (++) I’m confused I wonder what I’ve been treating, since it’s still indicates malaria there do I still need all the test u mentioned above

The strain of malaria you have may be resistant to the drug you are using. So they should prescribe a different drug for you, I guess. Cheers.

A 21% reduction in Lagos state's budget seems very optimistic to me. Where will the money come from? Many of the jobs that have been lost are gone for good. Many of the businesses that have closed are gone for good. Many of those that reopen will end the year with losses. Entire industries have been destroyed by harsh measures. The social distancing rules that we are now enforcing, though infinitely better than the lockdown, are not cost-free either. Transport costs will at least double, etc. All these things will reduce the Lagos State government's revenue.

aminulive:
As part of efforts to curb the Coronavirus pandemic across the world, the World Health Organisation (WHO) recommended the use of face masks.

Can you point us to where the World Health Organization officially recommended the use of face-masks? It would be very helpful, thanks.

Lockdowns and the stress of dealing with COVID-19 are driving people mad.

Cogent:
Haba Seun, this is very hurtful. I have been waiting 2 days for feedback.

I have seen you viewing the thread but you didn't reply, why ask for details of my case then proceed to not reply me?

Does this mean there is nobody we can report to if the mods are being oppressive?

have you answered my questions yet? I can’t see my answers.

I really appreciate your ideas and suggestions. They are very helpful.

alezzy13:
People are sacrificing literally 24/7 to see how they can improve the lives of others, yet some incurably demonized agents have busied themselves on maligning the efforts of WHO and likes.

The WHO leadership lied to people and they died. They advised against banning travel from China. They convinced people not to wear face-masks. Till date, they have not completely reversed their position. The volunteers and staff of WHO are good, hard-working people, but just like America and UK, something is wrong with their leadership; this has led to catastrophic economic outcomes for the world. Hence, the hostility.

Love4God:
Greedy people.
They prefer their economy to the lives of their citizens.
If they had not gone into recession they would not have taken such decision to put the lives of their citizens at risk.
They would have seeked help from world bank and other sister european countries.

**** Germany handled the crisis way better than most other countries. You need to look at their stats.

Cogent:
Seun I am asking because my friend got banned for 7 months for a single offence which seems grossly unfair to me so I came to help her appeal her case. Thanks

Which friend, which offense, and which moderator?

Gregorian2020:
They were the ones that ask for it and they got what they wished for. At least their consent was ask for and they voted for it. So enjoy what you ask for ogun citizens

I think the gov already made his decision. The onine poll was a farce and obviously many people who are not in Ogun State voted in the poll.

Orestino:
On May 24, our dear governor will extend it with another one week and that's final. By June 1, we can head out

What does he think he is achieving by doing this? He's just creating a re-election problem for himself as far as I can tell. Just aggravating voters.

I’m tired of this.

I want to open up every sector of the economy, but I feel that religious gatherings, etc. should be the last part of the economy to be opened up because the risk/benefit ratio is so high. I hope the Ebonyi churches and mosques follow the guidelines and that they are effective enough.

andrewtosin:
but sometimes one may unintentionally touches his/her eyes

Two things can help: 1, having hand sanitizer in your pocket so you can use it immediately after touching anything that may be contaminated. 2, wearing shades, goggles or glasses, along with your face-mask, to block you when you try to touch your eyes.

CodeTemplar:
I agree with virtually all of your stance regarding how to handle this covid-19 but you see the bold part up there is a little bit illogical. This Nigerians you say we have, aren't really ours. That devilish concept of treating talented/skillful folks. ..... typing.

I have changed the wording. The original wording wasn’t intended to be malicious. So, just like India, we are lucky to have highly skilled Nigerians working in labs all over the world. We should ask for their help and pay them very well if they choose to return to Nigeria in this difficult time and help us to make a vaccine.

Gepheral:
The koko is to avoid contacts with the air, nose, ear once one comes in contact with cash... Then later use hand sanitizer to wash off. God help us

Simple. To generalize this, if you touch any object that could have been touched or sneezed on by other people, avoid rubbing your eyes, picking your nose, etc before you wash your hands.

andrewtosin:
nawah oh... And I think of going out from Monday by using these taxis, bikes and buses.. May God help us and deliver us from this scourge.

So even with the face masks and hand sanitizer you were still infected?

He didnt say anything about face-masks, as far as I can tell.

I am very happy for you. Wish you provided more evidence, though.

osesology:
Not quite sure. I normally take a cab to and from the office and sometimes l take a bus, just to economize. I always follow safety guidelines. I always have a hand sanitizer with me. But my only suspect is the buses l take from time to time.

This is interesting. Did you wear face-masks when you were in the buses?
