JuIiusmalema:
they should go and sit down, they're not taking any useless action.

dislike them or hate them, they can always issue directives for closure and there's nothing anybody can do about it

JuIiusmalema:
especially in UNIBEN.
Two academic sessions in a year, 4 semesters in 12 months.
May God help us

that's just asking for nuc and ptf to take action .

tooth4tooth:
Most of the nurses in our general hospitals lack professional ethics Their negligence and the manner they yell at patients is second to none. The victims of their constant bully understand better. They act as if they are doing the job for free.

Our general hospitals need total overhauling. Most of those canker worms called nurses should be fired.

isn't it a private hospital?

duduade:
Most schools including universities are moving into virtual learning.

many students are opposing that . I would too sha . Students are somehow part of the problem cos they aren't asking the right questions, just 'em tired of home' .

alezzy13:
Ignorance again. Maintain which lead?

Are you following the global figures at all?

And you really going to compare the mortality of cancer, diabetes, epilepsy with covid??

Pls don't spread false info.

sad thing is they're always on front page

Ddokie:
And they are reopening schools. Are these people OK?



You can not beat your chest and say the lockdown didn't help.

Do you know what the level of spread would have been if there was never a lock-down?

Is the rising case of infection and death not because we are operating business as usual?

Corona no dey kill plenty people, but nobody sabi who e go kill.

Activities should be limited to the barest necessities. Offices should run shifts same as markets. Students should stay at home. If they lose one session, e no go kill them. Afterall the average Nigerian graduate stays at home for upwards of 3 years before he gets a job so what is the rush for.

Since the vaccine would be readily available within the next 6 to 12 months, things can be slowed down in anticipation for such a time when most people especially the most vulnerable would have gotten the vaccine.

Life no get duplicate.

lockdown didn't really help. We never really had a lockdown, just closed down places our hands could get to. We were barely testing people during that period, filled with directionless policies and full of copy and paste that's still going on now. If we had used the lockdown to increase our capacity × 10 for testing, isolating and treating like some countries did then maybe one would say it was useful but nah as usual Nigeria . A handful of states still didn't have testing facilities, the so called lockdown was partly political with it's legality even questioned. The legality of the lockdown just became muddled with inconsistencies and then it just became clear we didn't know what we were doing. Just reading out what special advisers write down . Lagos could use a proper lockdown rn, but they probably know it's not needed for few reasons and the fact that we just aren't up to the task.

Arrowss:
I wonder what school has done to you that you wants just schools to be closed, I wonder.

well last time I checked naija students said school na scam . So I wonder the same, what has school done for them that want to reopened .

Farid24224:
Kano has over 8 million people, but the cases there ain't like that of Lagos, why??

nobody knows .

By now there should be standard treatment centres in every LG in Lagos. But they were preparing for second wave another way I guess . Still don't know what to do with this data .

Jorge91:
The only way schools can resume and obey social distancing is level by level 500 and 400 resume first, run lectures and exam Go home. 300 and 200 follows, 100 later.

ABU is trying something like this but it's going to fall flat .

So many hurdles. I see some reopening and shutting down again. Some are lying to themselves that they're ready. Some are planning full scale resumption . Some are yet to prove ASUU & other stakeholders wrong on reopening. Some might have plans in place but it's going to be flouted as par Nigeria. Then add ASUU, NASU . So who knows, we'll see .

starbuck:
Nope
More like gossiping to their followers so they can stalk you

oh wow, like a retweet button . It makes a lot of sense now . So now what is the function of the like button .

starbuck:
Biko, for the last time

What’s the function of NL SHARE button

to share your post to your followers I think

realstars:
As I use to say, Lagos Is the key to this day to day life scores of covid~19 somthing.
when lagos increas their volume, the nomber goes up, when they reduce, the number goes down.
i think it's time to lorkdown some States to safe others.

stay safe to be safe my people.

maybe that's cos they're the epicenter

Johnnyrio:
"Alice is my first lady".

Will never forget this movie.

you just made my mind flash. Mama Gee was in it right? I'm trying to recall who played Alice .

Modified: I just remembered in the movie she was charmed all along. And oh she was a second wife . The husband ran away with the first and the children .

kayuseful:
No one is saying abolish nysc
But must there be 21day camping?

We can understand schools being reopened. Those kids have been at home for a full session now. But Nysc?
What benefit has it done to the youths that makes it more important than being safe from a pandemic

on the part of some corp members, it's for the experience and other stuff that go down in camps . On the part of Government, I don't get . Cos I bet it's not going to be a bubble thing like how some events are holding so what's the point . The PTF keeps showing how they're just a press task force .

Advice - noun
Advise - verb. To give advice

Black052:
getting away with what is it people that are not testing that will report death i laff in kogii

their health workers? At least they should be in serious trouble , testing will hide the number of cases and deaths yes but it won't hide people getting sick or hospital admissions. Also no referrals to other states? Nah this is beyond not testing.

marvin906:
Kogi was never really testing

but it seems they're getting away with it . How . Low testing still standing, how are some states getting away with covid . We're never serious about anything in this country .

Cutezt:
Maybe you haven't, I have seen countless, one of my aunts works at a hospital, the HIV patients I encounter there are too real to doubt the existence of HIV, don't get it twisted, coronavirus is real, but the testing and churning out figures is what I totally don't understand.

I was in Jos for a month late last year and even my aunt that works at the hospital does not understand how the numbers come up, and before you say anything, the hospital is a massive hospital, one of the biggest in the whole state.

i agree that our data is so warped. I'm sure they're loads of other people that have also encountered lots of covid patients. All in all people should try and stay safe .

Cutezt:
So I've been to the 2 Hotspots of the virus in this country, being a Lagosians who spends almost all year in Lagos, and a Plateau indegine who spends dall of his holidays in Jos, yet, I am yet to see someone being tested or even rumors of someone who was tested.

I am not doubting the existence of coronavirus in Nigeria, but i don't know how they come up with this number on a daily.

Only God will help us las las.

I haven't seen someone with HIV or rumoured to have HIV. Now please someone shouldn't equate coro and HIV . It's just an example .

alizma:
Yahaya Bello signed special agreement with God on this.

it's surprising and laughable at the same time .

Alexaonfleek:
Shit!
I think this is the highest cases recorded so far

exactly my reaction when I first saw it. I don't know what they're planning but I think Lagos needs all the medical manpower it can get .

A lot of U-turns about to be announced . Like I've asked before plateau just records high numbers and that's it . Or are they all mild? .

KillerBeauty:
But why should schools remain closed while every other sector of the economy is open. Even US with their high cases and death, the first thing they did last year after the lockdown was open schools. And this is a country where kids can learn virtually oh. Unlike in Nigeria.

some reopened September/october only to close down again. While the ones that didn't reopen continued with e-learning. Harvard and Cambridge? even said no physical class till early this year but now they might have to extend that.

Youngzero2:
Can't the control of the lecture halls opening and closure be handled by anybody.Should that be a problem?

Apparently not . Everybody is contributing something. I mean they need to have some form of leverage on the government.

luminouz:
I don't get you!


Is AAU included?

I don't know about that but if they're to close higher institutions it would be AAU not UNIBEN.

Flier:
The federal government should not allow this to happen
They should provide an enabling environment for student to avoid covid rather than this nonsense,private universities are in school without any cases of covid

weren't private schools praised for online learning and exams last year . And so far none has resumed .

luminouz:
Higher institutions included

All I see are primary and secondary Schools

AAU if included

Youngzero2:
I have been reading through the threats of these unions(nasu and ssanu) to ground down the universities if the federal government fails to meet their demands.
My question is, can their strike affect resumption?who are the members of ssanu?.
Please I need answers to these.Thanks

I think if both are involved then yes it will affect resumption cos NASU can start shutting classrooms. So many hurdles

Lamasta:
Wahala for students way no get covid-19

why? Immunity?

MyOpinion1:
I don't know why the government is putting the life of everyone at risk because of the ignorant of some few..
Why returning the children to school amidst the high risk of the second wave...
I understand, the govt bowed to pressure because of the demand of people that further lockdown might cripple the economy but then they should have kept the children indoor because they are more vulnerable..
The children are the future, they should be kept safe..

i think at this point it should be about balance. The issue is some schools are lying to themselves about being prepared, aren't planning serious protocols and people(teachers and students) can't help but not comply with them . I hope we don't start seeing mass shutdowns of tertiary institutions but I don't see how that's likely not to happen .
