Nami should learn to see the good in people and speak well about them, especially his predecessors.

For superintending over a declining revenue generation since 2015 ?

Perhaps they deliberately overhyped him after all, he handed over revenue

•Reaction to ‘The North has already destroyed itself (2)’

By Sanusi Maiwada

I do not support President Buhari’s government policy of political exclusion. It is grossly unfair to treat the South-East of Nigeria as an outcast. It would have been a game changer if the President had embraced the region like others despite not voting for him in 2015. The opposition against his re-election from the region in 2019 would not have been as fierce. But with his insensitive attitude to the region, the people are right to continue to oppose him. I sincerely hope that a redress will be made to bring everyone on board. It is not too late.

I don't think this part is truly from the depth of the writer's heart.

The North is known for divide and rule. They know how to dribble Igbos and Yoruba's.
Each time they are bashing the South East (for instance) they wittingly draw the South West closer and vice versa.

Today, this Hausa Fulani writer is bashing the Yorubas . Suddenly, he feels sympathy for the manner Buhari
is treating Igbos. Tomorrow the reverse will be the case.

Biafrarep:
It is quite obvious that the old figure head parading as our president is either an impostor or or senile Buhari.

How can every minister, governor, adviser, diplomat or legislator be giving ultimatums and acting like there is no authority above them.

Nigerians should open their eyes and reason logically. Since Abba Kyari became sick, no one knows where he is or his situation all of a sudden, Buhari started making cameo appearances. But if you are discerning enough, you would see that his smiles and the few times he spoke are the sort you will observe from one who is totally detached from what is happening around him.

Now, just look at the condescending way the Chadian president is reffering to Nigeria and its leadership and army. He is so confident in talking down on Nigeria because he knows there is no Central leader and he always gets away with it without any counter action from Aso rock.
Very good observation

Chad President, Idriss Déby has urged Chadian troops not to allow Nigerian soldiers free captured weapons or Boko Haram terrorists.

Déby in a viral video, warned that if they allow Nigerian troops to release the captured Boko Haram members, they will return to Chad and hurt them.

According to him, 90 percent of Boko Haram terrorist have been destroyed and the other 10 percent escaped to Niger and Nigeria.

He was quoted as saying, “This place will be our zone until Nigeria sends its soldiers. Stay with them for about a month. Do not let them free captured weapons or any Boko Haram terrorists, they will return to Chad and this will just hurt us.

“So let them just understand. We are not leaving the situation like this. In the next few days, I will speak with the President of Niger. You guys destroyed at least 90 percent of Boko Haram. That I confirm and can tell the world that 90 percent of Boko Haram is destroyed.

“The 10 percent that are left are running everywhere. Some have drowned and some ran to Niger, some to Nigeria but they will never come to Chad again. Chad is no place for Boko Haram.”


Recall that Deby had last month led his country’s troop to capture Boko Haram arms store in Sambisa.

The Chadian troops had freed Nigerian soldiers formerly in the sect’s captivity.

They also destroyed Boko Haram bases, killed several insurgents and recovered hundreds of weapons.

Only 300 positive cases and there are 7 deaths already.

PoliticsRe: Peter Obi: It Is Wrong To Relax Lockdown For Religious Reasons by Staro: 11:11am On Apr 11, 2020
IkeOnyia:
Peter Obi is really a demented imbeciile. He is always speaking from both side of his mouth due to mental depravity.


This is an interview he granted The Punch late last month condemning the lockdown.


Anthony Okafor
A former Governor of Anambra State , Mr Peter Obi , has warned against locking down the country over coronavirus scare, without alternative arrangements to cushion the effects of such action on the masses .
He said whilst all possible measures should be deployed to stop the spread of COVID- 19 , appropriate measures should be put in place to mitigate the suffering of the vulnerable in society .
In a statement by his Media Adviser, Valentine Obienyem, Obi , who was the vice presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party in the 2019 election, said markets and other business ventures should not be closed to further impoverish the poor.
He said , ” There are several millions of our populace who are unemployed . Their means of livelihood depends on daily income which the present situation will definitely worsen . ”
He noted that in locking down the country, such vulnerable people should be factored into government plans , as was the case in other countries , by putting measures in place to cushion the effects of the lockdown on them.
Obi , who expressed gratitude for the efforts of some political leaders , captains of industry and corporate bodies , urged the Federal Government to do more to mitigate the situation, especially for poor Nigerians , as being witnessed in other climes.
He added , “ It would be counter -productive to keep only the elite in mind when taking such far - reaching decisions as closing down markets without having some cushioning measures for the traders . ”
He enjoined politicians , especially legislators , to go back to their constituencies to be with their people at a time like this .
“This is the time to be with your people in your various constituencies , ” Obi said .
He said it did not make any sense for politicians to be observing the stay - at -home in various places outside their constituencies at this trying time , instead of being with their constituents to help their people to find solutions to their problems and challenges .
Obi said that by being in their constituencies to monitor the situation, the elected leaders will be in a position not only to support their people in time of need , but to also properly advise government on how to address the fallouts of government policies.
He called on leaders of all segments of society to make sacrifices and show commitment at this critical period in the country’ s history .

https://punchng.com/peter-obi-kicks-over-coronavirus-lockdown/

This is the unstable idiot who wanted to become our vice president.
Oga, are you too daft to even read and understand what you yourself posted?
Or you feel it a duty to criticise Obi (rightly or wrongly) because he's on another political divide ?

Please, read your own post again, this time do it slowly so you understand the point Obi was making.

I know most of you ZOMBIE Buhari followers are as dumb and brainless as the man himself

HealthFear Of Death Ran Wild In My Mind – COVID-19 Survivor by Staro(op): 10:04am On Apr 11, 2020
Oluwaseun Osowobi, the Executive Director of Stand to End Rape Initiative, is one of the survivors of COVID-19. Osowobi, who stayed in a Lagos State isolation centre for two weeks before testing negative, talks about how she came down with the virus, her stay in the isolation ward, her experience with medics and others with SIMON UTEBOR

1) You are a survivor of the deadly COVID-19, how did you come down with the virus?

I was in the United Kingdom for couple of activities and I must have contracted it during one of the events, during transportation or from someone I was in close contact with. It is very difficult to tell. But I contracted it in the UK; that is how I came down with the virus.

2) How did you know you had it?

I didn’t know until I got tested. I had to get tested to know that I had it.

3) What symptoms did you have that made you go for testing?


I had symptoms like fever, cough, dizziness, loss of appetite, and a couple of others. I knew that those were symptoms for COVID-19 but I wasn’t too sure and I needed to get tested to know if I was down with the virus or not, so I went for the testing. I was tested here in Nigeria.

4) From your experience in isolation centre, what do you think should or can be improved on by the government, medical teams and others involved in the management of patients?

I think one thing that can definitely be improved upon is communication between the management team and patients because we were kept in the dark about our results. Tests were done almost every two days but we were not being carried along regarding the results – if we were getting better or getting worse. People were very anxious to know what their situation was. I think sharing information with the people involved in the situation is itself actually very good because it will encourage them to fight harder and if the situation is not getting better, they can know how to fight or be encouraged to want to fight the virus. I think that is one thing that could be improved upon by the Ministry of Health and the entire health care system. Communication is very helpful, especially for the mental
health of the patient at that time. Patients want to know what is going on and that is important.

5) What was your psychology like when it was confirmed that you were positive?

The first thing that came to mind was: ‘Am I going to die?’ I was scared and worried. I was hopeful, but seriously filled with fear because looking at the data and statistics of those who had died from the virus, it wouldn’t take long to put two and two together and begin to question one’s own capability to pull through the experience. So, I was a bit concerned and worried about if the Ministry of Health was ready and able to handle the situation. I had so many thoughts running through my mind on our readiness to handle such cases – if we were ready to handle such cases or if my case was going to be like that of a guinea pig to carry out a test. I just had a lot going through my mind at that time.

6)Around the time you were in the isolation centre, a video of a man whose daughter was in an isolation centre in the country went viral. He said she was not being attended to by health workers or even fed. Did you experience selective treatment or suffer stigma in the hands of health workers?


I will not be able to speak about that because I was in a ward and my knowledge of what was going on in other parts was limited. But I can speak for my own ward: we were well fed and taken care of. Were there lapses? Of course, they were, because every system was also learning through its own. So, I won’t be able to speak about the man’s situation because I don’t know the isolation centre his daughter was taken to. I am not aware of the situation because at that time, no one was checking to know what was happening outside one’s ward. For instance, everybody in my ward was just fighting to test negative and beat the virus. So it is difficult for me to say that the treatment was selective because I didn’t experience that and I did not see it in my ward.

7) What about stigma?

I won’t call it stigmatisation, I will call it unfair treatment because the way I was received did not show care or support and understanding. I felt very bad when I was taken to the isolation centre and how the health care workers received me. I really can’t speak for anyone; I can only speak based on my experience. Some might have experienced stigmatisation, I really can’t tell, but from my own experience, there were times when nurses would come and yell at you, “Wear your mask, wear your mask.”

I understand that they were also trying to protect themselves so that they would not contract the virus. I will not call it stigmatisation; maybe it was not the best approach or the best way to pass their messages across sometimes but I wouldn’t say it was outright stigmatisation.

cool How did the health workers treat you?

It was good. As I said, there were lapses at the beginning but it was good in the long run. The majority of them cared for me and were supportive, but you know, nobody is perfect. It was good to the best of my knowledge.

9) Did you experience any kind of unfair treatment that can dissuade people from wanting to go to the isolation centre?


Again, I won’t be able to speak for anyone else, because I wouldn’t know. I will only be able to speak about my own experience and what I saw so that I won’t give an inaccurate account of the situation outside of my knowledge. I wouldn’t say their attitude would dissuade anyone because at the end of the day, your health is the most important thing. The attitude of the health care workers may not be the best in someone’s judgment book but the important thing is for people to come forward to get help. That is the most important thing right now; the attitude of the health care workers is quite different from helping people who come forward. But I think the conversation should actually be for people to come forward regardless of the situation.

10) How long did you stay at the isolation centre before you were given a clean bill of health?

I was there for two weeks.

11) Did the doctors appear well trained to handle COVID-19?


I am not a doctor so I do not think I can answer the question of whether they are well trained to handle the situation. I don’t know what a doctor that is well trained to handle COVID-19 should look like. It is a bit difficult to answer that. But for my situation, I have no doubt that they are well trained because through them, I got well and healed.

12) There are conspiracy theorists who say COVID-19 has created the fear needed for everyone to accept vaccines that will be encoded to fulfil the coming of the Antichrist as predicted in the Book of Revelations in the Bible, what do you think about that?


I have no comment. I just know that we have a virus that is killing people, causing so much damage and we all need to come together to stop it.

13) Some people also say coronavirus is a scam, while some others say the symptoms associated with it are caused by 5G technology and not the coronavirus, what do you think about that?

Well, I am not familiar with (any) 5G technology causing coronavirus, I don’t have data to back that up. I haven’t done any research in that regard and I don’t have any facts regarding that. So, I won’t say anything about that. But for those who say that COVID-19 does not exist, well I had the experience and I have narrated my story.

14) Given the donations from different organisations and individuals, would you say those materials or funds helped in facilitating your treatment in any way?

I was isolated so I didn’t have as much information as I should or would have intended to have. All I can say is that the Lagos State Government helped me and others in my ward to survive by giving us adequate care and services. It may not have been perfect as I said earlier but it was enough to help us get better. That is what I can say in that regard.

15) Did they collect money from you for treatment?

They did not collect a dime from me. It was absolutely free.
