Guys, hope Witcher is going to be worth it?

I started with the first Episode last night. Didn't feel it, even though I couldn't finish that episode before sleeping off.

Yes, I was already feeling sleepy before started watching. But naturally, intriguing movies should force you to wanna watch on, even in the face of sleep.

Like seriously guys, I can't seem to understand the hype on this Money Heist. I managed to finish just one episode in season 1, and I was like wtf!

To even imagine it's a series?! Smh

WesleyPepper:
At this rate , 15milliion Nigerians would be infected . Cuz that's about 7.5% at that rate .
Statistics don't always tell the full story

We can only hope so, because it's really worrying.

Just 2,000 and we have 150+ confirmed cases?

Roll out your calculators and do the math

A simple video of these PPEs would have sufficed

That some nurses, no matter how few, who're supposed to be professionals, are now suddenly apprehensive, still points to some deep underlying issues, no matter how you look at it.

NaijaRoyalty:
Insha Allah, Buhari will be the last APC member that will rule this country .

You most be mistaken if you think the problems bedeviling this country has got anything to do with the party in power.

Good to read the points you raised @Passingshot. Now, I can only attempt to, based on those points raised alone, make you understand how we've only been fooling ourselves.



Your first point was on how body temperature was being checked at the airports, before our first recorded case.

Please, kindly school me on how effective temperature check is, in detecting a possible corona virus carrier. While you're at it, kindly explain again how the index case got through the check at the airport.

What's the incubation period of this virus? What are the chances an asymptomatic carrier would be detected by merely temperature check?

As an alternative to the temperature check, wouldn't it have been wise if we had subjected those coming from other countries, especially from the flash points, to some sort of self isolation and monitoring, as it's the current practice? Why not just temperature check?



On your second point, you'll have to understand that we can not ignore the fact that the more test we carry out, the higher the confirmed cased could rise (God forbid). The more confirmed cases we record, the more it will stretch our ill-equiped isolation units and medical centers. The more pressure we put on the system, the higher the likelihood of having more casualties (again, God forbid).

Can you in all honesty, boldly say that we presently have the capacity to deal with the virus if the numbers of confirmed cases gets anywhere close to the figures of the countries you mentioned?

It's well known that the best way to beat Covid-19 is by carrying out massive testing of residents. How many testing centers do we have in the country currently? What's the cost of setting up one? Why couldn't we set up as many as possible before our index case? Proactive?

Even now, how many more centers are we planning on getting ready? What's going to be their capacity, by the time it becomes ready?


The last point you raised, again, inadequate testing facilities, like I pointed out above, could be responsible for it. Otherwise, why the steady increase in numbers of confirmed case since we relatively stepped up testing?


Lastly, I can only appeal to everyone that irrespective of our partisan interests, we should all rise up and speak up so as to make the people in authority to realize why government was created in the first place.

Let's stop celebrating mediocrity, for as it were, if the numbers doesn't drop soon enough, we may not afford the "luxury" of having a discourse as this.

Hey, guys, does data sharing work on MTN, same way it does on GLO?

idealogical:
For any fever or any negative temp reading to be detected, you fist have to be symptomatic, the Italian man was had no symptoms.

Exactly my point -- temperature check isn't an effective measure against the Covid-19

The last point you raised, again, slow testing facilities, like I pointed out above, could be responsible for it. Otherwise, why the steady increase in numbers of confirmed case?

Perfectnumber6:
I wanted to reply you with some very unprintable words but i think you are still a child so peace.

Unfortunately, there's nothing you can say to change their views and mindsets. That's one of the reasons I fear we may not yet witness Uhuru.

We celebrate mediocrity so much in Nigeria. This is exactly one of the leverages the political class have over us.

SMH... Should have washed the brains and conscience instead

OP don't just drive round GRA and environs and draw your conclusion.

I'm based in PH, too. Kindly drive to some remote parts of the city and get yourself a good meal.

Nwodosis:
Prof, if you want to how ineffective these your grammars are, disobey the lockdown order and come out!

Most times, when people lack the needed mental prowess to comprehend and articulate a rational response to a public discourse, they resort to making fallacious arguments.

Petyprincess:
Not really
So what message you talking about?

I actually did send a mail. But it's cool, you don't have to reply if you don't feel like doing so

Petyprincess:
What message you talking about? I'm actually replying you because you helped me in past
So what do u want exactly?

Really? You feel obliged to replying because of that?

You need to understand that not every serious buyer would be disposed to a WhatsApp chat, without having idea of the price.

Happy sales all the same.

@Petyprincess don't tell me you didn't see my message

To imagine it's same bank I keep my major monies, no atm, just the app

Looks like an inside job, otherwise, why weren't there debit alerts?

OP, thanks for the heads-up. I hope you don't let this slide

This is scary

Petyprincess:
Sure

Quit playing joor. I'm serious

Petyprincess:
Yes it can burn you to ashes

Lolz

Can I have a closer look? I need as much burns as possible. The boredom is becoming too cold

Every state seems to be copying one another in shutting down their borders, without any corresponding palliatives for the citizens.

Petyprincess:
I have o,it had a virus nd double all my pictures videos so i took it out nd insert into my phone again that's how everything on my phone deleted i almost cried I don discard the memory card off sha

That's terrible.

Are your pictures usually that hot?

Petyprincess:
When it first started i was enjoying it bt now I'm bored seriously! Im nw using thrice the data i was using,eating four times a day,video calling,dancing,making tiktok videos,calling friends for uneccessary conversations etc
I hope i can add more 10kg b4 this get over

Hi. Hope you haven't had troubles recently with your memory stick?

Gentlemen and ladies, gently sit back and watch as the story unfolds. Another "greatresearcher" is here

rusher14:
Great stuff.

Would have been nice if you had invested these sums in various health centres across the length and breath of this nation.

We don't always need to wait for s crisis to act.

How do you donate to the health sector, when the monies budgeted for same by the government, for donkey years, have all gone down the drain?

RisenPhoenix:
If you are not sick it is better not to wear a face mask. Findings have shown that people who wear face masks tend to touch their faces more often (by constantly adjusting the mask) than those who don't wear it, and therefore have a higher risk of carrying viruses to their faces. The face mask should be used only by those who are exhibiting the symptoms so they minimize spreading the virus to others and those who are not symptomatic, but are caring directly for patients.

WHO guidelines on mask use;

https://www.who.int/emergencies/diseases/novel-coronavirus-2019/advice-for-public/when-and-how-to-use-masks

So stop wasting your money, people.

God bless you for this.

I guess it's a bandwagon approach. What's the need wearing a face mask, if other parts of our face are left exposed?

Avoid touching your face, but if you must, be sure to wash your hands.

tomju:
You haven't even seen the 10k per household you are complaining. How will each household be identified? No database. What about single unmarried adults? Are they households? What about the unbanked? Without BVN? What modalities will be used for the sharing? It's just impossible to share money publicly in Nigeria.

As much as I understood your points, I was disappointed that you didn't suggest an alternative.

We criticize a whole lot in Nigeria. Balance your criticisms by proffering alternative solutions.

CokeBar:
You should call your account officer or go to the bank or reinstall the app and maybe try logging in with fingerprint.

For me, downtimes are rare. I use it for all my transactions, although, it's always healthy to have other alternatives.

There was this period that I'd call them almost every Monday, because of one pending transaction or another. I stopped calling when I noticed the pattern.

I would have abandoned the account completely, but for my salaries.

CokeBar:
Kindly list out what makes them inefficient...

I hardly have access to my account via their mobile app, especially from Fridays till Sunday. When I do get access, 99% of the time, transactions doesn't go through.
