There is a lot of false information around. These are the facts.

� People of all ages CAN be infected by the coronavirus. Older people, and people with pre-existing medical conditions (such as asthma, diabetes, heart disease) appear to be more vulnerable to becoming severely ill with the virus.

❄️ Cold weather and snow CANNOT kill the coronavirus.

☀️ The coronavirus CAN be transmitted in areas with hot and humid climates

� The coronavirus CANNOT be transmitted through mosquito bites.

� There is NO evidence that companion animals/pets such as dogs or cats can transmit the coronavirus.

� Taking a hot bath DOES NOT prevent the coronavirus

� Hand dryers are NOT effective in killing the coronavirus

� Ultraviolet light SHOULD NOT be used for sterilization and can cause skin irritation

�️ Thermal scanners CAN detect if people have a fever but CANNOT detect whether or not someone has the coronavirus

� Spraying alcohol or chlorine all over your body WILL NOT kill viruses that have already entered your body

� Vaccines against pneumonia, such as pneumococcal vaccine and _Haemophilus influenzae_ type b (Hib) vaccine, DO NOT provide protection against the coronavirus.

� There is NO evidence that regularly rinsing the nose with saline has protected people from infection with the coronavirus.

� Garlic is healthy but there is NO evidence from the current outbreak that eating garlic has protected people from the coronavirus.

� Antibiotics DO NOT work against viruses, antibiotics only work against bacteria.

� To date, there is NO specific medicine recommended to prevent or treat the coronavirus.

Judgement day

Judgement day

Thugs have invaded and set Bayelsa PDP secretariat ablaze. This follows the Supreme Court Judgement, nullifying David Lyon as the Governor elect of Bayelsa. The supreme court had ruled that the deputy governor-elect committed perjury by “fraudulently using different names as it suits him.” The supreme court further ordered INEC to immediately withdraw the Certificate of Return it earlier issued to them, and issue a fresh one to the party that secured the second-highest number of lawful votes and got the required constitutional spread at the election.

Good job

God Bless you

I don't celebrate failure

Wailers being retired early. Some of your observations noted. But you are always a hypocrite in your approach to criticism. You spoke about Kogi and remained silent about Rivers and Bayelsa.

Reno, you should be balanced in your approach like FFK. Anything and everything about Buhari and APC are bad, while anything and everything about GEJ and PDP are good.

Wailers talk about 100k gap in Okene LGA result for Kogi, but refused to compare it with 700k gap in Obio-Akpor for Rivers.

You talk about Leah, but refused to talk about Chibok Girls.

To put it mildly, you are a confirmed hypocrite

Who’s this David that ‘killed’ PDP’s Goliath in Bayelsa? Here’s a brief profile of David Lyon, the gov-elect


Before contesting Bayelsa governorship election, Mr David Perewonrimi Lyon was literally unknown to politics. He owned a security firm and held no known government position.

But on Sunday, after a keenly fought election that local and international observers say was fraught with irregularities and violence, INEC declared the All Progressives Congress candidate governor-elect of the Niger Delta state, ending the Peoples Democratic Party’s 20-year reign.

The electoral body said Lyon scored a total of 352, 552 votes to defeat PDP candidate, Mr Duoye Diri, who had 143,172 votes.

He swept six of the eight local governments in the state.

“That Lyon David of APC having satisfied the requirement of the law is hereby declared winner and returned elected,” Mr Faraday Orumwese, Vice-Chancellor of University of Benin and the returning officer in the election, declared Monday morning in Yenagoa.

It seemed Lyon was up against a greater political force than himself. Apart from being backed by incumbent governor Seriake Dickson, Duoye is a serving senator who has a rooted political background. Before his election in 2019 as a senator, Diri, 60, served as a member of House of Representatives.

He was Commissioner for Youth and Sports in the state when former president Goodluck Jonathan, was governor.

But Lyon, 49, never held or contested for any top political position until two months ago when the current junior petroleum minister and former governor of Bayelsa State, Mr Timipre Sylva, influenced his nomination for APC ticket.

As an unknown figure, Lyon’s victory at the primaries expectedly triggered an internal crisis and legal battles that remained unresolved until a day before the elections.

Mr Heineken Lokpobiri, one of the five aspirants defeated by Lyon in the controversial APC primaries, disagreed with the outcome, insisting he was the party’s authentic candidate.

After the party failed to resolve the issue internally, Lokpobiri, a former minister, headed to the courts, asking it to declare him the winner.

Barely 48 hours before the polls opened, the federal high court in Yenagoa, the state capital, ruled that APC had no candidate for Saturday’s polls.

To APC’s relief, the Court of Appeal in Port Harcourt on Friday promptly set aside the November judgement of the high court and ordered the electoral commission, INEC, to allow the party’s registered candidate to contest.

It seemed the 11th-hour legal hurdles would mar APC’s chances. A wide margin of 209,380 votes was more than enough to make all the difference in an oil-rich state political observers see as key in APC’s quest to spread into the South-South region, ahead of the 2023 general elections.

Until now, APC only had Edo in the region.

David Lyon – Defying the odds

The choice of Lyon as the man to lead the charge in challenging PDP’s reign in Bayelsa did not entirely surprise some in the state.

Although not a popular figure, some knew him as a philanthropist and a good orator.

“He is very open-minded and generous,” said Mr Goddey Niweigha, community development chairman of Odi town and an APC supporter.

Instructively, Odi is in Kolokuma Opokuma LGA where PDP’s Diri comes from. Many were surprised that APC could get more than 8,000 votes in the LGA.

“He spends so much on paying school fees for our children, he has sent so many people abroad. Those that lost their jobs, he gave them money to start a new life,” Niweigha said.

The party supporter said Lyon is loved because he believes in investing in human lives.

“He has a security company which has employed more than a thousand Bayelsa indigenes,” he said.

Lyon is the CEO of Darlon Security and Guard, a private security firm in Bayelsa State. He was born into the Olodiana clan of Southern Ijaw Local Government Area of the state. Protest vote against PDP?

Some analysts believe APC’s victory was more than anything else, a protest vote against PDP and Mr Dickson’s long but hardly helpful governments.

Niweigha described the administration of the outgoing governor as sectional, saying Dickson only cares about people in his circle.

He said under Dickson, those not connected to power are likely to “die of frustration” if they survive rampant violence.

“Two years ago, he dismissed so many workers and this caused so much deaths in the state,” he said.

“He cuts people’s salaries. Those in level 14, he pays them level 9 salary. He only pays gratuity to those close to him.”

The APC governor-elect also benefitted from the rift within PDP fold. It did not come as a surprise that he won in ex-president Jonathan’s Ogbia Local Government Area.

The ex-president who is also a former governor of the state is believed to have withheld support for his party, PDP, over a disagreement with Dickson, who ensured Diri was sponsored as the party’s candidate at the expense of Mr Timi Alaibe, reportedly backed by Mr Jonathan.

The stunning turn of events that heralded Lyon’s victory has now presented the governor-elect a unique challenge of changing the landscape of the riverine state, largely blessed with oil and mineral resources but plagued by poverty.

Continuity is key to development. That is why I always salute President Muhammadu Buhari

Some people need to be arrested before the set Africa on fire.

The Nigerian government has made two major demands from South Africa in the aftermath of xenophobic attacks in the country.

The businesses of many Nigerians in South Africa have been destroyed, looted or burnt in the past week since xenophobic attacks resumed in the country against foreign nationals.

Before the latest incident, many Nigerians have also been killed in suspected xenophobic attacks by South Africans.

Speaking to journalists after a meeting with President Muhammadu Buhari, Nigeria’s foreign affairs minister, Geoffery Onyeama, said Nigeria had made two major demands from the South African government.

He said a special envoy sent by President Muhammadu Buhari to South Africa will focus on the two issues.

“It is just those two key issues, the compensation payment and what security mechanism be put in place to make sure that these kinds of attacks do not recur,” the minister said.

[[s]quote author=sreamsense post=81848366]People like OP are even parts of the reasons we can't get it right in this country, we will only keep managing this country till we go one by one because nobody can satisfy us. Free megabyte is making OP to misbehave. Have you ever carried out through investigative journalism? Even if it appears as if the lady is tired, did she tell you she was tired? What of if she insisted in carring the umbrella even after trying to seek assistance for her? Have you also considered if she is working for her money? What of if prof was too carried away with programme at the moment of snapping the picture and do you know what happen thereafter? I am not his fan, but believe me, this is not enough evidence to castigate him online like this without carrying out detail investigative journalism on what transpired before, during and after the event as well as getting opinion of both on the issue before coming online. Remember, our leaders are human being like you and I, don't expect perfect system from them all the time and if you think is easy, go and join politics and show us perfect example you are looking for. People like you are quick to remind government to give us stable light, which is good, but if someone like you gets that stable light, what will you do than to use the light to watch video and play music as well as charge your phone to post rubbish like this online without proper investigation. Believe me, even if they sell this country and divide the money equally among her citizens, we will still have problem. We are all parts of the problems, leaders and followers![/quote][/s]
