Nigeria with room temperature of about 47°c has been described as the hot zone of Africa and thought to be difficult for the Corona virus to survive. However, currently there has been reported cases of Corona virus in the same country Nigeria whichw
about 10 senators and 15 house of Representatives were affected. On 24th March 2020, Nigeria recorded their first incident of death as a result of Corona virus as the formal MD of PPMC Suleiman Achimugu dies over night. He is the first casuaty in Nigeria. He got back to UK two weeks ago. Started exhibiting symptoms on Tuesday. It was told that the family reported to the National Center for Disease Control (NCDC). They came and conducted a test which reported positive of Corona virus. He started coughing profusely just before his death. But before his death he was rushed to the specialist hospital in Gwagwalada Abuja where he passed on. His family is under quarentine. On the other hands, Bauchi State governor Bala Abdulkadir Mohammed goes into self isolation as he was reported positive of Corona virus. Currently Nigerians were advised by their dear president Mohammadu Buhari to stay at home.
No social gathering of any form. No marriage ceremony should be observed. Churches are closed down, companies are been shortdown. Public services at the verge of halting. Nigeria is in deep fear and denger of the COVID 19 plague. Nigeria minister of health converts 3 story building that can accommodate 300beds into quarantine centers as coro na virus keeps Nigerians in a state of delirium.
Leaders in Nigeria only knew how to attend functions and re-patch formerly tarred roads.
They eat largely and comfortably on the legal and illegal taxes and over-paddded budgets for the imaginary nation.
Passing outrageous bills in the house and getting kitchen allowances.
No thoughts for the health care facilities of the nation, since they always had access to foreign countries for treatment. Leaving the poor masses with option of redundant, never improving teaching hospitals.
Now the COVID 19 virus has happened in on them, and they have nowhere to go now the repercussions of their negligence is starring them in the face. A bittersweet tale.
When we survive this pandemic, I hope they learn.
_I mean, have you seen an isolation centre in various States? The horrid building alone fit make pesin die.
