Coronavirus: Why Nigerians Should Not Be Afraid by EBMedia: 9:03am On Feb 28, 2020
I heard the deadly virus finally entered Lagos, Nigeria

No need for panic because the corona grinding engine has been in Nigeria for years and has not affected Nigerians, nothminding all the egusi, ogbono, and other food items Nigerians have eaten from it. That is the same way Nigerians shall not be affected by this virus.

Don't you think so? #IGBERETV

DISCLAIMER: Please, don't get me wrong. In fact, what I mean is that, we Nigerians should all join hands to deal with this virus by observing all the precautionary measures given by the ministry of health. We should also avoid spreading misinformation to create panic through social media.

Once we observe these measures, the virus will be eradicated from Nigeria, as was the case during the time of Ebola .#IGBERETV

#PrecautionsToTake

1. Regularly and thoroughly wash your hands with soap and water, and use alcohol-based hand sanitiser.

2. Maintain at least 1 & half metres (5 feet) distance between you and anyone who is coughing or sneezing.

I wished the Italian was going to aso rock for a meeting! This is the importance of having all security and health equipments in place.

Maybe this occurrence, can be a blessing or a lesson that we won’t forget in a long time! Shame on all Nigerian government since independence!!
