This coronavirus has shown how well equipped our medical organizations are.

it has shown that the Nigerian government has really invested in the medical world of Nigeria.

it has shown how hugely the government has spent for the provision of necessary and needed amenities in the medical sector.


so, even if all the Nigerian politicians get infected by the virus today, they would get adequate treatment from the abundant medical provisions that are already in place.

Then buy. This is just sickening

Well for you smart TVs, ACs and Soundsystems, check my signature
I was waiting for someone to post this so I can reply. You can't buy ventilators right now. The are in such a high demand that countries that are producing them like China are keeping them for themselves or selling to other countries with deep pockets willing to pay any amount.

Imagine that 500 politicians have the virus, that will make them to take Health sector in Nigeria seriously.

This is a lie ,fact check claims before you spread .The Minister of health is a DOCTOR. In saner climes that you yearn for,you will be in jail now or asked to pay millions of naira.
Be the change you want and stop spreading lies.

But we have the largest churches and mosques as well a a lot of eye popping mansions outside Nigeria, who cares

Please hold your elected leaders responsible. I guess you voted a pastor during the last election? Pastors are not responsible for Nigerian's problems but the leaders you voted for.

This is the time for the universities and specialised technological institutions to be more creative and diversify into ventilators production. But we don't have such outfits in Nigeria, apart maybe, innoson.

Universities don't make any difference, they are like places of worship and thuggery, they are not thinking of how to practically improve the academic and technological standards of the country.

Nope, if 500 politicians take up the virus. They will get all the available ventilators and recover to continue the cycle of looting while the thousands and millions they will infect will die from the virus.
