I really can't get my head around this whole ostentatiously but systemic and a well calculated attempt of a group of people; whoever they may be, to effectively propagate fear and anxiety on a global scale in the name of what was an EPIDEMIC (so called by the way) but almost as quick as anyone could blink an eyelid, has become a PANDEMIC which sadly sounds like music to the ears of those who profit from it and this it is nothing more than a cynical display of monumental fear mongering.

Even more annoyingly displeasing are the actions and reactions of governments and leaders around the world especially those in Africa many of whom have acted in the form of a well orchestrated, perfectly conducted symphony to the billings of a supposed interest group of persons, and appearing to follow their whims and caprices with surgical precision compliance leaving the rest of us to bear the brunt of their thoroughly uninformed actions. The truth is many of these governments and leaders don't even know what to do, what directions to take and decisions to make in the greater good of their people first; but as it proves to be apparent in many cases, actions taken are for the selfish interest of a few at the detriment of the larger majority of whom it can't be said if they truly care for as claimed.

Why spread fear?
Fear has never been a tool for good but as always for evil. Its even medically proven that such psychological and emotional states of fear and anxiety progressively weakens the immune system of a human being worse still when they now have underlining medical conditions many of whom have been listed among COVID-19 casualties in fatality in am attempt to mate credence to this fear mongering campaign.

These are the simple questions am asking:
Why spread Fear?
Who benefits from this Fear Mongering?
Who has fear ever helped?
How much of this lock-down is down to fear and how of it is down to share preventive measures?
Who is responsible for generating the contents in statistics that feeds our fear?

This is not a matter of wishful thinking to ignore or deny the obvious just because we want to hear "goodnews" in self deceit but rather its questioning who is responsible for what we say is OBVIOUS.

LAST LAST, PLEASE WHERE IS OUR OWN ROAD MAP FOR REOPENING OUR SOCIAL-ECONOMIC LIFE IN NIGERIA?
