Your implication is that those countries like the USA are so confident in their'light years' medical system that they don't bother been as cautious as we are. There's just no pleasing some people. After what you just read here, all you know is that you're not impressed. They're light years ahead of us and yet the disease is spreading and they have confirmed deaths from the disease. Watch the news, Americans are doing panic shopping stocking up on supplies so they can hole up at home in fear. A CostCo store was besieged by hoarders that the store was cleared out. The people who came in contact with the Italian are rounded up but you're not impressed. I'm not a fan of our government but I won't hesitate to give kudos where and when it's due.
Powersurge:


For a starter, I personally felt fed did not do enough in preventing the first case. It's not a crime if NIgeria successfully repel any case of ConViD-19.

Secondly, those countries' health systems are light years ahead of ours.

It makes sense for people to be apprehensive against a very leathal virus: of which an outbreak could lead to massive lost of lives (considering our level of technology).

Once again I am not impressed with the idea of allowing people from ConViD-19 infested countries to enter NIgeria by merely filling forms.

The purpose of the document is that should a passenger on that flight become I'll with coronavirus, they have a trail of information that can be used to contact all the passengers on that flight. Apart from collecting that pertinent information and checking body temperature, there's nothing else the govt can do as of this minute.
Yes they used the same methodology during the Ebola outbreak. I don't remember if we filled out forms back then but yes they did check for body temperature during the Ebola outbreak.
Let me answer your questiin. They filled out forms. Useless forms if you ask me. Like someone said here that anyone can put any information on those forms. Do you have the resources to verify such? Then it is a useless endeavour which is why even oyinbos wont waste time on such. Like I said we have mastered the art of appearing efficient with no tangible results

you are screened by a thermal imaging machine, which you may not notice. Coming back into Abuja, you are given a form to fill while still in the plane. The form collects your contact details, where you’ve been and your recent health status.

When you land, a health worker checks that you fully completed the form. If you didn’t, you are pulled aside and made to fill it. Once you pass the heath worker, there are signs asking whether you have been to China recently. Another health worker is watching the thermal images.

Another good one

At Immigration, all the Immigration, DSS and FAAN officials are all wearing face masks. There was nothing of such at Heathrow. At Dulles, an Immigration officer only asked me when last I visited China and took my finger prints. I was the one that asked for a hand sanitiser.

I totally disagree with your analysis. Everyone on the flight knows that this information is due to the coronavirus and they know that in case someone is eventually found to have the virus on that flight it is to their own advantage to be contacted hence everyone tried their best to provide as.much information as possible.

Dr Joe Abah said he visited London, America and Nigeria airports and concluded that Nigeria airport is far better prepared than those he visited in terms of coronavirus preparation. A fool and enemy of Nigeria in you said the guy was lying that you passed through the same airport and that nothing like that exist.

I now said make corona hate u if na true u dey talk. And if na lie make all the virus in this world locate you but u are yet to agreed to my comment and instead u go around perambulating trying to change the story. Again may all the deadly virus in this world locate you if na lie u dey talk. Amin, Iseee, Aseeeeee.

I am not asking you to agree or disagree. I am stating a fact here. Because you give me questionnaire, does that mean everything I put there is true? If it is not true, do you have the resources to verify it? Will you start tracing each passenger's movement to find out if he/she is lying? You say everyone knows...... what of the passenger has it and doesnt mind spreading it. Do you know if that virus is a biological weapon? You font even have the facts about the origins and you somehow assume that everyone infected will have good intentions. Haba make una dey reason like 21st century people nah.

Mr I too know, pls state for us here what the govt should have done. Some just like to complain without having any real solution to a problem. Pls state in clear terms what and what should have been done or should be done going foward.

Bust means women's breast size. Burst means to explode. I'm sure you don't mean Canada or breast. Hence the only logical conclusion is Canada or you go explode abi?
Obviously you haven't traveled wide and far to say that MMA is the most corrupt airport in the world. Go to latin America and some parts of Africa and see how officials will try to swindle you.
In fact, one officer tried to steal brand new cell phones from my carry on while going through Milan airport about 16 years ago when cell phone was still a novelty.

U seem to have a problem with comprehension. Once again, that’s how it is spelt in that expression. See below.

There's no hint of logic in your faulty argument, you also failed to provide a better alternative simply because there's none as of this minute.
How in the world will anyone with common sense say that providing contact information for emergency contact is a waste of time. Even before corona virus, whenever I'm flying in and out on Delta, they always ask for emergency contact just in case.
This is a situation whereby after landing in Nigeria, a passenger can develop full blown Corona virus symptoms many days later. In such situation, it is prudent on the govt to have up to date information of every passenger on that flight to contact them and have them quarantined to prevent them from further spreading the virus.
It seems to me that some just want to complain about everything that this govt does just for the sake of complaining. I don't even mind anyone complaining or finding fault in any govt program, but you better have better ideas than what they have or kindly STFU.

May only their generations be obliterated by Babalù- Ayé.
Whether they are foreigners or indigenes, wishing that Africa, specifically Nigeria is plagued- their own tribulations have just started o, na their head dem go take carry their curses.
