When you understand the transmission matrix of coronavirus you will know the reason why Lagos and Abuja should be under lock down. Ask China how they were able to successfully fight the virus. Prof you be novice for this angle. Shine your eye make you learn. This one no be speaking of grammar. Beijing was not locked down. Wuhan where the virus emanated is centrally located which means proactive measures must be done to control movement. |

WS is right. We are not in a war emergency. The president in a federal structure cannot just use presidential fiat to say this or that; to restrict movement or impose curfew. Those attacking Soyinka do not have a good grasp of what a federal government means. When Trump,some days back, threatened to quarantine New York,Cuomo, the governor ,said it would be illegal to do that. Then Trump dropped the idea. It's only in war situations that the president in a presidential system can use emergency laws to act with sweeping powers in a way to overrule the states. Buhari has acted outside his constitutional rights. And for me,the governors that acquiesced and became quiescent simply don't have balls.In short,they've acted more sheepishly than stupid sheep. 1 Like 1 Share |

Without Mass Testing, we are just cooking a recipe for disaster. Lockdown means nothing without testing, isolating and treating infected ones.

lexy2014: At this point, we should not be looking at how it came in, but how can we get out of it. And while we are also trying to discuss how 'WE' can survive it, this case requires you to save yourself first. |

Lockdown; we're in lockdown still they reported new case, lockdown, no church no mosque but people gathered at the bar and saloon to drink. Lockdown can not benefit unless if they want us to die by starvation |
