Rivers State lock down trapped me in Port Harcourt as I was about to return to base in Awka. Everywhere is locked down in Port Harcourt. Restaurants shut, fastfoods shut, hunger set in to 90 degrees.

I actually made moves, when I got to the boundary around Elele, stern looking combined team of army and police stationed were turning people back. Despite my contacts within the corridors of power in Rivers state, they never listened to me. I retreated back to PH, locked myself inside the hotel room, thinking of the next moves as my phone kept ringing, wifey was so worried about me.

I drove out of my hotel room where I have been trapped for almost a week now, I went round town, nothing to eat. Then I went to Market Square in GRA, see how people queued to enter the mall. It was like those experience one usually see back then at US embassy in Lagos.

In a nutshell, hunger could kill faster than Coronavirus. Let fastfoods, restaurants open for business.

Mods push this so that restaurants could open for some of us that can't cook. Thank you

This is like a war time..

Congratulations to u..

That security gat some lovely shape.

Man must eat, while Corona is ravaging. What to do now!

The biggest restaurant in Port Harcourt- Jevnik is equally shut down. No where to eat good food right now

The situation to me is being mismanaged.

Stopping people from accessing food and food itemes is madness.


Our leaders should be cautiouse of starving the masses to death as stockpiling of foods is only possible to few.

Egungun don enter Express... he no fit enter he no fit come back.. hope say motor no go jam am like dis...

I feel like exchanging this SUV for a well made ofe akwu and rice, then ofe onugbu and semo for takeaway for dinner. It is that bad right now.

plenty of nice ass on the queue

Is that all you have to say?

About last week, I advised people to withdraw enough cash and keep with them always and people thought it was a stupid advice.

I live in a cashless society yet I still keep up to $10k at home right now with no less than $2k in my wallet everywhere I go, no joke. I know that bank deposits are safe even after pandemic but I keep the maximum amount that I can afford to loose in case of fire or theft but will be enough to last me for a long time just incase online transactions fail.

If this pandemic lasts another 3months which I don't pray, I bet that several banks ATMs will start paying less than requested.

Well, goodluck to you Chino.

You don't understand my predicament. I have enough cash right here, but the cash is now useless as there's no food, I mean cooked restaurant food or fast food meals. There's no restaurant nor fast food that is open right now in PH.

How much will you pay let me Waybill stanel bitter leaf soup and pounded yam through RTC

But I thought they said no movement at all. I was expecting that after two -three days we can come out in little packs.

Honestly the purpose of stay at home is defeated

Chai nwanne, I am game. If Stanel is open we need to make the arrangement. But you know that as at now no movement in and out of Rivers state, particularly Port Harcourt.

Now is a good time to make use of roadside food vendors in small streets or are they closed too?
You gotta improvise.

Sorry......but I av to ask.....why did but stay back when the announcement was made earlier on about the lock down?

I wish you are here to understand the situation. There's no even ordinary gala seller and coke seller on the streets. Roasted plantain and fish are equally out of the streets. There's a very powerful task force that moves around PH to make sure that food vendors or roadside food vendors are flushed out or even arrested for flaunting government order.

I normally don't eat those roadside foods, but my guy the situation is getting out of hand, if I see roasted plantain and fish I go eat now

I thought its the usual government order that you can compromise. Maybe because it is something that affects even top ranking members of the public too.

Shit is getting real

Don't mind the op. What will it take you to go to Street vendors and get your supplies. If you don't eat from Jevenik will you die? Even the hotel you are staying, are there no food in the hotel...

Then Wike is very wrong with that kind of lockdown. You don't stop stop essential services in a lockdown.
There is a stay at home order here too. Eateries are closed but drive thrus are open, the post office still delivers mails, groceries stores are open except that most food items are often sold out in them and truck drivers are busy moving food from state to state.
No sensible leader stops essential services especially food vending.

Park your car somewhere safe. Get to the state boundary where security men are stationed with a public transport. Trek past the security men and look for a vehicle turning back to your location.

This one go do quarantine with PH babe.
The lockdown was announced ahead.

Guy you think this is a joke. Even the hotel I am staying at Woji road GRA, we are are not up to 8 persons in the whole hotel. No new check-ins right now because no activity in the state. Land borders, airport in the state are all shut down. The restaurant in the hotel has been shut for over 4days now. Well I don't blame some of you that are not here right now.
