This lockdown lockdown they are shouting all over will eventually end in chaos . It is absolutely insane to lockdown ppl in their houses for 2 weeks without providing them any food and expect them not to react.
Even the countries that started this lockdown method didn't do it this way, they are providing daily food to everyone and during the lockdown,they are going into every house testing everyone.
We are just telling ppl to lockdown , we are not testing them to know who and who is infected?
What the fg should have done is to close all schools ,give workers both state and federal workers 4 weeks break with double pay, ask all non essential private business to close for the same period , this will automatically reduce movement by 50% , give food markets 8hrs period to open every day. And establish testing centers in all wards and local government areas ,.TESTING IS THE KEY TO DEFEATING CORONA VIRUS NOT LOCKDOWN . the more you get ppl tested, the more you will understand and know what to do.

Die in which hunger? Even if you give Nigerians 1 month notice to lock down;still a lot of people will cry of hunger.. Did this so called hunger starts today or yesterday? The same negligence by the govt and ignorance of the people led countries like Italy,UK, US and Spain in the state of emergency that they are.. Are we waiting till there is an outburst of this epidemic in Nigeria before we believe it is real and in the country??

Did you get to read or listen to BBC, CNN or ALJ news? 500+ dies daily in UK, 700+ in Spain just yesterday and 800+ in Italy. These are countries where there is an outbreak. Now is this what we are waiting to see happen in Nigeria? Is it until then that people will believe its happening and stay put at home? I almost shed tears yesterday whilst sitting in front of my TV and watching news hour..

A lot of people claim Nigeria weather is too hot for covid-19. Is our weather hotter than Dubia? Yet dubia shut down economy activities and also observe sit@home. Is our weather hotter than Saudi? Yet even mecca was shut down... Religious fanatics in Nigeria choose to remain clueless and blindfolded. Even Vatican shut down.

Hungry didn't start today, it won't end tomorrow. There must be the poor among us. Yes, the system did subject us to the lifestyle suffering and smiling, as well as that of survival of the fittest as if we are in the wildlife..lol..

The government took a perfect measure..hunger/starvation for two weeks won't kill anyone..if so be it that hunger strikes, let them ask neighbours for aid.. This is the time of helping .


I am not in support of people of ignorance who choose not to adhere to this measure of sit at home. We are stiffneck people in this nation.

Let us pray for God to heal our Land and the World at large.. We should make a hay while the shine.. #STAY@HOME #HUNGERDON'TKILL #HUNGERNOBETODAY ..

Hungerbad my brother, rest on...
Meanwhile, shit is getting real
How human being go Tek survive, we're on God

LivingSage:
Yeah

pawesome:
but is the truth...have you ever heard of anyone die of hunger in Nigeria?

iammo:


after the two weeks we can take your hypothesis serious, for now we know more than 3 have died even if FG is claiming lesser number

SoNature:


While you raised some valid points, you must understand why governments around the world are implementing lockdowns.

The truth of the matter is that Covid-19 is a new virus, and researchers don't know much about it up till now.

It is veryyyyyyyy misleading to assume that the little you know about the disease is all there is to it. Yes, researchers are losing sleep just to understand it better even till today.

For instance, if you read some facts about Covid-19 on WHO website, you will see that there are many questions begging for answers.

In summary, you can only contain something you understand not something you don't. The idea of lockdown is to reduce human interaction to the barest minimum because it's the fastest way of reducing the spread of Covid-19 pandemic.

It's quite a pity that we always bastardize things in this country, including religion and lockdowns.

Hello! If they choose not to die by hunger, then it's opened to them to die by Covid-19 virus.

It's an opened choice to all. But the threat is that the stupidity of an individual will manifest on hundreds. That's just the only pain.

Something must kill a man.

Adonko:
Oh so you prefer they die of hunger abi?

proclinician:
I like bad governance for one thing. When the chips are down those who were in support because of the momentary gain suffer as much as those who are not in support. Lagos was one of the states that made sure buhari goes back into power despite bring grossly incompetent now they can't stay at home. For some young guys that found a digital skills before now that still de cash out till tomorrow you already know u found gold. To the rest of the poor, starving miserable bastards that voted buhari in, if u stay alive to see 2023, activate your senses and vote wise.

Chicagoesontop:
Naija things dey always different, i see people killing themselves just to give the government a bad name, i haven't seen anybody that just died of hunger, if government no send you abeg send yourself .. Y'all know the kind of country we are in, if you like protest from now till next year, government no send you they no send you, if hunger catch you just find a way and feed yourself and stop dragging government inside your hunger because they didn't provide food for you before the lockdown, blame Corona not the government at this time !!

KaptainAfrika:
I keep saying people are not taking it serious, because they don't drop dead immediately after contacting the Corona Virus. What is hunger compared to suffocating because fluids have filled your lungs? COVID-19 KILLS FASTER THAN HUNGER.
P.s: I am not saying government shouldn't assist, but this hunger they are crying about, is much more preferable to the pain I have seen COVID-19 Patients going through in Isolation centers.

blowjohn:


Am talking about the middle class crying hunger.
U think it's the rich upper class that donated to Tacha?
It was the silly ass middle and lower class

CoronaVirusRelo:
People are just anxious to die.

Even the protest aids transmission of the virus.

In the quest to keep them safe, they still revolting.

malnutrition in Nigeria....gimme an instance of when you heard of that and led to hunger...in Nigeria...I don't want to know bout other countries..in Nigeria

Felicity0001:

Just listen to yourself. The people should blame corona and not the government. Since when as corona become human to make decision and necessary action to saving life?

This irresponsible givernment brought this plague upon us, the people shouted to them to close all borders and stop all international flight from coming into the country but No they didnt listen simply because they want their family members and relatives to come back first. After they return they shutdown everywhere. Their relatives that returned are the once that brought this disease into the country. The Italian man they think or claim had the virus was tested negative several times.

But thank God for one thing. na them dey catch the disease, and may the virus kill them all.

Naughtysite:


The stupid government doesn't again know how to use BVN.

If it's to track rich people, they will know there is BVN, or to collect tax, or to collect stamp duty.

Many bank accounts have only N2,000 or less inside them.

Why not credit such accounts with N5,000 each.

They prefer to come out and tell us that it costs N10,000 to test one person for Corona Virus. A test they won't still grant a poor man.

Hypocrit:
let me give you the honor of quoting you. You knew in your heart that what you posted was foolish but you still choose to post it anyway. Na rate your foolishness on a scale of 1 to 10

babaolofin:
What people forgot to mention is that the lockdown effect abroad has started to have effect in Lagos two weeks before Governor Sanwoolu announced lockdown in Lagos. A week to lockdown, most business activities had died down as civil servants and schools are on covid - 19 holiday.

Most self employed and hustlers have spent three weeks now in its fourth week doing nothing to survive while civil servants, paid employees, military pensioners have collected their salaries.

Those on the streets are unemployed people, self employed and hustlers including Area boys and MC Oluomo boys (Agbero) that have nothing to survive.

Beer and pepper soup joints on the streets are still making their cool cash in the evening and queues on the ATMs longer to show that Salary earners are having good holiday.

Another great observation is that people have stopped answering calls or responding to whatsap messages from some friends and family members.

Angelfrost:


We are not at war sir... We being forced to follow the rest of the world to stop the spread of a virus with less lethality here than most resident infections... Fact!!!

Use better analogies please!!!

Naughtysite:


Your comment is very stupid but you don't know.

If you are narrow minded or lack experience, just shut up.

jesus247:
Hunger virus kills faster than corona virus. Corona can still give u at least 14days but for hunger virus, after just 12hrs u will start seeing d sign that u have bn infected. After 2 days u are gone.....

Death by hunger is very very painful. Atleast I know how I felt the first time I attempted a 3 days dry fasting. You can die and still be feeling the pain in the other world.

LivingSage:
Yes. Of blessed memory

Adonko:
see dying of the virus can be a little bit understandable given the fact that you have little or no control over it especially staying in a third world nation like Nigeria. On the other hand dying of hunger is so bad and the pain won't just go away even after death lol knowing fully well you have hands, you can bustle and put food on the table but here you are tied to a corner and you are hungry, pls am going out the the virus can do whatever it feels like nonsense.
