Hello @Macphenson, it is very commendable to appreciate your concern with respect to the 5G Technology and its perceived relation to the spread of the novel Coronavirus. Truth is there is this unease with some Nigerians as to whether the 5 G technology is already in operation in Nigeria or not. Now, I think it's good to set the record straight: first, the statement of the Minister of Communication, Isa Patanmi,in relation to this is accurate and there is no discrepancy with the MTN's memo you posted. He actually mentioned it on Channel's TV while being interviewed that only a trial of this 5G technology took place last year, and that he was the one that conducted the trial. He further stated that licences were not yet given, as the Federal Government is still assessing everything about the new technology.

Second, it's very important to be knowledgeable in the field of Physics and Biology or at least do ones personal research from recognized Journals before one can have a good understanding of this linkage of 5G Technology with the spread of the Coronavirus. I can tell you that Electromagnetic Waves Radiations or Frequencies have nothing to do with the spread of this virus. At least, for now, there is no reputable scientific Journal that has this information. I think some of us need to do a bit of our research on areas outside our expertise before circulating unverified information as this, which could cause panic on others, especially the illiterates who usually depend on hearsay to build their opinions.If my stance on this 5G Technology vis-a-vis its connection to this pandemic is proven wrong by a superior scientific evidence, I will gladly take back my statements.
Those individuals that are hurling insults on the Minister, talking about his choice of religion, dress code, and preferred style of appearance, should understand that it is only prudent to respect his choice of personal lifestyle, which has nothing to do with his competence.The man is surely deserving of this position judging by his profile. I'm not his PA neither have I met him in person but I think we, Nigerian youth, would do a great good for ourselves if we improve on our fact finding skills before commenting on any issues of national discourse, or any information available on the social media at all. It is well with us all.
The E.M.W of 5G is the Killer! Covid is only used to cover there tracks.
Who are the "THERE"? They the Olympians who Trump said about that "they are coming for you".
The Olympians are after all sort of Weapons the achieve there 1BILLION Global Population Reduction . That is all they are after RIGTH now.
So there are more Heavier Plagues forthcoming Globally.
The Scenes you Commons know are not the Real same Scenes Behind the Scenes you know.
Once understand the link between Democracy and Capitalism and it Effects on the Commons Globallly, you Will ACTUALLY UNDERSTAND WHAT IS GOING ON GLOBALLY.
Is it true that the 5G comes with micro chip ?, And do u support that ?
No. 5G does not come with a chip. Whenever you see such a misleading post and you don't understand the technology. Just compare it with similar technology e.g 3G and you can safely dismiss the propaganda as lies.
Yenefer: Ah, the tin foil hat brigade, dont you just love em? Nope, bunch of sad gits living in there mums spare bedroom because they haven't got any friends or can't get a girlfriend, whose sole purpose in life it to watch conspiracy theorie videos on YouTube and burst there acne spots
5G only works with the new vaccine biochips they will soon be supplying. If you survive this phase of the population control programs they want to know that you are ready for elite services and tracking. Until the next round. No big deal.. Some people seem to think that COVID-19 is some kind of cyborg virus that transmits itself via radio waves
You never ever seem to make sense, no matter what you write. Do you normally sniff something?
dulux07: God, why do africans reason like this. Why do we always believe every nonsense and act as the victim? Even the so-called literate spew nonsense .
Other countries are busy on research and development, You guys are ranting about one irrelevant 5g tech. No wonder the continent is backward
Please tell them. Most nairalanders have short memories. Most of them are brain dead just because of hatred. What is the correlation between Radiation and Viruses? May God deliver you all.
Are you aware that 5g installations are going on around the world even with the lockdown. There are proofs...
There is no correlation between Corona and 5g ....yes
It is not Corona virus that is killing people because the virus is a simple virus that can be easily treated with chloroquine( that is a scientific fact)
It is 5g that is killing people, China went ahead with 5g in wuhan ,wanting to be ahead of the world. That's what killed the people
There is a deception to claim that it is corona virus killing people while it is not,
People die every day...but now everyone who dies now is counted as people killed by corona virus(there is already alot of complaints about that)
Are you aware that 5g is not a new technology, it is being used in the military for several purposes, it is also used to disperse protesters ( please confirm that )
The Corona virus is just like flu virus ,but anyone who tries to say that it can be handled with chloroquine is insulted and shut down.
The idea is to create panic and to be able to release the ID2020 vaccination ( you can google that)..it is done with a microchip,the receiver can be tracked.
Denmark already passed a law few week ago on "forceful vaccination "(you can Google that too)
The major reason for the social distancing is to avoid protests...
The virus is claimed to be able to survive on surfaces for 4days....that makes it airborne (because the virus is weightless)...for an airborne disease lockdown is useless because there is air even in our homes...
So many more to say... let me just stop
But there is grand behind the scene agenda...
It's a universal vaccination war.
virus is one of the most deadliest microorganism, It is difficult to treat and it is easily transmitted. Hiv/aids, smallpox, ebola, influenza, herpes, hepatitis etc. They rarely have a cure, symptoms are being treated most times.
Covid19 is a new virus, hence whatever drug is to be confirmed as the preferred treatment must be studied thoroughly, chloroquine back then had side effects. Just because a particular drug is potent in the treatment of a specific disease, doesn't mean it is safe to use.
Virus has been killing people for years, there is nothing wrong with 5g, it is just an advancement in technology. Was 5g the cause of ebola too, sars or the spanish flu.
Nawa for this una microchip theories, 666, antichrist.
Oga, 5g like other networks( 0- 300ghz) have not been scientifically proven to have adverse effect on humans. What effects has it had on countries where it is being deployed before now. The only reason the whites made it controversial is simply because it was pioneered in china. Get ur facts right and not just believe everything you see.
Really!!? If you are as bright as you type, you should not make such assumptions as that the 5th generation network will not affect human health negatively. The 5g satelite radiation is as potent as anything.
OVIHINNO: The Govt said they have only carried out the initial testing but no license to operate 5G network has been issued. From the available information there is at least no pranks been played by the government. The government has its weaknesses no doubt but we should be more pragmatic in our vindictiveness/criticism
You don't believe anything until it hits you, typical Blackman. There are indications that 5G has devastating effect on human cells which a lot of quarters (selfish ones) have debunked. There is no smoke without a fire. Even the US government has recently banned the installation of 5G which I believe is a red flag. Think outside the box and don't believe in everything you're fed with.
ChelseaDr: Till date, there has not been any proven connection between the 5G network and the Covid-19 pandemic.
Yes the FG in partnership with the MTN carried out a demo testing of the 5G network last year (November 2019) but this was carried out with the existing 4G network.
4G was used because 5G has not been licensed in the country. NCC is currently understudying the result and is yet to communicate their findings to the Hon Minister of Communication and Digital Economy
yrex01: Mr exposed. I'm not saying 5g is d caused of covid'19 ooo but if they finally launch it, pls stay close to the mast for 5hrs n come here to tell us we go school. I'm not xtain tho but 5g z very deadly to human. We talking bout 60hz man.. Get sense 60hz !!!!
Mumu, this one has listened to that yoruba audio circulating. You dont even know what hertz is talk more electromagnetic waves, Your radio you hold is resonating to a frequency more than 60hertz and you havnt died. You're just a gullible non scientific buffon. I can't explain futher cos you cant comprehend.
dulux07: God, why do africans reason like this. Why do we always believe every nonsense and act as the victim? Even the so-called literate spew nonsense .
Other countries are busy on research and development, You guys are ranting about one irrelevant 5g tech. No wonder the continent is backward
then you are the one who is backward, people like you are the problem in Africa, 5g tech is the recent talk all over the world, in the uk things are being destroyed in rejection to it. get updated before you spew trash
Nobody is talking about 5g and any virus now, what we are saying is that this 5g is releasing harmful rays that the poor can't afford to pay for with their health. What our government should be thinking of now is how they can improve the living standard of it's citizens. Why would you allow an aboki to suffer the effect of a 5g when he is using a touch light phone! It's so pathetic.. WE SAY NO TO 5g...
Oooh So the rays from 5G affects the immune system.
Macphenson: With the recent brouhaha surrounding the 5G network all over the world, prompting the Federal government to issue a statement that nobody has been licensed to operate a 5G network, I stumbled across this memo from MTN Nigeria saying they have tested 5G in Nigeria.
Oh yes they did that few months ago with government backing, they tested it in Abuja, Lagos and ph city with the backing of FG even Minister of Communication and digital economy was there
Hello @Macphenson, it is very commendable to appreciate your concern with respect to the 5G Technology and its perceived relation to the spread of the novel Coronavirus. Truth is there is this unease with some Nigerians as to whether the 5 G technology is already in operation in Nigeria or not. Now, I think it's good to set the record straight: first, the statement of the Minister of Communication, Isa Patanmi,in relation to this is accurate and there is no discrepancy with the MTN's memo you posted. He actually mentioned it on Channel's TV while being interviewed that only a trial of this 5G technology took place last year, and that he was the one that conducted the trial. He further stated that licences were not yet given, as the Federal Government is still assessing everything about the new technology.

Second, it's very important to be knowledgeable in the field of Physics and Biology or at least do ones personal research from recognized Journals before one can have a good understanding of this linkage of 5G Technology with the spread of the Coronavirus. I can tell you that Electromagnetic Waves Radiations or Frequencies have nothing to do with the spread of this virus. At least, for now, there is no reputable scientific Journal that has this information.

You have spoken well. How I wish 5% of Nigerian youth are like you, the future will be bright.

Oga, concerns about the effect of network radiation on human and its environment is not something new, so not only 5g, when a new network is out, it comes with higher frequency so thereby raising more concerns, but till date there is no scientific proof that 5g, 4g,3g has a significant effect on health and plants.
5g has been tested/deployed in more than 30 countries, just 2 or 3 countries and few cities banned it "temporarily", just to carry out more research on it to confirm it is safe, not because it had negative impact on their people or environment.
No. 5G does not come with a chip. Whenever you see such a misleading post and you don't understand the technology. Just compare it with similar technology e.g 3G and you can safely dismiss the propaganda as lies.
If it doesn't come with a chip, it should be a welcome development...tho , I am little afraid because it's China , their products is not trusted, all the satellite they launch for us is nowhere to be found , those in charge should check is properly before accepting it , also look at health implications, because I was following the supremacy battle btw China and South Korea on who will be the first launcher of 5G mobile , where it was supposed to be launch in 2020 or 2021, they speed the process and launch in 2019, that alone is case for concern, mostly in Africa here where we don't have health facilities to know the effects even due to the fact that it uses MILLIWAVES...

I checked the site, it has a lot of information that enlightens o this whole 5G and radiation business Why are people afraid to look into the danger of this 5G thing, I don't know.
The problem with some idiots is they wait for others to read news and give them fake info about the government. Please try to read every need your self.
Macphenson: With the recent brouhaha surrounding the 5G network all over the world, prompting the Federal government to issue a statement that nobody has been licensed to operate a 5G network, I stumbled across this memo from MTN Nigeria saying they have tested 5G in Nigeria.
Redoil: do we have a government in Nigeria please l need an answer
jakD: Right from the start of this Buhari-led regime, it's been lies always. So Op, forget that question.
Are you guys saying that you all were not aware when 5G was tested in Nigeria last year? How then did you find the link online? Testing and licensing are two different things. We don't even have infrastructure to deploy 5G technology as at today. You guys should at least, try to appear as educated people now. Even though we knew you all are dumb
