I always have this sweet feeling i cant describe anytime my comment is on first page
I spend all my days on nairaland since the beginning of lockdown
I read all stories with more than 5000 views on nairaland and view all the tokunbo cars on auto section having it mind i will be able to afford it one day
I started dropping rap videos on instagram to clear the boredom
Everything is boring i pray God save us
Mind you im damn broke with 7 naira in my account
Should in case youve got a few bucks to spare remember me

Our heart goes to them all...!

These are the real heros, not messi, cr7, Tiger woods, Roger Federer and others. They are the ones that deserve the multi-million pounds weekly payments that these sportsmen and politicians are earning. Without them, life will be at a standstill as it is now.

May their beautiful souls rest in perfect peace.

God, please heal the world. This is becoming too much. Have mercy on us your creations.


Explorers, you're appreciated!

Honestly, explorers deserves to be paid/appreciated by the admin of this great forum. He's one of the people that always post reasonable, genuine, historical, educative and current news and information on this forum. He's one of the reasons some people still visit this forum for first hand information on what's happening and had happened globally, even with pictorial evidences.

Well done my brother. You're appreciated.

God bless you explorer I really respect you and the way you make post here Stay safe my brother/sir

I haven't even seen any post where the admin has openly appreciated explorers, and that's not a good way to encourage someone like him who's instrumental to having huge members here.


Anyways, God bless you @explorers.

He deserves to be appreciated by every Nairalander...

What a great sacrifice for humanity. Rtd. doctors too? Wow!

Kudos to you Explorers. Well done. How's our little damsel doing?

If na here, doctors for don take off..

This brought me close to tears.

#Humanity will survive this because they always bond together in crisis. These doctors and nurses are heroes.

With all these protective gears, doctors and nurses who have access to the best of it are dying yet one yeye Governor said if you have face mask, no need for social distancing.

Let it be that by some twist of fate, Nigerian case won't be worse although there is no proven scientific evidence to back that up.

If 100 Nigerian doctors die, the wives and husbands of the remaining ones might lock them up at home.

I might be prepard for this lockdown for more than a month but nothing will prepare any of us for what might hit us.

Am very very very very very scared.

Going to work knowing you have inadequate protection.

I think the world is yet to understand fully how this virus works.

Cos these guys should be able to be secured judging from their advanced protective gears.

I still don't get how health workers are recording massive fatalities all over the world

Football unites the world.
It brings joy and happiness to people who likely would have died of depression and domestic trauma from spouses and family members...yes...you have a nagging wife, instead of going to the bar to get drunk, you go watch football and come home happy if your favourite wins.
Football limits one's gallivanting which may result to accidents and crises.
Football serves as a source of income to people and employment as well.
Football brings about infrastructural developments
Football boost the economy of a country.
Football exposes people to different countries, broadens one's horizon of acquaintances and knowledge of tribes and people far and wide.
Watching one's football idols playing to one's expectations is the greatest joy ever.
Yes, anybody can be a doctor or a nurse provided that person goes to college and other necessary medical institutions satisfactorily. But not anybody can be Lionel Messi and Christiano Ronaldo... In fact nobody can be Messi or Christiano Ronaldo in the field of play. They are only their one of a kind in the whole Universe.

But for football, more people would have died than recorded of this virus.
Football is our everyday hero.
Doctors and nurses are conditional heros.
