Seems like the only man making sense and doing it apolitically. It is a difficult choice but I can't see any other way out than that especially now that it's obviously nolonger a disease for the elites.

To you atheist it's not, but to many who believe in God's existence, it does. There's nothing bad in obeying the authority. The bible even confirmed it. Left to the believers, they would go to church and mosque to worship God not minding covid-19.

Nothing good comes easy ...their must be victims for the general good

Lock down is painful but it's the only way ...maybe when we get to equador state where dead bodies are everywhere u people would learn

Now now and sharp sharp mentality have always been our problem added with the need to cut corners, greed, and self-interest.

Peter Obi is really a demented imbeciile. He is always speaking from both side of his mouth due to mental depravity.


This is an interview he granted The Punch late last month condemning the lockdown.


Anthony Okafor
A former Governor of Anambra State , Mr Peter Obi , has warned against locking down the country over coronavirus scare, without alternative arrangements to cushion the effects of such action on the masses .
He said whilst all possible measures should be deployed to stop the spread of COVID- 19 , appropriate measures should be put in place to mitigate the suffering of the vulnerable in society .
In a statement by his Media Adviser, Valentine Obienyem, Obi , who was the vice presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party in the 2019 election, said markets and other business ventures should not be closed to further impoverish the poor.
He said , ” There are several millions of our populace who are unemployed . Their means of livelihood depends on daily income which the present situation will definitely worsen . ”
He noted that in locking down the country, such vulnerable people should be factored into government plans , as was the case in other countries , by putting measures in place to cushion the effects of the lockdown on them.
Obi , who expressed gratitude for the efforts of some political leaders , captains of industry and corporate bodies , urged the Federal Government to do more to mitigate the situation, especially for poor Nigerians , as being witnessed in other climes.
He added , “ It would be counter -productive to keep only the elite in mind when taking such far - reaching decisions as closing down markets without having some cushioning measures for the traders . ”
He enjoined politicians , especially legislators , to go back to their constituencies to be with their people at a time like this .
“This is the time to be with your people in your various constituencies , ” Obi said .
He said it did not make any sense for politicians to be observing the stay - at -home in various places outside their constituencies at this trying time , instead of being with their constituents to help their people to find solutions to their problems and challenges .
Obi said that by being in their constituencies to monitor the situation, the elected leaders will be in a position not only to support their people in time of need , but to also properly advise government on how to address the fallouts of government policies.
He called on leaders of all segments of society to make sacrifices and show commitment at this critical period in the country’ s history .

This is the unstable idiot who wanted to become our vice president.

Dear ikeonyia,

If the report on interview of obi that you posted up there is true, then he has not spoken from both sides of his mouth" as you claimed, you will need to go through the interview again and try to comprehend with what he said about lifting of lockdown.
