Coronavirus Cases in Nigeria

Presently, on 1st March 2020, one case has been confirmed in person of an Italian man who visited the nation. Hundreds if not thousands of others are supposed to be under quarantine but not yet. Another serious suspect is the taxi driver who took the infected Italian man to his destination. The places the Italian man visited had been locked down which include offices of Exxon Mobil and Agip (I think) in Victoria Island, Lagos. The other place locked down is a cement factory in Ogun State owned by Lafarge, at Ewekoro, news reported that some visitors who had been in contact with the infected Italian man had visited the place. The worst and most worrisome situation which might make Nigeria second largest victim country in the world, if the story is true, is that the said taxi driver is at large, he ran away avoiding being quarantined, demanding for 100million naira for his family, saying that he wont be the only person to go down, wishing to see the Nigerian president, Buhari and hug him. He is threatening to spread the virus TO ALL. Till date, he has not been arrested. Can you imagine how worse the situation would be if he is actually infected and many people had been in contact with him since then till now and till, who knows when, he would be arrested and quarantined?

All passengers on board in the airplane that brought the Italian man are under track, but myself cannot boast for my nation that all these people would be tracked down and put under quarantine.

What is the current situation with the coronavirus in Lagos, Nigeria, and should I be scared travelling there?

Nigeria reported her first and only case on Friday and it has remained so.

About 30 to 100 persons who came in contact with the victim have been quarantine and being observed presently.

The Italian who imported the virus to the West African country without Custom Wahala is said to be stable with no signs of departure into the great beyond anytime soon.

Anyway this is what I heard from several sources with a little salt and Chilli here and there.

As at today, global CONVID-19 cases are:

So are Lagosians worried about this virus?

We were, mostly in the first two days.

Our shopping malls were already lacking hand sanitizers. A few were walking around the city with masks.

And men, Nigerian men who never fail to find a reason to destroy one or few bottles of beer were very pleased to hear that alcohol could destroy the virus, hence, the bars were unfortunately filled to the brim in few places.

There is news that frequent-Sex is also good for the virus, considering I haven't set eyes on my neighbours for two days it might be that this news is being taken with good faith.

So, is Nigeria safe right now?

Firstly; we, I have my own worries and the virus is the least of them right now.

I have to deal with NEPA, before traffic, then I'm still contemplating on reporting the gatekeeper to the landlord; he swears he doesn't smoke wee but wee is all I perceive in and around him.

As you can see the virus is our least worry presently unless something changes.

There is something the world doesn't know about Nigeria:

We are at our best when you expect us to be at our worst.There are things that would happen in Nigeria and one could say; oh, this will destroy this country, this will divide them...

Boy, calm down, that is the moment disunited Nigerians unite to tackle the situation amicably.

Although I don't have much faith in the government to keep me safe, if ever trouble-jam-problem on the virus case, there are people I'm betting my last Naira on, the rich folks, they would do anything to keep me safe.

Not that they like me, but they won't want a virus from ordinary poor folks to wipe them and their family off the earth.

They would donate billions to ensure I and fellow Nigerians don't contract the virus.

So you're safe living or coming into Nigeria, presently.

How To Fix A Broken Relationship

Many couples find that working through trouble actually makes their relationship even stronger. What they realize is that all relationship require work, love, and patience to succeed, and this is especially true when trying to mend a broken relationship. 1. Determine if the other person wants to fix the relationship. There is no sense in trying to fix something if you are the only one willing to do the work. If your partner is unapologetic for mistakes, dismissive of your desire to talk, or continues hurtful behavior, it might be time to move on. It takes two people to mend a broken relationship. If you are the only one trying to save things then you will never succeed. 2. Determine why the relationship is in trouble. All relationships go through rough patches at one point or another.

Two fall to their deaths down an elevator shaft during robbery

In the latter category was this effort by Robert Green and Jacob Jagendorf. Green was a night watchman (some accounts say elevator operator) at a New York City shirt factory, and apparently conceived a way to use his access to pull off a theft of expensive silk fabric. Late one night, he and Jagendorf stopped an elevator on the fifth floor of the building, wedged the doors open, and proceeded to load in bolts of the pricy fabric, doing so in the dark to avoid alerting any observers outside the building. At some point the elevator rose to the tenth f...

A Germany Regiment marching down from their mountain positions surrender to the Americans, Austria, 1945

A Germany Regiment marching down from their mountain positions surrender to the Americans, Austria, 1945 After Germany's surrender in May 1945, millions of German soldiers remained prisoners of war. In France, their internment lasted a particularly long time. But, for some former soldiers, it was a path to rehabilitation. After Germany's surrender in May 1945, millions of German soldiers remained prisoners of war. In France, their internment lasted a particularly long time. But, for some former soldiers, it was a path to rehabilitation. French units lost out to US soldiers in the last meters of the race to reach Adolf Hitler's destroyed Alpine headquarters, the Berghof. But French troops in southern Germany in early May 1945 nonetheless made good progress, capturing one town after the other. After four years of Nazi occupation, France, under General Charles de Gaulle, joined the ultimately victorious Allied powers in 1944. And the country made sure the defeated German natio...

How To Ask For A Date

Asking someone out on a date can be stressful and anxiety-inducing. If you've ever felt overwhelmed or uncertain on how to approach asking someone out, don't worry, you're not alone. The stress of asking someone out combined with fear of rejection prevent many people from taking the first step in a romantic relationship. In America, 64% of people are single.
