Banning inter state, international travels this lock down of a thing. The Federal Govt has not done the needful they’ve not asked this important question. How will the poor survive this period?

Okay

Is long overdue please do the needful StaySafe

No government anywhere, fight for ur self and stay save.

Is this the time to start this? Something that should have been dine from day one! Our govt ignorantly helped in spreading the virus up to the stage it is. I hope we're able to curtail this menace!

And how is FG going to keep them moto park boys under control. US Senate voted for trillion dollar stimulus. Billions in Canada's case. They did that to protect civilization. This FG is going to turn Nigeria to TheWalkingDead.

Gbese dey oh

God punish una ....... first case would have solve all this craziness

No nauu🥺

Counter protective, what of supply of food, water, drugs & essential commodities.Let the distance be maintain for nw. No spontaneous/ isolated cases recorded so far, all are returnees and close contacts of returnees Stepping up to trace and test the contacts would go a long way

The thing then suppose do since ...

That is commendable,but they should do more.Measures should be twice as fast as the pace of the virus

The Arm forces and other security agencies should be at alert to arrest and jail offenders because most Nigerians don’t listen to simply order in fact fine should be place on non compliance period

Some governors are ahead of the so called FG

People are separated from their families.. Some of us are due back from work soonest.. What are you banning?.. Regulate this.. Get test apparatus evenly distributed and OK approved tested travellers to travel.

They waited for Gov Wike to assume the role of federal govt before it dawned on them to do the right thing. That is what happens when you populate the presidency with family members who are equally dimwits; no one knows what to do. Aboki family govt🚶

All this one na nonsense if the right measures were taken the moment the virus was made known to the public knowledge

Please before u do that make sure u provide necessary means for the masses you knew very well that this ban will be very hard on us

Provide test kits for every Nigerians let know our status

Yet local flight still landing at mm2 ...they should gedifok

Punch stop wasting your time !!! The work is complete !!!

Where is MBuhari and Abba Kyari? They are in UK? Somebody says YES

Una don wake up? Shior

BernardthePRO FG should also ban FG from traveling to UK to receive treatments

Please if u are going to do this, just provide some amount of money so that people won't starve to death

Hope they will close the movement of herdsmen

Don't forget to make provisions for the needy.

because they themselves Don't know hafa they have spread that thing. shame

UchennaVikieben PDP government managed Ebola that is even more deadlier than covid 19 without closing anything but APC will inflect pains on Nigerians without paliative measures. why not tell Nigerians to wear nose mask and wash their hands than all these nonsense without sense

Audio ban

Gbagam! Edon happen

Before you ban this remember transportation of goods and services. Don't starve people to death. Be wise

Good!!!

Hmm na wa o.. Na China chop meat, na we dey wash hand!

Neurofemsz Good!

... To...it means they are not sure

Do it now Oga Sir

Don't frustrate the citizens that didn't travel out of the country... You left what you suppose to have done by closing the Airports and borders.... Now you want to stop inter state travel is that the right solutions for now or to fumigation every states

But dem don cure 6 people for Lagos na.

it's a good move, but FG should provide alternative means of living for the time been. Most Nigerian lives on daily income.

When? Time is going

Pls is this government try to kill us alive because of this convid 19 U said we should stay at home and some that doesn't have a means of survival are trying to move out of the city to there villages and u are restricting them.why why Nigeria government pls think as a human

Why didn't you place the ban before Abba Kyari caught the virus? At least e for dey stranded for Abuja.

FG should stop just talking and start acting ontime. PLS Close it already..

We don tell dem since but dem no hear

They're still planning. Let them continue planning, they just made Lagos the new Capital.

Sha tell us the date early enough.

Saw this one coming 😷

It’s simple. Protect the north at all cost since it isn’t much there yet.

Yeye FG that can not close air space. Road is where they will flex muscles for.

All federal government talk about is banned this banned that what exactly they provide for Nigeria people no food no money every day thing causelynn every day

Do that fast.

People will still trek

One initial ban would have prevented all these bans upandan...very useless set of people called leaders

Confused government, how is that a cure and a way forward?

You're doing well MBuhari ...

This would have been done earlier .

long overdue. now that Lagos and Abuja are now empty.

Follow my new Twitter account fans of chrisbrown......ain't stop loving you all

😂 Covid-19 visits Abuja Dem sit-up

That's rubbish

But the infected are not coming through the bus parks, they are coming through the international airports. Stopping the masses and leaving the elites who spread it is crazy. The chief of staff or atikus son never went to a park.

States already did that , you slow human being

For what reason na🙄🙄

We are on a long walk to hunger.

Good

You couldn't shut all borders when you ought to. Now You see the importance of banning inter state travel. Acting when the milk has already been spilled .God please help us all

Yeah, do the needful

To ban Really?

when Buhari refuse to listen to ur citizens, we are all facing the consequences.

They are meant to enforce Ban on International Returnees (they constitute largest number of the confirmed Cases), not people running for their Lives within Naija. 🙄🙄

What is To start acting now

Mr president like seriously, No person in this world is born as a friend or as an enemy, Our behavior, attitude and character makes them what they are to us. May God save guide us

Snail motion. International flights still operating and you want to ban inter state travels. Close the boarders first not this audio closing.

No na Una for still waiting

maimuna_maims Na buhari talk am abi na fg? Please we want to hwar it directly from the president. Let him give the order on air.

That’s the best isolation. No need of total shuttle cos people will suffer

😂😂😂jokers as if they provide wat we will Eat

Good one

Stop talking about what to do please. It is high time we carried all these out for goodness sake.

🤔

msskurama you need to hurry out

Who talk am?

This what you should have done. Mr president. Please do something New. This isn't a news.

Are we still on ' to ban ' stage or they should just sweep into action immediately

I've been waiting for this

Fantabulous

All these nonsense after the virus has gone far. Nigeria was never ready but Lai Mohammed lied to us. Useless Apc government

Swears this is the best
