ulation for the treatment of COVID-19, the Presidency has yet to send the samples to the National Agency for Food and Drug Administration and Control for testing,A top source told one of our correspondents that the drug, which was delivered to the President, Major General Muhammadu Buhari , by his Guinea Bissau counterpart, Umarro Embalo, nine days ago had remained in the possession of the Secretary to the Government of the Federation, Boss Mustapha.
The source lamented the slow pace of work by the Federal Government regarding its response to COVID-19. The source lamented that it might be June before the Madagascan drug could be deployed for scientific analysis, adding that herbal drugs would need a longer testing period than orthodox medicine. Mustapha had said, “As God would have it, the President of Guinea Bissau decided to visit our President last Saturday and when he was coming, he came with our consignment of five cartons and those five cartons were delivered to me yesterday in the evening, sealed, without a bottle out of it.
She had said, “When the drug arrives, it will go to the Minister of Health who will in turn hand it over to NAFDAC through the PTF. It is after that we would start our laboratory examination. It will be subjected to the normal procedure. She said, “The normal mandatory procedure is three months, but under this emergency, we would give it a top priority to come out with urgent results. In the process of the evaluation, if NAFDAC needs to get in touch with the manufacturers, we will. It all depends on the analysis in the lab.
Mamora spoke on Friday during a webinar by Emmanuel Chapel, titled, ‘State of health: Epidemic outbreaks, COVID-19 talk series’ hosted by the Founder and CEO, Health Markets Africa, Fola Laoye. He said, “A lot of people were not even having it easy to get tested in those countries and besides, we heard on note that the cost of these tests in some of these countries is quite expensive and some Nigerians would find it inconvenient to pay.
He added that the state was also considering giving grants to some Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises in the state given the impact of COVID-19 on their activities. “We are compiling data and we are trying to see what kind of support we can give them. We have asked the ones currently with the Lagos State Employment Trust Fund not to pay the interest on their facilities with the state government. We have suspended the payment of interest.
Forget about all these rubbish they are doing...make them open church for us oooo
They have started dying in Madagascar. Covid-Organic ain't curing jack! Won tí je gbèsè. 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣
Since dis leader of dis government is a cattle rearer, all dis government cares abt is cow... This is d most useless n senseless government in d history of Nigeria n Africa.
Strange
bobbiiaustin You want sinzu money stop flowing in...the govt is in for big business with covid19.
Drug that has been shared by top men
😂🤣😂
Are you sure they have not finished sharing the herbs among themselves and have nothing left for lab analysis?
Mikhaelbronze Don't be surprise that the Madagascar COVID19 drugs sent to Nigeria have been stolen in the Northern part of the country.
Next thing you will hear in news is the Madagascar herbal tonic is not certified and not fit for consumption in Nigeria according to NAFDAC I know how Nigeria government operate
Bubu has embezzled the Madagascar medications as usual
Madagascar made a big mistake by sending d drug to a country that doesn't believe in herself let alone other country.
They are sharing it amongst themselves and their relatives like the dates saga.
Plandemic
It won't get to NAFDAC. Even tho it did get to NAFDAC, the results will come out not potent for treating covid 19. You want to spoil our govt business with the drugs. You think other Africa countries are happy with the discovery?
Our leaders have gone mad again
When Bill Gate is at the peak of his game enticing them with irresistible offers.
QUOTE: Herbal medicines are recognized by our system. The problem is Nigerians’ psychological disposition towards anything local
I sense conspiracy, insincerity and nonchallant attitude.
What did you expect? Corruption at work. Some people MUST be settled
All this people don't want this pandemic end I swear
What a country 🤦♂️
AremuSAA Maybe na for presidential use... The agency should go get their own from the manufacturer... 🙅
Who cares? Na dem still dey die. How will they make money from donors?
No problem. Let them shaa pay for the drugs in full.
Corruption metamorphosed into madness.
Do they mean well for Nigerians?
They re taking it😂😂😂😂
Dont mind these people!!!
Am surprised, if the president requested for it, PTF should him and get the ball rolling
FGN returned back to sender. Non deliverable since Madagascar is asking fir €170,000. They wanna eat outta our $3.5b IMF emergency loan 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
MRtim__1911 That bitch don sell Nigerians 😂
I knew from the onset they will frustrate the drug because all of them are making unholy wealth with the pandemic and they will be shocked how God will handle the illegal wealth they amass. God is Alpha and Omega
We are waiting for the world first RNA and DNA experimental vaccine from Bill Gate. Nigeria and Africa don't believe in our people, research and discovery. Good things only come from western world.
FG still need more cases,sinzu must continue to cash out....
Oga just tell us that this Madagascar's drug is still agbo
Dey fail to send or dey don't want to send it yes or no?bcos I knw dis government very well dat herbal is in their houses n dey're usin it to treat their families dis government is wicked n evil dey want d poor masses to die of d virus but d GOD we serve wil not allow dat
When they have shacked everything 😂 😂 Naija my country.
There was once a country
The first question I'll ask God when I get to heaven is 'Why did you make me a Nigerian'
Baba Bubu Wey don drink & share d Herbal medicine to his family members and staff within Aso Rock. Baba no get una time ooh his jejeli sipping d Madagascar cure.
mayeesq So much disconnect in this government..first , health minister doesn't know whereabout of the chinese medics, nor hazard allowance of people in his Ministry, and some other things by others in same committee ..... now this. Smh
Why did they import the drug after all. Their covers have been blown long ago, we've gotten to know of their lies and conspiracies. Madagascar or not, they should free up movement so we can roll with our normal lives. Movement has been freed in Nassarawa state tho.
Udedibia 😂😂
If the drug is sent to nafdac and it's efficacy is proven that means the avenue to loot covid 19 funds will be closed and we don't want that, do we NigeriaGov
Oti mu tan 🤣🤣🙆♀️🙆♀️
Dem never use am finish among themselves, obviously no need for NAFDAC
They have shared it within themselves
Don't be decived the Aso rock cabals are using the drugs to treat themselves.
Useless set of guys.... How can you be up and doing when the head is not. It's a disgrace, a shame..... A failed administration.
Why na ?
No sense of urgency even in times like this when there is a serious health issue. These guys can never change.
They r drinking it in Aso rock
I don't know what is really happening with Nigerians more especially the youth, you always criticise your leaders not knowing what are the outcomes and may be one day will be one of the leaders. Please always say positive and think positive.
Why did they accept/receive the herbal drug in the first place?
A country where national holiday comes first before a minimal solution to a nationwide pandemic
I'm waiting to see just one stupid comment.... 😒
Theis country has failed forever...they should just give me Biafra .
So... This is their own immediate effect of testing the drug for use... Hmm... God will judge...
Fulanis muslims terrorist controlled government of Nigeria are murderers, looters, criminals, 1 Nigeria is a crime against humanity
What do you expect from a failed government that is never proactive to situations but think of the financial gains first. Assholes
The interest of the people is never the priority. We are in God's hands now
I know he won't i doubt this buhari from the very begging ,, stealing and begging will stop if he do so ,, ndi ochi
Well maybe they want the drug to expire before they give it to them, you know this govt likes sharing expired things like the custom rice...
There's nothing left to share, they ve shared it in their homes. Hopeless people
They are mixing it with enough water to increase the quantity.
Hmmm
I know you people still want more cases. The drug you bought is just to fulfill all righteousness....
At every point in time the govt will showcase it's incompetence.Buhari is an abomination that foolish majority brought on d nation through election. D evil signature this govt will leave behind will last for century
sijirule336 Person don dey sip am already 😂😂😂😂
Unfortunate leaders
MBuhari must be gulping them with his buddies. Lol...
COVID-19 PLC is the new organisation in Nigeria
The problem with Nigeria leaders is lack of implementation...
I am not expecting anything good from government officials. So, I don't get disappointed by their antics. Are they not theives without reputation or shame?They have surely kept the drugs for their own personal, family & friends use as usual.The public are for Gate-trial vaccines
They may have finished the drugs.
Baba don keep am for his own precaution..
Dem Don dey drink am sharply, no time!!
They prefer the announcement of new Victim than the cure , a pity
E be things...
When can we ever hear a good news in this country?
Punch should shut up joor.
Can you imagine useless people..dey use una hand expose una self .....your country is sick and a relief drug has been brought yet you don't wanna issue it to your people ...what are you trying to tell us...(the cases are scam)😅😅😅😅😅
They’ve shared it amongst themselves.
Justifying the claims of sceptics.
In abroad there is COVID-19, in Nigeria, we have COVID-19 PLC.
This is a punchy headline, am expecting a statement by the government.
Which kind of administration is this .. See useless Gov we voted for .... Do we even have gov DAT care for it citizen .... Why will people even believe the gov ..... Nigeria I fear this country oh
Of which they've initially promised us to send it immediately without delay. But mind you, I'm not surprised bcos COVID-19 is their new way of embezzling money
Drug wey dem done drink finish
Something they got for their own consumption, who told NAFDAC that the Nigerian leaders have faith in them?
Do we really have good and caring leaders?
Drug that they've all consumed.
Stupid APC government 🥴
See this government ehnnn they have too many secrets ...and I don taya , they have shared the medication among themselves some go use am drink garri sef
They have shared it now😂🤣 something that de have drank finish
He don use am treat his wife
Maybe some people in the cabinet are secretly using them. In Nigeria, anything can happen.
Something to wonder about...
Corruption will not let them do the needful. Useless government.
What is annoying is how they be making noise everyday as though they have the interest of people’s health at heart.
Sad.
They're going to use them with their Fam
They're using the products to treat themselves first.
99% of the npower Beneficiaries have not received alert up till now and the minister for humanitarian said she has paid all volunteers yestrday,kindly pls help us tell the world that she is Lyn cos dat how she normally does for some months now
Drug wey dem don drink finish
They have drink it finish.. Lol
That's the first thing the presidency would have done, bcoz only NAFDAC have the capacity to run a clinical trial on the Madagascar's Drug. Let Nigerians know if the drug is to be used or not
They've drank it.
Just expect the rejoinder asap, it's punch, it's in them
The SGF and the ministry of health don't want covid-19 to end soon cos it's a big business for them
Them don drink am finish inside aso rock.. U see dis pipu ehn😂
I guess they will exclude the PDP members wen sharing the drugs
The Madagascar herb has not been sent for the same reason they had to cancel the presidential media broadcast. Baba woke up one morning and began to say 'Ms Betty' instead of Aisha and 'Andalusia' instead of Adesina.
This Buhari’s administration and all the people in d administration are professional Armed robbers. They won’t want to send d Madagascar’s cure to NAFDAC na. U won make their covid19 pot of soup end just like that. This administration is doomed and cursed
If Truly all covid19 index are real as stated dey would have send it to NAFDAC ..... Buh since they just about cash out
Failed and deceptive government of MBuhari and OfficialAPCNg
This Buhari’s administration and all the people in d administration are professional Armed robbers. This administration is doomed
they will not because they are still making money with their false figures on covid one nine Nigeria re in trouble d devils leaders nations hmmn
Smh
maybe SGF is carrying out self test on it.pls wetin be he profession sef ?
They are waiting for Bill Gates's vaccine.. 😷
Our COVID-19 case in this country is not that serious that is why, forget the INEC results that are been brought in everyday from all around the country..
They are using the product to treat there children and relatives in there various house's, and forgot to send samples to NAFDAC😀😀 Even when they did send sample to NAFDAC without bribe along side, it will never pass clinical trial in that office😀😀😀
It's only God that would help Nigerians from Nigeria. This really speaks volume about the people we voted for.
This Madagascar cure is going to reveal that it is African leaders that sold off Africa into colonisation
This is wickedness. Should we not be moving at high-speed?
Country that places no value on her citizens
Do They want to keep it for themselves?
They're using it to party in the villa
Lazy Nigerian politicians 😅
Nigeria is a bitch
Am sure they would have share those drug among themselves.
Country wey no get future nigeria🤣🤣🤣
