The fools in power, let’s watch and see what happens. You’d be calling for help soon.

As at this evening, Nigeria has recorded 14 new cases of covid-19. I rest my case.

Why? Are we seeing changes?

MashaAllah. Allah's blessing be with you my brother

Yeye bello

That is not a wise move for the people of Kogi state in particular, and Nigeria at large.

Laudable

The virus is over b dat

Good one

Do you want them dead? Do you have to learn in a hard way? Unfortunately, you haven’t got the wherewithal to cope if there’s any eventuality

Correct i commend governor Yahaya Adoza Bello for this action...what's lock down doing to Nigeria since announced apart from hunger and fustration

They want to learn the hard way 🤦‍♀️

The governor should think very well

It's simple, let every adult take precaution as they go to their places of worship, I see nothing wrong with that

For crying out loud, are these governors sick in the heads or is there something they know that we do not know? 900+ people died of covid-19 out of a tiny population of just over 66m here in 🇬🇧 yesterday. Does these governors not listen to the news? 🇳🇬 help thy self..😭😭😭

Nothing can heal if not God Almighty, I commend Gov. Yaya Bello for that.

Why?

Madness😲😲 if i go anyway make i bend

Shouldn't it be NCDC advising on which states should lift bans?

Katsina opened the WhatsApp group chat. Ondo joined and Kogi just joined too. I expect more states to join

These guys no like as we never still clock 500 cases. What's wrong with these governors?

About time...other states should follow suit....assuming the virus has been mitigated. Be wise. Be safe.
