Sit down their and watch Ncdc eating your money while you stay at home yawning! An insider is opening your eyes and the youth are going the other way! How is it political when someone of the same party is going against the bad conspiracy? Open your eyes naija!

How much NCDC give you?

Noooooo NCDC must have infected him will soon be their response.I honestly wanno believe this politicians in kogi must be smoking some cheap Chinese weed.

What is wrong with Bello? How can Kogi state is very newr Abuja have no case of the virus ? He should stop this nonsense.youthful exhuberence he displays all the time. That sit of a Governor is not for kids and for child's play.

Why must a fool who calls himself a leader be begged to accept the realty. Leave when he or his immediate family contract the virus he will need no one to be appealing to him to activate Government response.

Now it is obvious that Yahaya Bello has been wrong. This is no longer NCDC speaking but the family. I won't be surprised the governors comes out to say the family has accepted bribe. I have been wondering how a transit town like Kogi will remain negative.

Stop giving us your Media lies. The governor said that he is under pressure to say that his state has false covid 19. Why are you lying to Nigerian and the world, why why fake media. Your Media are the one destroying Nigeria and said it's our late Buhari. fakemedianigeria

I hope it isn't too late

Na must?

Madness dey worry this our governments sometimes. Just negodu how these goons are playing and jeopardising the lives of their citizens with all these kindergarten parties political wars. Tụfịakwa
