Opinion: COVID-19: Nigerians Must Not Sleep Through This War!, By ‘Tope Fasua

I am certainly not happy in the least, with the management of this crisis by the World Health Organization and other ‘technocrats’ working with them so far. I have heard often that the best strategy is to put fear into the hearts of people in order to get them to do the right thing but I think it is grossly irresponsible to use fear to manage any medical condition. Fear blinds people and makes them take all the wrong decisions.

Why did we never focus on hope from the beginning? Why the blackout on the fact that most people recovered from the disease and that most carriers had very mild symptoms? Why the frenzy that this disease will kill half the world? In Nigeria alone there is the prediction that it will wipe out 45million people.

In the same mid-October 2019, there was a simulation of a pandemic foisted by Coronavirus. Yes, you heard right. The disease simulated , was simply called a New Coronavirus. This simulation was sponsored by the World Economic Forum and chaired by scholars from Johns Hopkins University.

I felt he dismissed perhaps 800 million people, especially in Sub-Sahara Africa with a wave of hand. We know we are sitting ducks against many things but even sitting ducks should defend themselves. What do we do to avoid what has been pronounced as mass deaths on a level we could never contain?We have been lucky so far that this disease has had very minimal effects here.
