'But like a fleck of fresh yam flour in a morsel of amala, Kogi and CrossRiver states remain as clean as a hound’s tooth, untouched and undefiled by the deadly virus!'

A mystery yet to be unravelled about the COVID-19 pandemic since Nigeria was hit by it about two months ago is the fact that Kogi and Cross River states are yet to record a single case while it ravages the remaining 34 states as well as the Federal Capital Territory. At the last count, the country had recorded more than 7,000 cases and no fewer than 211 deaths.

I am also not in a position to agree or disagree with those who have attributed the state of affairs in The People’s Paradise to the pro-active steps taken by Governor Ben Ayade to stop the virus from gaining entry. It could well be that the state remains impregnable because coronavirus is not a candidate for Paradise.

The NCDC delegation, however, got the shock of their lives with Governor Bello’s insistence when they got to Lokoja, the state capital, that they would not only be quarantined, but also subjected to COVID-19 tests so that they would not be infecting the state with the deadly virus. It was a situation the delegation had not anticipated, much less prepared for.

If only they know that there are peculiar factors that could make the Confluence State impregnable to the menace of COVID-19. To start with, it is not for nothing that it was felicitously named ‘Kogi’, a Yoruba adverbial allusion something or someone that is hard or tough.

Because they knew that covid-19 is a scam in Nigeria.

It's not deadly in Nigeria, but scam by governors and NCDC
