If Buhari's staff could ask help from US billionaire and letter had the tweet deleted, them what then do you expect from NCDC birthed from erroneous government? It's normal stuff.

Everyone is LockDown in their homes because of your lies. Keep deceiving yourselves.

Can you just imagine? How are we sure that they've not been making mistakes or Future reports will be correct 🙄🤦

Nah so that's Nigeria scam country.

I have always known the NCDC are not giving accurate numbers on the COVID-19. May be they have been inflating their numbers all this while to get FG attention in terms of funding.....

A snake doesn't fail to hatch or give birth to something very long; NCDCgov members were appointed by this 'misyarning' govt, so, na dia way. It's a Buhari something🚶

Continue lying oo

Now, we know the NUMBERS is all bullshit. Nigeria Govt is a scam. They actually want the numbers to go up so dey can get more donations, & then a relief fund from the World Bank. It's all about 💰, not d welfare of d citizens. Starving d masses cos of their selfish interest.

Most of the discovered cases aren't positive. they're using the number to create more fear in order get more money.

Those who not tracking?

Error

Incompetence everywhere! Incompetence in the Presidency: incompetence in the senate! Incompetent governors! Incompetent ministers! To top it up, we are blessed with an incompetent president! Is Nigeria a home of the incompetent? God help Nigeria

Why the error now? are you inec or supreme court ? We are not looking for the winner nw

I'm sure the number of contact case and death case is more than what they publish online.

209 vs 210. What differences 😆😆

Their Fada! 🖐🏽

And you guys are planning to bring Nigerians abroad back abi? Error on someone’s health status? The joke continues.

May God help them to be accurate in data collection.
