Stupid country.. now that the virus is here they wanna act like they were working or was serious about it. Why were they allowing in flight from Corona infected countries at the first place? Mtweew!!!

Why would they even allow Alien at first without checking his health status

I trust Nigeria's. Still walking to identify. Continue walking useless country with bad leaders n politician s

NickDunu__ Nigerians should take interest in this matter. Very serious !

How possible is that

They are talking in the nonsense 😒 They are talking in the thing that didn’t have experience atall😭

Hi

Do you know he was referred from a clinic in ogun state to Lagos? Investigate who referred him to Lagos and the ambulance that carried him. Health personnel treated him, ran blood tests on him before they hurriedly transferred him. Please trace it and keep everyone safe.

.

Ta shigo Nigeria.. 😅😅😅😂 WHO karku wasu damu ta shigo inda xa'ayi maganin ta...

We don’t have to know what the government is doing to stop the spread. All we wanna be assured of is our safety.

This is all madness because that Man pass through the Port Health officers, why didn’t they dictated it... Now they are putting us all in an unnecessary tension, You see this out government officials working at the Airport are zero zero as in ZERO

Oh God!!!!

our country and leaders are so dumb, we ought to have plan ahead of this immediately after the outbreak in china, but we kept mute and we are contemplating if it will get here, now it is here, God help us.

The immigration officials at the airport allowed him to enter the country knowing fully well that he was coming from Milan, Italy where the virus is raging. No wonder Magu associated the spread with corruption

How about other passengers on board with the Italian Man? They need to be quarantined & examined If they have made any contact with friends & family, bring them all in, quarantine & test If their family members have made contact with anyone else, do the same coronavirusnigeria

Please take precautions guys🙏🏿

The problem here is not only about protecting yourself what about people that don't have even know about this I just pray African don't experience this virus outbreak may God never allow it because people will die like chicken,God have mercy 🙏🙏🙏🙏😭😭😭

If you’re on this thread and you need bulk facial mask for your company. Send a Dm.

I want to know what happened to our airport health officers that were stationed there for scanning (If there was any). He got in on 25th and on 27th he was reported to be a carrier of the virus, did you not scan him? That person knew he has the virus and choose Africa-Nigeria

Lol Like they can

Can d government also identify d hundreds of people those who made contact with the said Italian man has in turn made contact with? Instead of taking adequate precautions, screening and conducting necessary test on them b4 letting them in, u r here causing unnecessary tension

But this are not Nigerians in the picture

This is what has been running through my mind, track down everyone that has made contact with him from the persons onboard the flight, to airport personnels that attended to him...down to what ever means by which he got to the hospital. Everyone should be placed under quarantine

Looking for mate?

The government has started working to identify. Listen to them. Is the right way to go about with this Or these people should have been tracked immediately they landed. The government told us of their readiness to combat this. I don't think the FG of Nigeria is ready for this

Please and please let them also publish their names and addresses. God Save Nigeria and Nigerians. Thanks

Onyema_Donald Oga watin you bring for us, because nah oyibo. No proper check was done, now see.

God knows, If the Corona virus outbreak had started in Africa, we'd have been quarantined as a continent 😭😭😭

GOOD.

Fire brigade approach always

What airlines he flew in with?

Why using this picture?.. Are they Nigerians

Uhmmmnn... The question is... Since when did we have the Italian came in to the country... And how sure do our FG thinks this would be achievable?🙄

The fore most thing to do.

Like say dem fit locate anybody in nigeria and how they move, do we have data base for finding people or we are just joking with words like lia mohammed

PrincessofImo just that you know, things are being done

Started work, the flight manifest is with the airline who have their contact details. Immigration stamped everyone that came with that flight. They should have contacted these persons and tracing everyone before even announcing it. That’s what was done during Ebola time.

Smh

The better work fast! 😢

Was it not said that we where ready and that the Port Health authorities had been equipped to detect and identify cases of infected persons?Guess they where more interested in wetin you bring for us.

With the way they were lackadaisical about screening at the airport🙄
