PublicSquareNG We always do catch up. It is now you'll see sophisticated scanners at our ports. Hypocrites will get overzealous. This guy could have been detected soonest had it been Mr. Buhari made this a top priority.

Naturally the man was on a business trip, why was the government not proactive enough to tell him to suspend the trip since Italy already had serious cases?
