The declaration of the Director General of the Nigeria Center for Disease Control(NCDC), Dr. Chikwe Ihekweazu that Nigeria is desperately in need of test kits to curtail the further spread of the coronavirus pandemic has exposed the nature of the appointees of the ‘’Powers that Be’’.
In other words, indecision has exposed the unpreparedness of the Government to curtail the pandemic.
In another perspective, does the Director General mean that Government does not have the financial capacity to purchase the kits or Government is stylishly calling out for donations ?
Lock downs without accompanying palliatives is not only faulty but suspicious .
Ignorance, illiteracy and idleness are among the major obstacles militating against winning the war over the pandemic.
The Federal and Kano state Governments should take the health situation seriously, while other state Governments should learn from unfolding events.
