No Comments on Lockdown by Greech Psalms mgms

As I’ve watched the streets thru this glass wall.. Sadness envelops my world… Nobody walking on the streets … No jeepneys, buses and private cars busy moving around… No children playing in the park…. No more restaurants to dine in … No more shopping malls to buy something… No more bookstores selling my fave book […]

No Comments on Leadership and Nigeria’s Covid-19 situation

As of March 29, confirmed Covid-19 cases in Nigeria rose to 111 and counting. The sad reality is that African leaders are not doing enough to prevent the virus from spreading further.

Update on Covid19

The World Health Organisation (WHO) asked African leaders and health institutions to prepare for the worst. I’m afraid, African leaders are doing little or NOTHING to prevent the spread of the virus.
