Coronavirus: Phone numbers cause problems in Nigerian Airports
Phobia everywhere! The government is afraid! Citizens are afraid! The world is afraid! Most African countries are now seen as the havens (i.e. the places where people can run to with an 80% hope of not getting infected with the pandemic disease, COVID19)
Most African citizens are now dancing to the tune of this song (NO MATTER WHERE YOU GO, REMEMBER THE ROAD THAT WILL LEAD YOU HOME...) Before the travelling ban in most African countries, most citizens have taken swift flights to their respective countries.
But, there is a problem right now in Nigeria, as most of the recently flown in citizens from overseas have refused to drop their correct phone numbers, because they know that the government would look for them to carry out the COVID19 TEST in a no distant time. Right now, the Nigerian Government is complaining as they can't reach/locate such citizens to carry out the appropriate tests on them. The citizens are scare, the government is worried!
A radio presenter complained that this is probably a fault on the part of the government as the test should have been conducted before allowing such citizens into the country, but instead, they gave them a form to fill (if you have cough, tick here. If you have catarrh, tick here, etc. 😂)
Who would click that he/she has catarrh or cough?
Please, let's keep following the preventive measures and let's support and help the government curb this pandemic disease, COVID19.
Stay safe!
