Statement by Chief of Staff to the President, on his health status: I am writing to let you know that on medical advice, I will transfer to Lagos later today for additional tests and observation. This is a precautionary measure: I feel well, but last week, I tested positive for coronavirus, the pandemic that is sweeping the world. I have followed all the protocols government has announced to self-isolate and quarantine. I have made my own care arrangements to avoid further burdening the public health system, which faces so many pressures. Like many others that will test also positive, I have not experienced high fever or other symptoms associated with this new virus and have been working from home. I hope to be back at my desk very soon. I have a team of young, professional, knowledgeable and patriotic colleagues, whose dedication has been beyond the call of duty, who continue to work seven days a week, with no time of the day spared.

From: Abdulrahman Kirfi Since they didn’t think it was worthwhile to acknowledge God, God abandoned them to a defective mind to do inappropriate things. So they were filled with all injustice, wicked behavior, greed, and evil behavior. They are full of jealousy, murder, fighting, deception, and malice. They are gossips, they slander people, and they hate God. They are rude and proud, and they brag. They invent ways to be evil, and they are disobedient to their parents. They are without understanding, disloyal, without affection, and without mercy.” Romans‬ ‭1:28-31 CEB‬‬. When I posted that I was on admission and required prayers, it carried multiple messages to both my friends and fans. First, to establish the fact that as a mortal, I am a subject of the inevitable. Secondly, to communicate my condition to them, so as to minimise emotional trauma in an event it’s time for me to exit. Of course they have knowledge that I was sick before bowing out. Lastly, to reinforce the zeal

He said ,It will be a new experience to many of us while observing for the first time Juma'at prayer from our homes in our life time but with strong conviction and believes from the owner of the universe that nothing comes from somewhere except he made it to happen . The misconceptions will be to many but it is only when we agreed that our prophet Muhammad SAW has asked his fellows to pray from home if there is heavy rainfall and a fellow should not be in Congressional prayers if such fellow is in contact with garlic .This and many other cited refer

Quite a challenging week it has been for Nigeria, and, indeed, the rest of the world. Except perhaps in China only, where the affliction started from, figures of Coronavirus infections continue to mount in other parts of the world. Italy and Spain have been particularly badly hit. But as the world reels under the impact of a most pernicious pandemic, a suicide bomber wreaking deadly havocs, merchants of fake, hateful news remain fully at work. Aso Villa, the seat of presidential authority, has been their focus for most of the week. They have kept churning out spurious reports after the other about President Muhammadu Buhari, and some other people who work with him. If you choose to believe them, the President by now has even been evacuated, and is receiving medical attention at an undisclosed location somewhere in the wide world. Breaking news from Aso Villa. That is what you have had day after day. And each time I am contacted to authenticate one story or the other, I tell the enqu

Corona virus was discovered in the Republic of China some months back and now here it is at our door steps that whether we like or not the victims are you and I . What is suprising is the manner some Nigerians have taken this deadly disease for granted without giving a special eye to the current happenings in countries like Italy , USA , Republic of China, Republic of Germany , Spain , UK,The kingdom of Saudi Arabia,Iran and other to many to mention countries of their likes with world class medical facilities and well trained personnel crying for help . To some Nigerians ,It is a time to play politics and religious cards instead of accepting the fact that we are been face with a disaster globally that is gradually reducing our population from over 7bn to an unknown number . I write not because it is the only choice for me for now to call the attention of many ignoramus who think locally and are acting globally .Many redundant who represent nothing with no real future to celebrate the

*IS THE 3RD WORLD WAR HERE ALREADY?* China tried to give USA a run for her money. USA was not happy, she felt threatened because of China's rapid economic growth & rising influence in the world, especially in Asia which has the highest population proportion as compared to other continents. In retaliation, USA fueled chaos in Hong Kong, but terribly failed as China managed to control the situation, prompting think of USA to think of another method. Fearing the consequences of escalation & possibility of military action, the USA contemplated a covert strategy that would be used to destabilize China & Iran which seemed to be working on becoming a great influence in the Middle East, hence diverting the attempts to overthrow USA as the world economic super power, or give Russians an advantage.
