Read this investigative report by TheCable.ng:
As it was getting dark, a masked medical doctor who was examining TheCable reporter at the Yahaya Memorial Hospital, Ankpa, Kogi state, held his gaze at his latest patient. After a couple of more questions, the middle-aged doctor reclined to his armchair and, with a deep breath, admitted he was worried that the symptoms were very much like those of the coronavirus.
“But didn’t they say there is no coronavirus in Kogi?” the reporter asked.
“Who told you?” the doctor immediately cut in, drawing his seat a little backward as if he was now trying to keep the two-metre distance that he did not bother about earlier.
“Are they testing? The chief judge died of COVID. Was he not in Abuja that they managed him?”
“But if there is coronavirus, it will be obvious, people will be falling sick,” the reporter asked, to which the doctor confirmed that people are indeed falling sick.
“And the rate of deaths is high. You don’t know? People are dying everyday, generally (not just in Ankpa). More than the normal (rate).”
He then looked up to a nurse standing by his table: “Are people not dying anyhow?” to which she nodded in the affirmative.
“They are dying o, plenty. In the villages, you go hear say this person died, that person died. Them dey die plenty now. That is the worry. The rate of death is high now,” the doctor lamented, before returning to the reporter’s medical document as he wrote down the tests needed to be done.
They should do the needful please.

ReplyDeleteUnliked by Yahaya Bello and other Government officials.
ReplyDeleteAnd they don't believe this virus is real.
ReplyDeleteShebi that their end time governor said that Covid is a hoax, meanwhile, he was wearing facemask that day!
ReplyDeleteOne of the worst thing that can ever happen to anyone is to lie to one's self!
Oya, let those who have/share same views as the governor please tell us why people are dropping die like flies.
Malaria?????????
Let's continue lying to ourselves ụnụ anọ go???
Where's Yahaya. How did he even became a governor?
ReplyDeleteHis people voted for him.
DeleteThey didn't vote anything...it was rigged. You're not even correct or current with your info. Wow 🙄
DeleteOga Yahya Bello do the needful.
ReplyDeleteHmmmmm, Nawa o, people protect yourselves ooo. God have mercy on us
ReplyDeleteHunger follow for wetin dey kill them. Kogi state is impoverished, most of them are dependent on salary and the salaries have not been paid to some for months, those that are being paid is a percentage. Before Lockdown lots of families withdrew their children from schools cos thru couldn't afford to pay school fees. People were just slumping and dying anyhow cos of lack of money to feed and treat themselves well. A lot of people in the village are even faring well than the government workers. The situation is pathetic in kogi. Someone should call Bello to order abeg.
ReplyDeleteHa! That state has one of the most useless and insensitive Governor. They are good in making jazz you know the jazz (fetish)to affect another not to improve themselves. I spit!.
ReplyDeleteThe thing is ...Bello does not pay salaries and when he does, it's piecemeal. If he declares a lockdown he has to pay or the people will die of hunger. So he'd rather lie than admit that there is Covid 19 in
ReplyDeletehis state even if it means watching people die.
This was from someone on the inside.
It is well
Who told you Hello does not pay salary ? You don't live in that state, stop saying what you don't know.
DeleteI can only blame him for what's going on right now because he said Coronavirus was not in the state.
He doesn't pay salaries...I have been there. I have dashed monies even a comment ahead of mine said the same thing.
DeleteYou don't need to reply every comment you know. Sometimes u sound smarter when u dont say anything ✌️

Bcos their gov is a young healthy man that was able to recover quick from Coronavirus, he concluded that it's not in his State or a mere scam.
ReplyDeleteHold the governor responsible, he said no covid 19 in the state..
ReplyDeleteBello should be held responsible.
ReplyDeleteOh!!!! YAHAYA Bello. How could you?
ReplyDeleteThis is scary, God please heal my mum, she has been sick with terrible cough for more than two months.
ReplyDeleteEverything will be alright with your sweet mom in Jesus mighty Name. Amen
DeletePray for kogi
ReplyDeleteAnd Give. Yeye Bello said there is no coronavirus in Kogi state, posterity will judge him for his evil deeds to Kogites throughout his 8 yrs of misrule. Nwa mpki
ReplyDeleteI pray the governor comes out of self denial and act fast.
ReplyDeleteSmh
ReplyDeleteYahaya Bello should be held responsible. What happened to his app?
ReplyDeleteThe most irresponsible governor and its so sad he is such a young man.
When “they” pick a young person for office it’s usually a member of the “pampered brats” club,scions of the thieves in goverment and their cronies. It seems that state governor is in that category. Those doubting if he pays salaries must not be reading newspapers. This man was owing some people up to a year salary! I know a couple that pays teachers in their hometown school from here! From their hard labor here while their allocation disappears between their shallow senators and imposed governors! And he can sleep at night.
ReplyDeleteIt looks like politicians and their cronies use their rituals to hypnotize Nigerians while Yahoo Boys use theirs to hypnotize lonely oyinbo women into believing that they have so much in common and even love cats as pets! It’s all Yahoo in different forms!
