Coronavirus Rampage And Nigeria Says No reason for travel ban for now – Minister of Health

Ehinare who was reassuring foreign diplomats of the measures put in place by the Federal government to contain the spread of the virus, said there was no immediate reason for now to impose travel ban.

This is indeed laughable to say the least, if the Italian medical chief, Roberto Stella dies from coronavirus, Spain's Equality Minister tests positive to coronavirus and President Trump suspends all flight from Europe to the United States, and Nigeria's Minister of Health is saying no reason for travel ban on inbound flight from countries with Coronavirus cases,

then it is indeed sad.

Countries with better healthcare systems are placing restriction on flights and trying their very best to limit the spread of the disease but Nigeria is saying there is no reason for fear and suspected cases where hoax.

Who did this to us? In a time where fear and anxiety is highest in the world all over, we are paying with a fire like coronavirus.

When did we get to this level of laxity and lac or responsibility to the Nigerian populace?

If the Minister of Health can be so obnoxious to say such a thing then we can assume that we have no health sector.
