NCDC discharged over 10,000 people in 24 hours.
They are done milking donors and want to wrap this up shey? No wonder they are closing isolation centers rapidly. All of you that collaborated to destroy lives and livelihood, your punishment is as sure as d air you breathe.

I never stopped checking NCDC updates on COVID, recently the figures started going down with no explanation(less testing or more positives), now they’re discharging thousands overnight. This is why I really can’t can with this country.

It’s agenda…they want to show low figures so they can fully go back to normal as if nothing happened. Funny, NCDC which should act on scientific basis is political.

Meanwhile, in the last seven days, there has been steady drop in numbers of confirmed cases was observed. The number of cases recorded on July 29 (404), July 30 (481), July 31 (462), August 1 (386), August 2 (304), August 3 (288), and August 4 (304).
However, National Coordinator of COVID-19 Presidential Task Force, Dr. Sani Aliyu in his reaction said the decrease in the number of cases recorded were as a result of the reduction in the numbers of COVID-19 samples collected across the country, especially during the Eid-el-Kabir celebration.
He urged Nigerians to desist from drawing conclusions that the COVID-19 curve of the country had started to gradually wane, based on the decline in cases in the last few days.
