A Nigerian nurse has expressed dismay that the lack of trust many Nigerians have for government officials has made them to believe that COVID-19 is not real in Nigeria.
It all started when a Twitter user expressed doubt and accused the Nigeria Center for Disease Control (NCDC) of inflating the numbers of COVID-19 cases in the country.
The Nurse lashed out at the Twitter user and narrated how she witnessed the death of two Coronavirus patients at an intensive care unit and also saw the corpse of two other Coronavirus patients being wheeled out.
She added that the issue is that most Nigerians do not trust their government and do not believe the Covid-19 numbers announced by NCDC, warning that Covid-19 is real and that the numbers being seen actually do not reflect the true state of Covid-19 in Nigeria, stating that there are more cases than are being announced.


The nurse noted that as they increase testing capacity, one should expect more cases, and advised that even if they do not trust government, they should please stay safe.
