70 in Lagos is not what is paining me alone, but the fact that I've been locked indoors for over 3 weeks just because I want to 'stop the spread' and yet the numbers keep increasing!

NCDC always comes to announce these cases in the night so that when we sleep we will forget about it. 86 new cases?!! 70 in lagos!! Does lagos think this is presidential election?

I think NCDC should break down this Lagos result like this

70 new cases
20 Ikeja
10 Lagos
15 Surulere
5 ojodu
5 Lekki
5 Ikotun

People go fear and stay home
