Prior to the arrival of the 15-man medical team from China, many Nigerians including the country health authorities had kicked against the act. some critiques indicated that the presence of the Chinese team would only aggravate the COVID-19 outbreak in the country. Despite the pleas, the Federal Government of Nigeria still went ahead to grant the approval of their intervention and arrival. Oh! What a country! from the popular slogan, Is the Government really for the people or for their selfish motives?!.
After assuring Nigerians that the motives of the Chinese team presence was to help the country at large to fight COVID-19, a statement recently from the Minister of Health is another different story entirely. Ehanire had said that the Chinese medical team was not hosted by the health body, and Hence, it could not account for their whereabouts. Who is fooling who?!, is it the Minister of Health fooling us or the Federal Government?! Who are we to hold responsible?!
The Managing Director of China Civil Engineering Construction Corporation in Nigeria, Michael Yigao, has also revealed that the Chinese medical team are currently at the company's care. according to his statement, the Chinese medical team have only educated the company's staffs and other health education related to coronavirus. Then how have they been helping Nigeria at large!? Nigerians have been fooled all along and need some explanation. Nigeria has recorded more than 6,000 confirmed cases of COVID-19 since the arrival of the Chinese medical team.
