End of COVID-19 in Lagos? Thousands of lagosians defy lockdown order and storm the road for Exercise

-

Well, it seem Lagosians are tired of the lock down order placed by the Federal government to help curb the massive spread of coronavirus. After spending about 9 days indoors, many Lagosians are seen to have expressed boredom on their social media handles and have moved to disregard the lock down order placed by the president for everyone to stay at home this period.

This was evident in the Ikorodu area of Lagos state when residents of the Lagos suburb stormed the major expressway that leads to that town to engage in their FitFam exercise, which this pandemic has afforded them to. It should not be forgotten that Lagos, being the industrial capital of Nigeria and the most populated state in the country with about 20 million residents is the most stressful state to live in.

The traffic situation and high cost of living usually have many left inhabitants working extra hours and spending longer time at work so that they can be able to pay their bills and live a little more decent life. But with this development of the rapid spread of the coronavirus around the world and the lock down order placed by President Muhammadu Buhari on Lagos, Ogun and the F.C.T, Lagosians have definitely seen this compulsory holiday as an opportunity to rest, keep fit and get a number of things done.

But in all honesty, this should not be done at the expense of risking the rapid spread of the virus among people. With the social distancing rule clearly stating that people should stay apart observing 2 metres distance, the massive crowd seen in the footage released online showed that all those were highly disregarded.

While not supporting this act, it seem like this Pandemic will end one of two ways. Either they come up with an expensive vaccine or Nigerians get tired of the lock down and resume back to their normal lives. It is more likely that the latter will be the case in Nigeria.

Please stay at home and stay safe.

 We’ve Reached Peak Wellness. Most of It Is Nonsense. by Brad Stulberg, getpocket.com Here’s what actually works. Wellness isn’t that complicated. Illustrations by Marta Pantaleo. Photo by: Illustrations Marta Pantaleo In Silicon Valley, techies are swooning over tarot-card readers. In New York, you can hook up to a “detox” IV at a lounge. In the Midwest, the Neurocore Brain Performance Center markets brain training for everything from ADHD, anxiety, and depression to migraines, stress, autism-spectrum disorder, athletic performance, memory, and cognition. And online, companies like Goop promote “8 Crystals For Better Energy” and a detox-delivery meal kit, complete with “nutritional supplements, probiotics, detox and beauty tinctures, and beauty and detox teas.” Across the country, everyone is looking for a cure for what ails them, which has led to a booming billion-dollar industry—what I’ve come to call the Wellness Industrial Complex. The problem is that so much of what’...

It just wasn’t enough.” Teigen wrote that she and Legend had not previously decided on their children’s names until after they were born; still, for some reason, the couple referred to the unborn child as “Jack.” ...
