This problem is in so many countries in Africa
Chai, this is so sad. Nigeria must do better.
Don't this country as oil... And don't depend on tourism like my country in the Caribbean... Dam!!!

@@clouds9768 honey test vaccines where you know people are infected . no one dying from covid in africa

How I love to live in the uk
Why? You won't make any money, you'll see tonnes of teen pregnancy and live in a piss poor post Victorian era bedsit!
This comment did not age well. The UK has more cases than Nigeria
A medical education costs between $100k-$200k..offer to payoff or a percentage of their educ for 5-7 yrs service on existing wage...Poor infratructure..now you know what all the foreign aid is for, not self enrichment!.🤔
Lol the audacity of pointing fingers..smh..wonders shall never end..UK of all countries exposing other people's healthcare system??..the joke of the century..Awon Oloshis.
nigerians you will finish yourself
When it comes to africa their news is negative 😂😂😂they don't consider that their country is worse than NIGERIA in covid
BBC stay talking about Nigeria but the reality is America is the new epicenter. Why don’t you guys talk about that? And the fact that COVID exposed the poor US healthcare system. We already knew about Naija
What are you talking about??? The BBC have done several reporta about the current state of America being the epicenter of the Covid 19 pandemic and the sorry state of their healthcare system, much more than what's happening in Africa! Don't talk dumb.
better yet britain has recorded over 40,000 deaths
Hi, due to stopping most flights abroad during lockdown , the wealthy ministers, politicians etc.
can get a glimpse how the ORDINARY citizens suffer , hopefully repent and start to improve the Nigerian health care system as if their life depends in it, because their life depends on it.
Greetings
Nigerian government alone na genesis of confusion.
At least they have Burna Boy, lol.Seriously back up Nigeria. Good luck from Ghana
What about maternal health care, is that dealt with well. Also, can women choose how many children they want or is there a law saying if they are married, they have to ask their husband first. Hopefully the health care system in Nigeria is improved.
@yellow Oh okay, I watched something else the other day when a lady said that the hospital said that the women have to ask their husbands.
@yellow I meant birth control , and stopping having pregnancy. I watched something like a month ago where a lady said that women have to have their husbands permission to stop having or not have any children.
@yellow oh ok , well i think the person that can get pregnant is always in charge of if they want to get a baby
@yellow ok
Its Nigeria.....was it ever in doubt that their systems were substandard? We sent billions in aide before corona so it's not a shock they have no infrastructure to handle a pandemic

Far much better than American.
The narrator sounds like she learned American english (not British english) and returned to Nigeria, she speaks English fluently, but her enunciation is poor and she speaks quickly, therefore it makes some of what she's saying sound unintelligible, subtitles would help.
That's a 'clear' Nigerian accent. Yeah, maybe subtitles would have been good.
who the fuck are you...that accent is as clear as it sets..its a fantastic Nigerian accent...we don't need subtitles when Americans or British speak their poorly enunciated Enlish and we definitely do not need subtitles for this lady. Fuck off
@@tosinojo7310 I'm a native English speaker, of african descent who's concerned about the spread of covid-19, and feels NOTHING for ur national pride... Once again her narration was ABYSMAL especially considering her obvious fluency in english.
@@Mr.aAdDies You are a Native English speaker of African descent???....loool wtf does that even mean.....Native English speaker my left arse cheek. So you don't have an accent? you are accentless? if you cant understand other peoples accent, watch things narrated by only people in Birmingham. I have lived most of my life in Britain, and comprehending different accents is an invaluable skill, given that you can't walk for 5 mins without hearing a strange accent. I suggest you acquire that skill. innit
Shut up! You can't even write the word English properly and live in your parents' basement. What a judgemental moron you are.
This is rubbish total nonsense
