Coronavirus memo
It is with great pleasure and sense of fulfillment that I forward to you another of my series of reports on our ongoing battle against humanity. Coronavirus and the disease it causes, COVID-19, have struck fear into the hearts of millions of men and women across the globe. The global economy is in a state of paralysis. Key sectors of economies in rich and poor countries have shut down. Businesses have collapsed at an unprecedented rate.
I am also happy to report that, despite the country’s rich natural pharmaceutical endowment with one of the world’s largest variety of plants and herbs that could be utilized to fight our virus with diligent investment in education and research, Nigeria’s leadership is waiting lazily for the developed countries to develop a vaccine and cure for our disease.
Lately, Trump has been forced to admit that the destructive effects of our virus in his country is likely to worsen before getting better. He has even begun occasionally to wear face masks and also urging his fellow citizens to do the same. Even then, our formidable battalions of Coronaviruses continue their deadly onslaught on America even as that country’s fearsome land, sea and air war arsenals watch on helplessly.
What countries like my primary area of jurisdiction, Nigeria, do not know is that even if a vaccine or cure is found for our virus in the advanced countries today, it is unlikely that cynical and self-centered leaders like Trump or Boris Johnson will allow such remedies to be available to the vast majority of the peoples of the world.
