"Inhaler now costs up to 40k. The dusty Harmattan is here. Pray for our Asthmatic Brothers and Sisters."
Nigerians react
_@jidifeanyi Government can place such medication and refill under priority medication just like polio vaccine and the rest
_@MichaelOyewole_ God be their help and strength. While Chief Bola is hustling to enter Guiness Book of Records, the Country is sinking more into hardship and poverty.
_@GabrielTari_ That's sad. I pray they get well. ❤️ And also the government should do something about the asthmatic patients.
_@anuforo "Very difficult time now in Nigeria... The economy is choking everyone. Unfortunately, many don't want to talk about this..A country without good Medicare is equal to zero economy, they say "a healthy worker speeds production."
_@TawoseOmotola1 "APC had made things difficult for asthmatic brother and sisters now oooo, may God almighty help them during the coming hamathan season"
_@Iselema It's well oh, the effect of GSK leaving Nigeria.
