Why Covid-19 News Has Been Delayed


Why Covid-19 News Has Been Delayed
He is being the spokesperson
Of the government is
Approached by the journalist
To know why government
Delayed in locking state down


He started by sharing
Experience of what happened
Decades back when terrorists
Invaded a neighboring town
Close to the capital

Someone close to the
Government suggests to media
That the city should
Be locked down to
Prevent terrorists entrance to city

I Was not in the government
Then but on hearing
This the people within
Neighborhood without verifying the
Report started acting weird

They cannot be controlled
As fear griped people’s
Hearts for the messages
Carried by some were
Not in tandem with the message aired

I know my people
I know how they
Think you, members of
Press ought to know too
That illiterate people abound

There are people who
Would carry false information
To create panic, while
There are people who
Would not think right

When fear is developed
In the heart of people
Those who would injure
Themselves and or die
Because of the panic situations

Would be more than
Those who would be
Screened positive for
The test, for some due
To ignorance would think


Such disease gets contracted
Through air, they would
Think it is flying
In the air and
Would rest on anyone and everyone

Some would think the
World is about to
Be destroyed. These and
Other weird developments
Should be prevented from happening.

Therefore, the news is paused
Ensuring that the needed information
Are gotten and subsequently shared
Across through media and use
Of town criers at rural settings

To pass across correct
Messages to ancients and
Youngs that they may
Know that they have
Not been sentenced to death

With what has been
Set in motion I
Am confident that there
Won’t be panic situations
As people would respond well

Statistics of the samples
Gotten have confirmed this, my
People would come out
Strong and better of this
For it’s well handled.
