They are donating to the government and not Nigerians

Nigerians living in Nigeria are the ones paying for whatever they need

The ones we recognize is the one given to Nigerians directly.

I wish they could have just sent it directly to the hospitals/isolation centres, especially in high burden states.
Govt cant be trusted.

While this act is applaudable, it is condemnable.
Any donation to this present Nigerian government is a total waste because masses will not benefit from it even though it's not something edible.
The Nigerian Yankees could have possibly assisted home-based Nigerians that are close to them who have no sufficiency.

Nice one anyway.

It's not bad if it goes to them. You and i would survive with or without their palliative. The Northern youths are the most disadvantaged in Africa in all areas of life and no thanks to their forefathers who said education cannot be free. Instead of investing in western education which brings about the foundation of the life we live on earth, they went ahead and built mosques here and there and focused mainly on Islamic education when our southern leaders counterbalanced the 2. Their leaders blindfolded them deliberately, so they'd never be emancipated enough to challenge them for riding them Meanwhile, all their children were enjoying western education abroad with federal govt scholarships. Without the free education enjoyed by my dad up to standard 6, he wouldn't have valued education so much that he trained all of us with yam proceeds.

North are the reasons we are suffering in Nigeria as a nation. With what we see their youths do to them, their wicked past has begun to haunt them

This is a very timely and innovative gesture, but 48 million naira worth of COVID-19 supplies will not flatten the epidemiological curve...
