Could This Be The Independence Day Gold-plated Iphone? by jimcaddy(m): 10:34pm On Sep 29, 2013
Guys kindly take a look at this picture and tell me what you think. Though I hear it is an individual who is planning to give them out on Independence Day, October 1st, 2013.



****I wonder why people are throwing jibes. If you look at the heading, I said 'Could This Be?' I wanted you all to decide.. I wasn't certain myself, that was why I put a question mark.

It could be photo-shop, it could be real.

Besides, I went to the Gold and Co company Twitter handle and followed a conversation when someone took them on this issue.

The company said that what was said in the media was mis-quoted.

They clarified their claim by saying the iphones were NOT ordered by the Nigerian government, but it was ordered by an INDIVIDUAL who plans to give it out to people to celebrate the Independence.

Who says that individual can not be Aliko Dangote or any other rich individual in Nigeria.

The company also said that the order was to print the Nigeria Coat of Arms on the iPhones.. Fine this is not the real picture, but there is definitely an order from a certain 'individual'***

Nice job for clarifying it was Photo-shopped. Exactly what a forum is for..

Fustration and hatred will not kill all u gullible haters. Nigerians are not stupid not recognize photoshop, and this is on frontpage. SMH
Stupid bloggers doing anything for traffic

1. Apple is a very proud, stubborn company, their logo will always be there
2. The coat of arms will be encrusted in the gold and not putting stupid shabby label over it.

Looks very much like a photoshop to me. But nothing is impossible in Naija.

Meanwhile, make sure to check the trending topic.

Nigerians especially the youths must begin to subject a lot of these sensational headlines to some form of intellectual scrutiny.

We know for sure that the government had neither sent invitations to 53 countries or shortlisted 53 Nigerians for any kind of award. For who then are these phones been ordered for?

The whole idea is to tilt public opinion against the government as ASUU is currently doing.

So sad that we can be this gullible...

Can't believe some nigerians are buying that crappy lie.
The nigerian media most time spread false news.

Nigerian government aren't importing any phone for independence celebration.
