young man’s device 7’t be of much assistance in any isolation ward. That is not a mechanical ventilator. He is misinformed and do not have any clue what a ventilator is and what it does.

His machine is a manual resuscitator. It can be part of an emergency resus box. If you are performing a basic life support, that device can be used to give oxygen to the patient.

Ventilator is more complex with micro processors and we should be careful what we support and introduce into our health care system. Even the top end ones when used by highly trained medics can still harm the patient.

Ventilators aid breathing in patients who are very poorly and can’t without assistance. It gives measured amount of O2 and take out CO2. I don’t even think that Innoson has the capacity to provide a good ventilator at this time...take into account that the vital aspects of this machine need to be sterilised. The tubes that go into the patient can cause secondary health problem to the patient....Any ventilator whether INNOSON’s or Bayero Uni’s need to be very rugged and robust to withstand Nigeria’s fluctuating and unstable electricity/power.

Covid virus attacks the lung’s cilia which prevents build up of mucus. A ventilator helps to prevent that and it must be good enough to work efficiently delivering air.

You are in no position to determine what he can and cannot do . The same innoson with very little capacity is the one GTB a whole corporate entity went into his account to steal funds from.

Even if he assembles parts from china, is the end product not a car?

The main point here is that government has to reach out to know what he needs to support in the production. Does he need to fly in more chinese partners? Does he need waivers to bring in parts?

Nigeria is so unstable, ventilators cost much and it's not something you jump into producing for government. They could end up taking it on credit and wont pay after the pandemic.

There is alot that goes into such and he knows why he is making himself available if the government needs assistance.

The UK government placed order for 10,000 ventilators from Dyson. They started to work on it after Boris Johnson called the owner of the company to request. Their major product is not ventilators, but they had to on request of the government. That's how things are done.

You dont sit in the comfort of your room producing nothing and determine what someone who started from scratch to build a multibillion naira business can and cannot do.

This is beyond you.

Have you seen BUK’s ventilators?
Look before you leap. See before you conclude.

Lol like he is the only one gtb steals from....ps there are mechanical ventilators that can be built and produced easily....which is what the University is trying to do.....if you dont believe me Google Virgin ventilator design or funfere koroye who is even Nigerian....these are people who have designed and built ventilator prototypes to help provide a solution....meanwhile innoson that has not put screw and bolt together is asking for 4billion.....lol.

Stop this defeatist mentality!
Dangote saw the vacuum,
he made a plan,
mopped up his personal cash and some cash from some close friends/allies,
Approached the banks for massive loan with his plans.
Govt saw an opportunity and keyed into it!!!

What has innoson done concerning his ventilator project?

PS; I'm igbo before you start with tribal slurs!

PHAYOL81:


Don't dumbly bring Lagos into this. The BRT you talk about are produced in Lagos and the state even has a partnership deal on each produced unit. The state has her numerous car plants and/or makers who pay direct tax to the coffer, why would she patronise any other from some other state other than the ones in her domain.
Sometimes I just feel I can't deal with the subpar level of some people IQ here.

Imagine this response coming from FG spokesman to Innoson. Comparing a private company to a govt funded institution.

modify your Dyson story to the fact that Dyson produced a prototype, before orders were made..... I don't see why there is an issue here. If you can do it, produce at least one or two and the orders will fly in.

This is not tribalistic it is basic business. If not every company that assembles anything will ask the FG for 4bn to produce ventilators.

If he really can do it, he should produce a prototype and present to the FG. If it is rejected without concrete reasons only then can we begin to condemn them.

And he should act fast, because while he is waiting for the Govt, someone else is preparing a prototype

No serious businessman makes such huge investment for a demand that could be over in less than 4 months except the company wants to go into such production for a long term which is not the case we are having. You dont build refinery because NUPENG is on strike and fuel is scarce, that's what you are asking Innoson to do.

The demand for ventilators has a very short span and very unpredictable, only a guaranteed order can make any serious company make such a huge investment in it. That also explains why it's still scarce otherwise every Tom Dick and harry will divert to it in other countries.

GM can now produce because Trump has given an order. Why haven't Toyota and Honda started? It's simply because they haven't gotten a concrete order and Japan is not in dire need of it like Nigerian.

Dangote had already started building his refinery.

He had already received loans from his banks.

The government is right even the USA would buy Innosons ventilators, so what is he waiting for?

Sterope:
FG cannot give N4bn to Innoson. You don't even know what Innoson is planning. You don't know what is going on but FG should give out N4bn because Innoson said so. We don't know the details of Bayero's production. Let's not assume.

Innoson knows the government. They ahve worked together in the past. Nothing about this present issue is bigotry except for overzealous bigots who are used to seeing bigotry everywhere.

Agboriotejoye:


I still insist he's an idiot. Since Bayero is now producing, let FG give them the 4bn innoson is asking for to expand production. With that there won't be any need to beg Elon.
This guy is a barefaced liar that's where I'm going. When did Bayero develop an air compression factory that they're producing ventilators. They might be THINKING of doing so but definitely not doing it. If they were, and this govt is not helping them expand to meet at least half of our demands, then the govt is more stupid than I thought.

but the point is BUK did not ask for money first

Tpave:
I think he is right this time

rusher14:


Innosons does not produce ventilators and hasn't even produced a prototype. Yet you want government to just credit him with some baloney 4 billion Naira because he says he can make it.

Na wa o.

PHIPEX:
Did FG ask Dangote to refine some litres of fuel first before he got govt backing to build refinery? Govt should always support critical sectors, that's how countries grow not by begging.

Fariq:



He is waiting for the government to beg him, so that they will have something to chestbeat.

They will even one day in the future claim that; "if not for Innoson, Nigeria would not have arrested the coronavirus outbreak".
