Why is there no risk of you donating billions to support the Africa you came from. That money Elon Must wasted to buy twitter should have been invested in infrastructure in Africa.

South Africans will be claiming Elon Must because he was born there but the guy has never contributed anything to South Africa.

No sensible person would donate to africa, the wealth we have, we never use am well, at thisage and time some people still want frail politicians... We dont deserve help.

When you make your own "billions" you can decide to donate it all to Uganda ....no one has any right to tell u how to spend your hard earned money.

Poverty kill you there. That's why women will rule this world. We are coming. See this article here. Jeff Bezos ex-wife has donated over 12 Billion dollars in 3 years. She is making an impact. You are there arguing on Nairaland

The secondary school where I did my youth service, they sat on the floor or stood for lectures. They had very few seats. I used my allawee to donate 50 benches and desks to the school. That is a start. What have you done?

Elon Musk and Mr Trump are like true friends with different destinations and agendas!
Hope, Musk will not allowed himself to be used against the American People,for money got a command,you know!
It's on record since he acquired Twitter Accounts,the rate of negative comments have gone spirals and he is not doing anything about it.!
Musk, please ,act fast and do something on that quickly!

Yes, Elon has nothing to do with Africa cos he doesn't operate there. There is nothing wrong with that.

Also, you don't invest in Africa because it is a non-fertile land, but you can only donate there like Bill Gates. It is called service to humanity. The money you put into Africa, just accept that it is gone. Except you invest in pulling out natural resources there like oil companies, and in most cases, they come to do shady businesses. Not also investment, but looting. So, as you wrote in your opening sentence, he can only donate to Africa. And you cannot force him to do so.

But you invest in fertile land. And you can't say he wasted money to buy Twitter yet. You are just saying it cos you don't think like a billionaire.

Elon can't be forced to donate to Africa now because he is still an active CEO. People like Bill Gates who have retired think of that more. Well, Zack of Facebook invests in talents here. So, Elon might do so too. But investing in infrastructure in Africa when he knows the likes of Buhari, Nana Akufo-Addo, Cyril Ramaphosa, etc are going to embezzle it all, I think...only a foolish businessman will invest or donate in Africa's infrastructure. As an active CEO who Elon is, he is more focused where he is making more profits at the moment. Perhaps when he retires, he can set up a foundation and think about investing in poor nations. As old as Warren Buffet is, he is more focused on where he makes his profit because he is still an active CEO. Have you ever heard of Mr. Buffet making huge donations to poor nations?

Poor nations are useless. This is just the truth. They have everything to not be poor, but if you dig deep, corruption is the reason they are poor.

Don't ever invest in poor people. Never. Any money you give to the poor, just forget it. Take it as a donation which you shouldn't even care if mismanaged. Just close your eyes to the money you give the poor. It is a poor decision to invest in the poor and expect returns.

In addition, some businesses are done not because of the profit there, but because they act as a force to pull up the profit of another investment vehicle. Elon wanted to acquire more power, and I think a way is being in charge of freedom of speech.

To be a billionaire, think like one.

Bless you!

Musk ehn
He has been saying this for quite a long time now
I don’t think that can happen anyways
He isn’t the richest man in the world just by money alone so I am sure he has everything figured out and he is guaranteed to have first hand information of any future occurrences so he can take precautionary measures

Those people wey won assassinate him should come and help with many of our politicians causing us pain and suffering in the country!!!

Most of your Politicians are Irrelevant, Lowest Puppets and Non-Threat to the "World Powers"

You people will do the needful to them yourselves by the time they are about to relegate you all Into the Abyss.
