Is Nigeria so poor?


Every State should have a minimum of 250 ventilators each[/quote]

johnmattew:
learn to update yourself...money can't buy ventilators for now,the world is in need of it...USA as a whole got only 160k ventilators for over 220k coronavirus patients

You're the one who needs to update and use ur brain. Will all the 220k patients require ventilators? Besides, elon is in the US. If the US has a shortage as you claim, do you really think he'll send down to the official beggars of the federal republic?
Let me inform you, the US have an extra 10,000 on standby for any emergency need and GE, Tesla and Ford are giant coys producing ventilators massively.
Why can't you get innoson to do same here?

johnmattew:
it's not about the cost ,but the availability.....America and Europe are in serious need of ventilators and the little ones they produce are meant for their citizens....nigerian government is begging Elon musk cos he is african

Hahahaha. Cos he's African. His company is in Africa ba? Or Africa has shares in his loss making company? You better find something better to say to earn your pay. You're not making any sense at all.

Hardeysolution:
This shouldn't be called begging.

1. It was not for him but us Nigerians
2. Check the thread. He asked people to @ him or tesla.
3. Check also, other countries are represented there.

There's nothing wrong at all.

But why do we Nigerians act like this? Just to make a point. Can we just stop being a critic without direction and basis?

Sincerely, it's disgusting how we just do stuffs in Nigeria.

This is a media space... It's between official accounts... It's not online begging

Yeah. It's official online solicitation. Mumu

Elvis778:
I don't really support this government but we have to say the truth when we see one,
Getting ventilators at this point in time is not about having the money,
But getting the goods.... ventilators are scarce these days and you have to beg for it like it's for free even though you still have to pay.....

Innoson offered to mass produce. Why hasn't he being engaged?

chccho:
If only u lads will properly read and digest information u won't be spewing out garbage all the time just like the one u just posted. Go back,read and digest both tweets properly. This young, naive generation are so quick to criticize/ condemn without properly comprehending situations. At the end of the day, all this negative outbursts just exposes your ignorance. How much is all the so called billions of Naira donated when u convert to dollars?? We are dealing with a pandemic here, something that's ravaging the entire world and someone offers help free of charge and all u can spew out in your black ignorant mind is to condemn and call it "audio money" If world powers like the USA, European countries are crying for help then who are u ,a 3rd world country not to jump on a freebie like this Just yesterday the governor of new York was begging for more health workers on live TV. This is a situation of scarcity for Christ sakes even with your billions the commodity is not readily available. Besides even if this man was begging, was he begging for his pocket or to use the ventilators to decorate his house Or to save lives of Nigerians All of u calking him a beggar will go on your naija celeb pages and be begging for money even when there was no corona aren't u worse Its about time people think and rethink more before u speak or react. Education should enlighten you and not otherwise

Seems you're a proud citizen of a beggarly nation

Desperate times calls for desperate action

TaminaliaCatapa:
Hmmm, quick to compare us with the governor of NY, how sick in the brain can you be? Or the same education you claim to have has neutralized your thinking faculty?

For a world power like the US to beg, they have exhausted their financial and physical power...if you ain’t blind, you saw how much was budgeted for every American right? Use ur brain ..e get y

Our government has innoson, innoson apparently claimed they can develop ventilators.

NECESSITY IS THE FATHER OF INVENTION

Have you heard that adage in your ever demented miserable life? We received[b] multi billion funding[/b], why can’t we support our own? Why can’t we grant them research funds or you don’t believe Nigeria has brains unlike yourself?

I don’t wanna say much coz I believe your thick skull is impermeable to knowledge....peace out

It will be unwise for me to engage a bitter,blind, Buffon like u. I have made my point clear and this your last post just further proves it. Next time think before you type #slowpoke

It tends to show that there is no one in charge! Or that people look for any slight chance to CHOP!

How can a faceless ministry staff or PA to the president be making a request on behalf of Nigeria?

Na wa o.

TaminaliaCatapa:
Bro, Elon Musk is not a government oKAY? It’s a Profit Oriented Company! Read!

Ummm Elon Musk isn't a company, he's a billionaire and he's willing to donate, not sell.

TaminaliaCatapa:
But what’s mentally wrong with supporters of these useless leaders?

No guarantee money can buy it ASAP
BUT
Begging would do since there is high demand


So logically you’re saying Elon musk will say
“Due to high demand, beggars to the front” money bags, fück off

Bolded
Yes. He's willing to donate, not sell.

wellmax:
by

First of all, those countries fall into Tesla delivery regions so they meet his requirement. Nigeria does not. Besides, why can't we engage innoson who has offered to build here?

What is shameful is the guy's English. See gbagaun "No matter how much money you get"
Pidgin English don format presidential PA brain. Chai!! And elon will see dis o!!

mtinfx:
Thieves where is all the change buhari promised

Chad is busy pummeling bh with their president leading from the front while our soldiers cry for bread and bullet
Useless rich country living like beggars

Last time.we had a leader was 2015

Idiotic useless drunkard.

Fcck GEJ 1000x

Man that should be SHOT!

InspireWealthB:
Some people will never cease to amaze me with their level of shamelessness.
So because Ukraine, Argentina and whatever country begged for the same online, it is okay for Nigeria to also do the same.
I would even forgive Bashir Ahmed, at least he did it from his own private account and even gave a good reason for the same. But something is definitely wrong with the handler of the Ministry of Finance using the official verified account of the Federal Government to do the same!

Check out the differences between these two reports assuming the both of them are done by CNN today...

"A minister in Nigeria begs Elon Musk via Twitter to donate ventilators to Nigeria"

"Federal Government of Nigeria lines up to beg Elon Musk for ventilators on Twitter"

If the second report no make you shame, you fit pick kuli-kuli from ground inside market chop one day. Nobi say u no get money & opportunity buy, but because u no get single shame. Even as an adult.

Imagine AMERICA lining up to beg for the same with the government verified account on Twitter!

This single act (not just that of Bashir but the FG) will be used to mock you and I as Nigerians forever. You go see am.

To say we can't get this easily after Innoson has said they can produce thousands of it within a short period is somehow. Give the man the support, the money donated so far and hold him to his words!

You know ego filled lots like yourself are the main the reasons the old men aren't handling the countries to commoners like you and I but to their kids right?

Agboriotejoye:
Innoson offered to mass produce. Why hasn't he being engaged?

Unproven, no track record and he'll simply engage a Chinese producer hence making large sums of money for doing nothing (middleman).

U wey dey always beg for data don jazzy page!! Abeg go and sit down, loud mouth

TaminaliaCatapa:
Your IQ is a staggering amount below that of an ape.

Every scientific discovery starts with “its possible we can develop......”

If everything is sure, then research is dead.

Now crawl back to the cave you evolved from, son of a demented bastard

Baba e bastard

MusaChukwudi:

That's according to you. Let's assume you're right. If he can be able to engage a certain Chinese producer, why can't our govt engage that particular producer instead of begging around or is the Chinese man accessible to innoson only?
Use ur brain na

Thank u for stating this out.
Most people here don't even know the difference btw a car manufacturer & assembler. Shior

evergreen9:
Did they beg Toyota for the 400 units of Camry 2020 model and RAV4 2020 model that they ordered last week?

I wish I could just continue to like your comment...e make sense.

Chai! What a Shithole.

lol your dear country my foot abeg elon dont listen to this fool hes only using this as a cheap political stunt he has never cared about his people all he cares is about himself and his other political comrades

[quote author=chccho post=88029009]

I am not a supporter of this administration but anything done to get the ventilators is okay by me.

We are just not being honest in this country and we feel everything is an avenue to criticize the government.

Personally, if someone wants to give you something free of charge and you have the money to pay for it, will you ignore the offer simply because you have the money?

It's okay to criticise the government when they do something wrong but in this case, I am in full support of begging if that's the way we see this request

Agboriotejoye:
Innoson offered to mass produce. Why hasn't he being engaged?

Did he? maybe then we should hold our government responsible, cuz obviously, he won't delay if they accept the offer and pay him in full

Bambiala

We do not even meet the requirements

1. We are not in A Tesla Delivery region

2. It will not be used for patients; rather they will be distributed to government houses

Elon, please do not heed this begging!!! We are not serious

Hmmm
