I could imagine without Bua and dangotes contributions, its a shame buhari has never contributed personnally anything in his entire years in nigeria, he has never been poor just stingy, may God grant us wealth that will be benefitial to others

I guess this is not about Buhari,now although he has not done well all all over the country,

However, I want to say it's all about CORUPTION,BAD LEADERSHIP and IGNORANCE within kano, it's about Ganduje now,I hope they utilize all these resources given to him by these billionaires very well ,if not ...

It's not about who donate first or how much was donated. It's about efficiency and effectiveness of the donations.

Your #1,000 to hungry people around you can mean more than his 30bn.

I never criticized him but if your thinking faculty is still functioning, you will see a reason for more ambulances than operational vehicles in Kano or anywhere in this covid 19 pandemic period.

I mean no harm. It's not about doing something but doing it right!

Ambulances can to some extent serve some purpose of operational vehicles. Operational vehicles can not serve the purpose of an ambulance in this case.

Dullard, which is more important?

My sensitization to you this morning and its effectiveness to you is more valuable than 20 operational vehicles in this case.

One love

May be u didn't go to school u said why donating alone to Kano, and I told you he donated total sum of N2.5bn to FG. Instead of you to accept you to repent and accept the truth u resorted to abuse as usual. I don't expect most of you guys to have normal senses of acuity cos that's how most of u were raised.

Jokes apart, Buhari is stingy

Probably you quoted the wrong person as a result of your pending issues.

I only raised issues about providing more of ambulances and less of occupational vehicles.

You can track back and apologized because i never mean no harm to you.

Olodo. Will they trek to go do contact tracing or use ambulances for logistics?

Dullard. Will they carry suspected cases with operational vehicles

Ambulance can serve the functions of operational vehicles to some extent while operational vehicles can't serve a function of ambulance. In a covid 19 situation

Is not your fault is your fish brain fault.

Ok if you say its about ganduje, imagine if people were protesting in kano demanding overthrow of government, wont buhari immediately send military to scatter them forgeting that ganduje even exist? But its lives/health so he cares less, doesnt min of health /DSS give him reports of daily actions and preparedness of the state, let me just keep kwayet

temielects:
think bro, not everyone publicize their act of kindness and generosity,some hate it,and I'm sure buhari is one

Ok name one pls,

Its not even about the tax, if they pay it will be looted, same reason why sensible donors are not giving govmnt money but equipment, beds, machines, ambulances etc

4Play:


It also highlights that the rich tycoons pay little tax. If they paid their tax and were not the beneficiaries of rentier-captialism, the Nigerian government would have much better capacity to handle health crises.

Or rat brain

Since you want to be ignorant, I'll take this one time to break it further down for you.
1. An epidemiological response is more than just about clinical cases alone. 70% of the work is in operations - from moving medical supplies and all to contact tracing to community mapping.
2. None is more important than the other. In addition, Ambulances are restricted in their use. Using ambulances for operational purposes as mentioned in 1 above, takes them away from where they are most needed which is moving confirmed cases or referrals.
3. I understand that you may not have the benefit of all the information but none of these people donating are doing ao blindly. It is mostly based on need. Right now, Kano's need isn't ambulances but the need to do as many incidence tracking and community mapping of cases based on the time lag in testing and confirmation.

I'm an epidemiologist by training and that's my 2 cents. I'm not arguing further sir. Be that as it may, they should be conmended for stepping up to support in any way at this time.

Thank you,

On the contrary, thia same man told his staff to stay hone even after the lockdown was called off and promised that no retrenchment will be done. Most of the bua staff i know have been working remotely since 2 weeks before the lockdown. If that isn't a responsible company, I dont know what is.
It seems people don't know that Mr. Rabiu owns the 3rd largest company on the stock exchange or that he is also ranked 3rd on the forbes list of billionaires from Nigeria. Hia Cement company alone is bigger than the biggest bank in Nigeria talk less of sugar and others

Mile18:
nice gesture, but don't fire ur staff after donating, just saying.

Do you know how many health interventions Aliko Dangote, Abdul Samad Rabiu and Jim Ovia alone are sponsoring and building acroaa Nigeria?

Those three alone apend more than some state governments in putting infrastructure for health and education in place across nigeria. Next time, let us exercise our franchise properly and vote wisely so we don't equate private sector Philanthropy to good governance from our elected government

AreaFada2:

Donors know govt officials. They hope ambulances will be more difficult to turn private and steal. But those ambulances will soon be rotting away around hospitals. Money meant for maintenance will be stolen.

We use ambulances to carry dead people, not move the sick to hospitals. Only in Lagos a few other places you see ambulances working at times.

We have no comprehensive health care system. So the sick must transport themselves to hospital or die at home.

These billionaires should better get together to fund free primary care centers say within highly populated Kano. To give free primary care to the poor for free. It's should be govt doing it but they do not care.

Not everybody going to hospital after health conditions are already very poor because of no money and no easy access in the community.

Thanks for the insight. God bless you

Northern wealthy men are giving back to their constituents in a big way. While our Eastern leaders are doing the opposite.

This prayer is very deep.

He's a cheerful giver, God will surely bless him and others richly.

Deep down his heart, he is sad kano indigenes are helping their people, go nd hug transformer!

Should the pandemic get worsened in Kano due poor resources, the world will criticised the indigent billionaires ($) as the government is considered incompetent.

If they paid more tax, they will have stronger incentives to use their influence to ensure it's utilized properly. Part of the reasons Nigerians are docile in the face of endless kleptocracy is that we don't pay much tax. If you hand over a huge chunk of your pay to the government regularly and you keep hearing of misuse/corruption of government funds, the anger it will unleash will be hard to control.

A whole State with just 20 hospitals and thousands of mosques. If not for private companies, I wonder what would have happened.

I'd urge you to make use of your senses brother and not gobble up things people who have never even set foot in Kano are concocting. I am from Kano, and I can list close to 30 hospitals in the metropolis alone; both government and privately owned. Not to talk of the primary health care centres in the remaining 43 local government areas.

This is what I expect others to be doing instead of donating money to FG.

Do we have scientist in Nigeria at all? What about those microbiology guys wearing white in both federal and state universities and what about those once in private universities paying 4million above as tuition fee, what exactly do they teach them in school? What about the so called lecturers, doctors and profs too? So you wanna tell me we don’t have any scientist in Nigeria that can come up with a solution against this virus? So you guys need to wait for WHO to give you license before you act? Since the inception of this disease have never seen or heard about any Nigerian coming up with anything. Always waiting for the world to come up with something. Microbiology, chemistry or whatever should be scraped in Nigeria since they have no use to the society.

Na scam we dey learn for here

You're making me laugh Sir. Do you know Africa uses less than 2% of its budget for research? So nobody should expect anything called scientific innovation from this part of the world, except a few exceptional individuals. I have a friend who studied medicine, but had to stay at home for almost a year before he got a job, and even then he had to bribe some people. Despite the very low doctor to patient ratio in Nigeria. New York alone has more Nigerian medical doctors than any other foreign nationality. Do you blame our doctors for looking for greener pastures abroad? I'm studying biochemistry and I've only touched a microscope once. If you're studying science in Nigeria, you're only reading to pass, unless you're rich enough to enroll in a private university.

gnykelly:


you guys should stop this shit...you guys were all over social media raising fear about Kano last week, this guys stepped up to the challenge.

let me give you a little assignment.
who and where did Emeka offor donate to...

where is the Emoney

Emeka Offor owns Enugu Electricity Distribution Company and it operates in the east therefore there is nothing wrong if he donates in the east.

By the way Emeka Offor made the donation in his personal capacity not through his company!

ismail64:
Dangote and d BUA owner are from Kano State.

Dangote is from Kano, the BUA guy is also from the core north but I'm not sure where exactly but I think Borno State

If the major distributors of their products in the north as you opined why are their corporate head offices and decision making centered located in Lagos?

Why are their biggest factories located in the south?

Why do they themselves live in Lagos?
