Elon Musk: Nigerians drag finance ministry for begging Tesla boss for ventilators

The Nigerian goverment is openly begging Elon Musk for help. I am so embarrassed.

Ministry of Finance didn't even write formal letter with letterhead to Elon Musk.

They sent tweet like Ewawunmi looking for Juwizz money.

More than 10 Billion Naira has been donated by corporates and HNIs in Nigeria to combat Covid-19, but the Ministry of Finance & Budget has reduced itself into Bambiala Twitter to beg Tesla owner Elon Musk for equipments.

This country does not deserve me I swear.

Nigeria went to drop account number under Elon Musk page for giveaway.

This is shameful.
After raising over 7billion in donations,
They are still looking for Tesla giveaway.

I just love this government.
Ijoba Sinzu money.

A country that budgeted 37B for NASS renovation shouldn't be asking Elon Musk for ventilators on social media.

Lool it is absolutely fair. They are the ministry of finance. Are we saying there is NO other way they could have reached Elon Musk or Tesla? Plus our supposed Covid fund has so many billions that I have lost count. They can make the order. Let's call a thing a thing https://t.co/7IdIoKEJd7

A unit of ventilator costs 1.8 Million Naira only. Total donations is more than 50 Billion so far yet Ministry of Finance is dropping account number under Elon Musk 's Giveaway tweet. Please where are all the donated money going to?
