Fredrick Nwabufo: It’s been three months, where are Trump’s ventilators promised Nigeria
will do anything for ventilators’’. On May 21 while touring the Ford Motor Plant in Michigan he summarily ballooned the figure of the medical equipment to 1,000. It has been three months since this pledge.
“We will be backing you, but try getting it yourselves. Point of sales, much better, much more direct if you can get it yourself,’’ Trump told the governors during a conference call, according to the New York Times. But why are there no specifics regarding the medical items? There is zero detail on who is paying for the supplies and when they will reach the country. Even Mary Leonard, US ambassador to Nigeria, appears to be confounded. Speaking on the ventilators in May, she said: “I don’t have an arrival date or specifics about it.’’So, could it be that there is unsettled business concerning who pays for the medical equipment? I do not think Trump has milk of magnanimity in him.
