NigerianEye findings revealed that a gold-plated device costs between £3000 and £50,000 (N750,000 to 12.5 million)
The CEO of MALIVELIHOOD company that customised the the phones - Michael Awolaja, must have made billions over-night on the phone contract. BABA God make my time come, so I go chop national cake too !!
ReplyDeleteTHIS is how the missing $20 billion goes.
ReplyDeleteOnly in nigeria do you see such exuberant,unthoughtful and utterly unnessessary waste of our tax money.when there are so many poor people in this country?I'm not even interested,cos its revolting #God will jugde them all
ReplyDeleteSpend our money yanfu-yanfu........God dey o
ReplyDeleteObviously d fones were nt bought with salaries but d nation's monwey
ReplyDeleteOgbeni Jonathan...spend our money wisely ooo....The poor are crying of hunger ooooo
ReplyDeleteThis is absolutely rubish when millions of Nigerians are out there dying and suffering.
ReplyDeleteOf what sense does this contribute to what people are going through in the country. Hmmmmmmm. God judge them all. Yours truly Mr. Fix it.
This nonsense MUST STOP!!! The greatest tragedy is that this naked display is made by a man who Nigerians voted for because he grew up 'having no shoes'. The millions that now have no shoes are slowly losing their feet, while those who have are being given the more they do not need. There is a madness creeping into this man and his family, and we watch how the gods will make them pay.
ReplyDeleteThis madness has to stop. The tragedy here is that this same GEJ was the proverbial 'man without shoes' who was then given the keys to the store to manufacture and distribute shoes, but ends up selling the store and distributing the proceeds to friends and family. The gods have chosen to make this family mad, and the rest will surely follow.
ReplyDeleteShow of affluence in the land stricken with hunger, sickness and insecurity. They can never be peace in a land so rife with inequality.
ReplyDeleteAnd me too O. Amin
ReplyDeleteI will do same for my children IJN
ReplyDeletewow, this is a total waste of money. for all we know he spent the national funds for such extravagance, and the problem here is that the people he is distributing these phones to dont even need it. imagine how many people N750,000 to 12.5 million (which was spent on one so called phone) can feed.
ReplyDeleteStop talking rubish.all of U will still vote GEJ again into d seat.so why do U make sily comment?allow him to enjoy d money
ReplyDeleteSome of you there are talking trash and it will be good if you can grow up .
ReplyDeleteThis is why our youth turn to crime. How much can they tolerate?
ReplyDeleteWell everything that has a beginning must have an end! There is end to everything under the sun. Fine GEJ may act whichever way he likes but he should have in mind(if the article above is true) that this acts are un called for, all this african show off or mentality must stop as a leader u have to lead by example! Well I can no see the reason why Madam Allison decided to maintain and keep 3 planes for her personal usage.
ReplyDeleteThis is madness, it can only happen with stolen money. A man that worked hard for money can't do this, when you have millions of unemployed gradutes, God will judge.
ReplyDeleteVANITY UPON VANITY . ALL IS VANITY. JONATHAN U ARE ONLY BEING WICKED TO UR OWNSELF. REMEMBER, GOD IS WATCHING & WILL JUDGE U FOR ALL THESE WASTE
ReplyDelete@umo,iphone5 is jus 150k and nt 12.5million.
ReplyDeleteDid u not read that this one is gold plated and not just that, customised? U know hoemuch gold costs?

ReplyDeleteWhen the news had it earlier in the year of the plan by the FGN to buy Gold-Plated iPhones for vanity distribution at the centenary celebration, the two-mouthed Reuben Abati came out to debunk such claim (of course what do you expect of a journalist, writing to criticize governments just to gain attention and an invitation to come and "chop"). Now all eyes can see the truth! The Yorubas say, truth will eventually prevail over falsehood, even if it takes 20years. God will surely save Nigeria, but we also must rise up against such evil lavishness as this. Every right-thinking Nigerian must condemn this!
ReplyDeleteIt is unfortunate, especially coming from public office holders. But isn't this our culture as a people, stupendous spending in parties
ReplyDeleteCan this phones receive calls from Nokia 3310, or the cheapest N1000 phones? Or will they be selective of the calls to answer ?
ReplyDeleteCheeeeeiiiiiiii,infact in my next life my mother must be the first lady of a state with future prospects of being the first lady of Nigeria if not,I no go agree comot
