Shehu Sani Praises Bill Gates for His Dedication to Nigeria Amid Criticism and Conspiracy Theories
Former Kaduna Central senator, Shehu Sani has hailed the humanitarian services of Bill Gates who is currently in Nigeria to intervene in the health sector.
Sani commended the billionaire in a post on his X handle on Tuesday.
“Bill Gates voluntarily chose Nigeria for his charitable work. Rather than being appreciated for his contributions and interventions in developmental issues running in hundreds of millions of dollars over the years, he has been bombarded with all sorts of accusations, doubts, criticisms and series of conspiracy theories.
“Is Bill Gate a friend or an enemy? Recently, a German Coach was invited to Nigeria to lead our Super Eagles, he turned down the offer and gave reasons. A dent on the Image of our country;
“Should we appreciate Mr Gates who believes and sticks with us or not? Ours is a country that is damaged globally as a heaven for internet fraudsters, drug traffickers and money launderers. Mr Gates doesn’t believe in all these and still chose our country.
“Some countries have placed a visa ban on our citizens,some countries deport our citizens and some countries even deny entry visas for our citizens, rubbishing our image internationally. Mr Gates still chose our country.
“Many multinational companies are pulling out of Nigeria for economic and security reasons, Mr Gates is unbothered and remained with us. Other World acclaimed Billionaires chose other African, Asian and Latin American countries,Gates chose to be here.
“For near two decades, Mr Gates and his Gates Foundation have been intervening on matters of health, Education and infrastructure in some of our communities.
“Many US billionaires chose South Africa and Gates opted for Nigeria and yet this ingratitude and smears.
“The man who stood with you in good, bad and worst moments is indeed a friend.”
