It would have been less shameful if u allow Teaching Hospitals to do this kind of bambiala. If it is to release money for official cars for politician , we wont hear anything here.

Where are the Billions donated? It’s almost a week now. Can they give us breakdown of how it has been spent or how they plan on spending it? Who are the committee members? #WhereAreTheBillions

Again… This brings back the same question I've been asking since last week. What have we done with all the donations made so far?

If the donation figures reported are true, we should be ashamed of this Bambiala-cum National disgrace. https://t.co/ckK0n0X59A
