Reacting to a speech delivered by Bil Gates at Aso Rock today, Nigerian common sense senator, Ben Bruce describes it as 'timely and well said'.
Ben Bruce tweeted, 'the shots fired by Bill Gates at Aso Rock today were timely and well said. This government has spent three years blaming the previous administration and not enough time preparing its own economic plans and implementing them. It took a foreigner to say this truth to power. Kudos!'.
'We have been saying these same things for years. When we say them, we are called wailers. But @BillGates is not a politician. He is not a wailer. He is a friend of Nigeria who has spent $1.6 billion of his own money trying to help poor people in Africa and particularly in Nigeria'.
Bill Gates in his speech was quoted to have said, 'Nigeria is one of the most dangerous places in the world to give birth, with the fourth worst maternal rate in the world ahead of only Sierra Leone, Central African Republic and Chad. One in three Nigerian children is chronically malnouriahed. I believe the Nigerian primary health care system is not adequately funded. But it also doesn’t get the most out of its current funding'.
