Why will any foolish Nigerian scientist want #36million for discovering the cure to Corona virus when they can walk into Novartis, Pfizer or even takeda and walk away with at least a $million

OChimex:


Your suggestions are perfect, but that is for the long term anyway.

Coronavirus needs urgent remedy and challenge like this can bring that quick result, Some people love challenge and will go beyond miles to prove they are the best.

Take for instance promise 20 million to first class graduates of any university in the country and see the number of first class graduates multiply by 10.

In Europe, challenges like this is the mother of incredible inventions.... e.g. The big clock on the London Bridge or something etc....


Point of correction, they only need a rat or something to test a new medicine, not human.

He has put both short and long term facts into that statement of his. I am of the opinion that you lack the scientific mind to analyse this hence your lack of comprehension of simple basic scientific methods and facts.

Clueless FG.
Why don't they send lai Mohammed to go and bring back the virus for the scientists to have a sample to work with and on.

and why do you think Nigerian Scientists don't have the sample. The Science community is a global one just like in academia where knowledge is shared among scholars. The new virus is being studied all around the world by independent researchers, government funded researchers and private funded. WHO has shared its knowledge of the virus to all the countries of the world and research is going on in identifying more about the the Virus and creating a Vaccine...Lai Mohammed don't have to go and get the sample, the way you guyz talk here

Egba mi o. This Govt sha wan wipe us out in Naija. How would they discovered the Vaccine if the Virus is not brought into Nigeria?

rottennaija:
That's misplaced priority. First of all, how will they test the efficacy of their discoveries? And how will they know it works unless the have an infected patients or the sample of the virus to test it with? How will they get the virus sample to test? You will end of having people who work for their selfish interest thereby working against the interests of the general public.

This is an unworkable solution.

Why not call for the assembly of the best scientist and biochemist in Nigeria, give them a good lap, feed them, provide 24 hrs electricity with the best electronic gadgets and laboratory equipments and have them work together towards having a solution to the virus?

Common, who advises these people self? They need better advisers.

Exactly my thought. No mind those set if dumbos�

This government is myopic and without sense.

Well said

Way to go! Though this should have come earlier.

Thumbs up 2 d Minister of Health.

Thumbs up for what ..are you okay so?

As people r abusing the minister, I am appreciating him for putting a challenge to our Nigerian scientist, that's how a nation progress.

Stupid man why not offer the money to who can fix our electricity problem

What happened to finding a cure to Lassa fever which has killed over 100 this year alone? The man is a joker

A WISE SCIENTIST WILL HAVE THE AGREEMENT SIGNED FIRST AND THE MONEY GIVEN BEFORE RELEASING THE VACCINE TO THE GOVERNMENT

first step is to get the viral sample which implies bringing it down to Nigeria. with our carelessness, if the sample steps out of the lap then we should prepare to see the worst

Where are the labs to work?

That's no money to me. Make it 36million dollars and i will release the vaccine right away.

I laughed in French Montana Melissa.

We haven’t found a solution to bokoharam, poor health system, bandits, poor social amenities and we are here talking hypocritical trash about cure for a virus we don’t even know 4hand about.


Nonesensical nonesense.

Misplaced priority, what we need is to provide our scientist with the best work station, the best lab that can be comparable with what is obtainable in the US, EU and UK as well as good pay to go with it. In addition grants should be made available on a continuous basis for scientist to come out with innovative solutions on round the clock basis not this 'WHO WANTS TO BE A MILLIONAIRE BY FRANK EDOHO' we should learn to put the horse before the cart, Nigerian government don't seize to amaze the world.

Huge lie. Do you know that indomethacin a blood thinner and a NSAID kills rats. While rats may help in a pilot experiemnt of such a project it is not enough for a conclusion and you cannot administer a medication to treat an illhealth just because rats were cured.

Officially Nigeria leaders are incompetent. That's why all the laws are just copy and paste

Serious matter

I smell exploit

Temptee101:


Our leaders nor just get sense

Where will our so called scientists get the sample from?

And How do they test the efficacy of the drug?

Useless FG, una never produce toothpick finish e come be covid 19 vaccine

Misplaced priority at it's best

Who made the jester the minister of S&T? He clearly does not know what scientific research entails. May we be delivered from him and his likes...

I'm just dey talk, him no say Nigerian no go fit find am

Openbusiness:
Ordinary N36m for

a virus that has put China in quarantine,
a virus that made America declare a national emergency after just 3 cases,
a virus that Europe is shutting inbound and outbound flights over,
a virus that has reached 5 out of 7 continents in 2 months...?

If i found the cure, maybe i'll wait till three-quarter of Nigeria is infected and then we can negotiate whether you can pay me $300 trillion USD in cash or you sell Nigeria to me for the cure and all Nigerians relocate and leave the country for me and my sugar baby . I will mine and extract all your natural resources from every single corner of the land, then re-sell the remaining skeleton graveyard to the Chinese for another $300billion USD as their dump site. Because once a shithole, always a shithole. Can't build a paradise on accursed lands. I will go buy off Eritrea and Ethiopia and build a paradise there. The End

Really funny.

I won't even consider buying this dump for chips.

They themselves are virus.

FactBoyz:
Hey people! even if you get the vaccine of the corona virus, DONT EVER SHARE THE INFO WITH FG.. LOCATE WORLD HEALTH ORGANIZATION AND PUT YOUR PRICE AT A BILLION DOLLARS.

Meanwhile, a scientist was interviewed recently on CNN about their progress in making a vaccine and he said, it would probably take them 6 months to develop one!

36M naira my foot. Not even dollars

What kind of clueless people do we have ? How can you discover something you have no clue about? They don't have a lab sample of the virus and you want them to discover the cure?

SarkinYarki:
Very Stupid man why not offer the money to who can fix our electricity problems

Bros, you're a patriot!

Our leaders don't even think we have problems let alone think about solutions.

How many of the lingering issues have they given monetary enticement or such priority to?Have BH and other armed bandits not been claiming lives all along?

See poverty and ineptitude staring us in the face everyday and the leaders just fly around like mosquitoes disturbing us with budgets that yield only hardship.

Some news only provoke one's sanity sef
