“Two Covid-19 vaccines
The Drugs Controller General of India (DCGI) had earlier this month approved Covishield, the Covid-19 vaccine developed by Oxford University and AstraZeneca, and made by the Serum Institute of India. It also granted restricted emergency use authorisation to Covaxin, indigenously developed by Bharat Biotech”

You can read up and understand why it’s cheaper in India .

Oga he didn't compare anybody to anybody.... Don't you know what comparison is? He made a statement making reference to what happening in India and how Nigeria can benefit from it.... Where is the comparison?

What and what did he achieve in Anambra for 8 years.. I mean infrastructure

He runs business of his father, still invested his STATE FUND in his personal business while Anambra lacks road and infrastructure

.
How quick you people can generate propaganda spread false claims and assumptions. By the way, did you loan his father money, did he tell you not to run your own father's business, what stops you from contesting for governorship and using the money to finance your father's business.

Many people in this faceless forum lack respect. Can you measure with any of his graduate employees in any location of his many businesses. Have u ever paid anyone salary in your life? Do you know the quota he's contributing in alleviating poverty and unemployment in Nigeria. You learn to give honour to whom its due.

Stop whining like a menstruating little girl

The question is simple; What and what did he achieve in Anambra for 8 years.. I mean infrastructure, $100 per barrel allocation, which bridge, airport, modern health centre, stadium, or anything he built

This isn't funny.... We re paying triple the price for almost everything we get in Nigeria

Paying it is not even the problem. The fact that we are collecting loan to pay it is more irritating. Meaning that someone is purposely collecting inflated figures as loan which will affect our children's children in future all because of selfish gain. Peter Obi is good. He proved it in Anambra State. Just didn't root for him during the last election because I know that Vice presidency is a ceremonial seat in Nigeria.
If he comes out as the presidential candidate, will vote for him irrespective of the party.

Don't forget some people have already gotten theirs outside the country, and some people will refuse to be vaccinated, while it will not get to many people. However (150 × 2 = 300) we still have 100 billion left, and even if you talk of logistics which will not be more than 10 billion Naira. The truth is that the government spend unnecessarily in this country.

Governance is generally expensive. Besides, you are forgetting that these vaccine or at least some of it has to be store at a very low temperature..

My dear, sometimes things are just not always that straightforward.

Did you care to find out how much is the Chinese Vaccine/dose? What is the efficacy of the vaccine? Before you beleive any politician who is yet get power, do your research.

The bolded is the reason a lot of us are rooting for peter Obi...

The same way our railway construction is the most expensive in all of Africa despite being constructed on huge loans..

Obi should stop being clever by half.. If they buy the vaccine from India will you agree to take it?

Pfizer vaccine is €25 per 2shots

When they said they will give China vaccine you guys started to make noise that you need the same Pfizer.. Do you think is free? OBI should not play politics with everything.. Even the Chinese vaccines is not cheap.
Moderna is $33 if am not mistaking. The man doesn't know whst he is saying.

Peter OBI and his likes are the link between Nigerians greatness and the opposite. His submission on how to procure Corvid vaccine is Germaine. Peter is practical, affordable and tactical. His yrs as governor of Anambra state in terms of development and good governance has not been equaled. Nigeria is losing a lot by not tapping into the ingenuity of our frugal Okwute. Look at his analytical simplification of vaccine procurement and distribution from India to Nigeria . His saving plans are classic and typical of him. Why waste 400b instead of using his plans and the rest of the savings to plough into our healthcare

India should be more expensive than the chinese because the indians are mass producing for the the likes of Pfizer and astrazeneca.

But when the chinese vaccines cost as much as 400 billion, imagine how much the Euro-american vaccines in india will cost based on Nigeria corrupt procurement.

That is obi's point. He is much smarter than your president and everybody in his govt.

You brought up the issue of comparison where there was none....i understand the point you made above but you re still mixing things up. Obi believe that we can get vaccines a lot cheaper that what the health minister proposed and even said he could facilitate that..... You don't know the depths of his connection but you erroneously assumed that he was comparing Nigeria with India... Read to understand

If they budget millions for Biro, the question you need to ask is if the money was eventually released and what kind of biro( I know because I buy Bic pen and those ordinary branded ones and I assure you that the difference between cost of Bic pen and those other pens will shock you). Please go to a store now and price Bic and the regular biro first.
I am not giving excuses for anyone or suggesting that EFCC should not move in but I will love those raising issues on cost differentials to do so intelligently.






Meanwhile, please visit https://freestuffsng.com/ to get your free stuffs in Nigeria.

You are defending waste and misappropriation.
Book is book, biro is biro.

It should not run into millions under any circumstances even in america the richest country on earth.
Nigeria has the highest percentage of poor in the world. Go to twitter and see how foreigners are mocking your country.

You are asking if they released the money? In this Nigeria?
They budgeted for something and you think releasing the money is the problem?

have you checked the news lately? Chloroquine has been agreed to be much better in treating covid19. The media only disputed it because of politics, now the election is over and he's gone they accepted it. They didn't want covid19 cure to be found until election is over. Even some doctors in the US said the same too and the liberal Twitter censored them.

He nicknamed covid19 chinavirus because a Chinese official openly claimed that covid19 was started from America and was spread by an American. Get your facts right and stop watching liberal media outlets like CNN, New York times and Washington Post. Make some research too.

Goodnight!

It's relatively cheap because it is produced in India. Pfizer would have given them the A to Z on how to produce it.
Or didn't you read the part were it is stated that Nigeria in the 80's was producing vaccine for smallpox, yellow fever etc.
Nigeria never originated or did any laboratory test to produce smallpox vaccine but was guided by the Superpowers. So India is being guided.

The point is his figure do not match because the doses come in 2 shots.. And u must calculate logistics from purchase to end consumer knowing fulling well some are going to have special storage like the Pfizer vaccines. And they are also buying some quantity of Pfizer and other ones so you know..

Do you need to insult him and his Ethnic group for making his point? Peter Obi felt the amount being expended are on a high side and could be whittled down based on robust negotiations. It's left for you to counter him with superior argument than pouring invectives on him and his ethnic group. As Apc buccaneer,you are free to support the party but not based on blinded and hate loyalty. The Mods should take note and evoke appropriate sanctions against posters with ethnic biases and insulting comments.
