I just read pretty much all the comments. I don't understand why some people think so negative about Nigeria even when some Nigerian philanthropists wanted to contribute to the nation, needless to say the African continent.

There are other philanthropists around the globe, who have made similar contributions. Yet, the antagonists won't make negative comments about them or their nations. Any example is Mark Shuttleworth (who owns the Shuttleworth Foundation). I am not sure such people know how many brains in Africa (& the other continents) he has supported.

We must also be proud of The Tony Elumelu Foundation. More power to your elbow Tony!!
