In his capacity as Chairman of the ECOWAS Authority of Heads of State, President Muhammadu Buhari, this morning, directed the Honourable Minister of Foreign Affairs, Geoffrey Onyeama to undertake an urgent mission as his Special Envoy to Guinea Bissau, in the company of ECOWAS Commission President, Jean-Claude Brou.
President Buhari had in response to an urgent request for assistance by the Government of Guinea Bissau graciously approved support to the country’s election process including three hundred and fifty units of electoral kits, ten motorcycles, five Hilux vans, two light trucks and Five hundred thousand US Dollars .
This vital assistance ensured that legislative elections held in Guinea Bissau, which should help in stabilising the country. In a separate development, Nigeria’s Foreign Minister will also undertake a mission to Cotonou, Benin, to deliver a personal message to President Patrice Talon from President Buhari.
The visit is in the context of the brewing political crisis ahead of April 28, 2019, legislative elections in the country.

Is this man for real. Does he mean that we are okay enough to give out $500k. There are loads of things he could do with the money in our country😠😠😠. Stupid man
People are hungry in your own country, but you can't feed them and you have the one to share iam not surprise God dey
Our security agencies do not enough vehicles to assist them to combat crime and this .... PMB is donating vehicles? Am ashamed of these men. Shaking my head
You can’t feed your people! Ur giving money that could be used for health care to buy cars for another country.... Mumu!🤔
Yes I know its good to help others in need. But what's the use of helping others if you can't help yourself. You're donating money up and down to countries... But your own country is still having challenges is many sectors. ..las las 'common sense is foreign to some people'
Very good Mr president, keep it up
just one word to describe Nigeria and her largesse : Eze - omekaozodi
My take is that at the end of day this Guinea people will forget that we're the master
Jesus
It is only God Almighty Lord Jesus Christ can deliver Nigeria, until Nigerians gather themselves and ask for God's mercy
Dis man really has nothing to offer, quote me anywhere✍️
😥
Ipob Igbos pls this is an opportunity to start insulting Buhari. Oya, start insulting afterall he has dealth with you all during the election. Ipob Igbos calling someone holding an office you can never hold clueless. Sai Baba till 2023. Expecting your attack
Mr father xmas,while many Nigeria is die of hungers.
And Nigerians are suffering,no good roads ,hospitals, unemployment and hunger. I think this is no fare
Are you kidding me?
Charity beghings at home ,this is Greek gift
Imagine this when there are millions unemployed Nigerians I thought there is a saying that says you have to be up to bring someone up, Nigeria is down yet we dey bring someone up fuck, I don’t blame this country for moving behind anyway
Stupidity of highest order 🖕🖕🖕
Was this money appropriated by the National Assembly or did it come from St.Buhari's private exchequer?
Let me pretend like i didn't read it.
President Darosa! Nigerians are dying of hunger and you are donating... No even clean water in some places in the North. Well, you are the greatest scammer of all times even Yahoo boys still dey learn ni...
Personal donation or Nigeria’s?
The money was supposed to be channeled to another thing especially the state of the security of the country.
See for yourself 😁
Why the country needs money to boost the economy and other developmental projects. Mr president should think wisely.
If the story is true, I consider it a money stealing avenue including all the unnecessary trips he embarks on.Those trips enable him launder stolen resources from the country. This questions the so-called immunity clause
We have a useless government
Wicked homo sapian
Buhari or Nigeria?
Ha God and we are wallowing in poverty Thousands are on streets seeking for daily breads gosh
For what reasons? When people are suffering, no food, no good Health care,no Water and so on,,,, PMB, pls stop protecting outsider,, charity home first.. MBuhari....
Buhari no get sense at all
MBuhari so Mister President, you can donate 188M to another country while the youths of your own country are starving... 😭😭😭 MBuhari Shameless😭😭😭
Nigeria needs those resources Mr President. We dont have enough to take care of ourselves thats why we’re indebted. Its very unnecessary.
It is more blessed to give than to receive but charity begins at home. Couldn't blame or judge yet, the full story is not coming up 😏 Godblessnigeria
If they can't provide for their electioneering process, why do the election then?
Olórí burúkú leleyi o... My God! 😤
This is so not good. Helping others when we actually need the help.
Buhari donates: Hypocrisy of a nation & her Fulani President, using BIAFRA Resources to build up his Fulani brother nation
What of coalaton Officers,that played vita roll during the Election
Am tired of this man
Our IDP,s needs this gesture more as this Nero applause is not merited same this Bissau whom proud themselves as not belonging to ECOWAS,
What!!! Our government has enough to run charity for other countries, when it's citizens are hungry... He's gonna help them rig the elections as well, so he gains from two countries 👏👏👏
Remove d log of wood in your eyes to see d speck in your neighbour's eyes, says d Holy Bible.
Hope they will return d vehicles after d election.
While we are here struggling to give legitimacy to our own election. This world of politics, is really absurd.
Nigerians, E don 🔴RED
Just for ordinary elections. I thought there was a war or natural disaster case.
OOsanaye come and see your sugar daddy.. The donator! 😂
Our own election was postponed because of logistics issues and here we are “poverty capital” donating to another country. My people will say..” instead of person to born fool make him born thief”.....mtcheww.
The biggest clown is misleading this country Nigeria...God tear down Buhari govt and all fake pastors, imam,monarchs applauding 😈
hypocrisy + stupidity + madness= MBuhari we need money here but u doing father Christmas,they are building dere country but u ruining 9ja
Poverty capital of the world is donating vehicles.
so we’ve saved a lot to dash out to other country.......... continue
The Bible say love your neighbor as thy self, so our president is doing the right thing
If Guinea don't have money why are they conducting elections, they shouldn't even exist as a country...
Why..
Y'all think we have a president who is mentally sound? Forgive him, He is not well oriented in the conditions we are faced with in this country. He is demented.
Wait, what?
I think something is wrong somewhere, how much did Guinea Bissau give to Nigeria in her election?
Pure hipocrasy. When many Nigerian are in abject poverty
Just Look At This Clueless Nigerian President, I’m Totally Bereft Of Speech 🤦🏾♂️
am a citizen of Nigeria kogi state and this government have never I repeat never donated any thing to me. Or I don't deserve it.
The money he should have used to increase national minimum wage to N100,000. PMB is a senseless man📢
Hmmmm
But yet, we suffered Logistics problem during elections here in Nigeria, SHAME!
This government is a scam, how do we explain this, young men/women are leaving d country for other country largely due to hardship, insecurity, others are committing suicides, jumping into Lagoon. No job, no light, no hope, yet d President is donating to a nation economically bet
Please my president Buhari, I need money ...
This man is just useless to us.. Let's give this Guinea people abi
This man is heavily corrupt
Aish, that money could have been used to better the lots of many Nigerians who r dwelling in the ocean of poverty,
Na him money.
But can't purchased form for himself in election in 9ja
Buhari so u can spend dis kind of amount on other country’s election. Well, d simple question is Y? Are u done with solving Nigerians financial problems
Please help me to inform Mr. President that the hardship in Nigeria is unbearable, people now sell their children fr food.
Its the official duty of the Nigerian government to support other smaller countries on the continent but wailers will not see that but blame PMB for carrying our official duty
The FG is keeping to her Big brother role on the African continent especially for countries such as Guinea who have suffered from crisis and are trying to find their feet, so is such a great thing that Nigeria is leading in supporting other African countries get it right
Are you serious
Ijoba f'owo se charity! 😁 Omoluabi t'okan t'okan 👏 E guwduh nah 😭 🇳🇬🙄
He can't be true
What kind of Government is this self, they will come to say no money to do the welfare of the country and they will still have money to donate what kind of a president is this. He don’t even have the fear of God. I sorry for Nigeria 🇳🇬 my country. Is this not scam🤷♂️
Nigeria I hail ooooo
Is this a joke or something?
Na wa o..... is that right ?
YeYe Fowl Wey Nor Dey Lay Egg For House, But Prefer Bush Mr Scammer 🤣🤣🤣🤣
President buhari I don’t support u on this one. Sometimes I don’t understand this my president sef, but I pray God give u the wisdom and good health as u take us to the next level
That's a good gestures from the Nigeria Government
Money still dey NIGERIA. IS IT OFFICIAL?
Eye service
NextLevel is extended to other nations
BIG brother, is the money from groundnut sales from the north or from the same south south oil?
Thank you sir,what about electricity for Nigerians,Things are becoming more unbearable.we cant work well,we cant eat well,we dont sleep well,we cant even enjoy our family any lomger.Please mr president do something
The fact is that Nigeria can be big brother for not assuming that responsibility. Nothing goes for nothing. Seeing illiterates complaining about this good move by the President proved that illiteracy is indeed a disease. Did they ask why America give financial aid to countries?
Muhammud Yakubu did you hear vehicles not donkeys and carts.
Interesting Country, Interesting Leaders and very interesting citizens.
As a student of international diplomacy, I know quite alright the concept of 'he who pay the Piper dictate the tune'.
This is no doubt a commendable step in the right direction. The funds is not from the personal account of the President, it is called a specific grant to Guinea Bissau
They know we can't do anything We should continue shouting...
I can see that most of you have conclude on this matter. its not his personal money but as a form of grant to them.
You guys that are just concluding on the matter. It is not his personal funds but just a form of grant from our country to theirs, as a form of encouragement.
How you be donating such amount while your own country is in poverty MBuhari
This government showing its leadership qualities to guinea, a small country that has suffered war and turmoil. Thanks for this kind of encouragement.
That's presidential but insufficient
wait for election 😂 😂 😂
Does the media just create story that make us to read just something? This is not practically possible under this era.
Whoever said that the link does not open has a bad network. It's a shame with all the problems we have.
Pure madness Borrow borrow president donating same to another country while Nigeria's are hungry without jobs
And Nigerians are in Guinea Bissau searching for greener pasture
Who cursed Nigeria? To whom it may concern Pls forgive us. We are tired
anthonykila
Serious
Wasted priority!
And same buhari said he doesn't have money to buy presidential ticket same man said he's now poor than before
Was thinking Charity begins at home, it appears PMB own begins in Guinea Bissau..
ObaJaiyeoba Edakun, I dint hear well You say
Weldone sir, keep it up.
Madness
On behalf of who? This our big brother syndrome will certainly ruin us.
I have said it before, let's sale this country and share the money so that better managers can take over, and you may even decide to seek citizenship elsewhere since you are financially loaded being a potential investor.
Hahahahahahaha Sai Baba. 😂😂😂😂😂
Bunch of buffons! We are in deep shit
You can imagine your country men are languishing in poverty , you are doing notice me outside. Continue
He has started punishing you guys for giving him second tenure.
If Guinea Bissau sees $100,000 worth of the money, they should just be grateful.
Na waa ooo,
What is this man doing for God sake
What is wrong God? Who did we offend please
I wish MBuhari will never come back form that UK visit....Plz sir just die there and go to hell. But is the fault of your father who did not wear condom when having sex to your mother. At least all this national disgrace wouldn't have exited
Buffoonery!
Can someone kindly question the president that given the current economic challenges of the country, aren't those donations merely waste of national resources? He keeps borrowing from China and other countries yet wastes it on unnecessary donations and foreign trips. So sad!
He for use this money construct/repair bad roads.
This a criminal act😡
Seems a Fulani is contesting or is leading in the poll...
Lol he’s trying to play the good guy to the other neighboring African countries so they can see him as a saint I guess those materials donated are the remaining ones both fraud inec and himself used to Rig the election few months ago
Charity begin at home
Philanthropist Buhari, let charity begin from your home town
This country has a problem
Has anyone been able to read anything on the news yet? Why comment on headline when the page has refused to open?
📟 With N160 per $ = N180,000000 WTF!!! 😨
Channelstv will surely win Guinness Book of record for fake news
Donated funds to other country.. when his own country is in huge debts
Ah!
500,000 Zimbabwean Dollars?
When Nigerian are hungry and homeless and Mr Corruption Fighter is Donating that amount of money....... Sufring and smiling....
Are we okay in this country? We keep wasting resources on things that doesn’t concern or matter to us. They should be donating to us and not vice versa
Continue Continue
SERIOUS..!!!!!!!!
To me, this does not make any sense
The link to this story is not opening... Did you regret then pulled the story down?
We'll never have sense again in Nigeria!!!
This is madness
While Zamfara is on fire
Iberibe adagbuola ya
Why should Nigeria be donating to these countries when ECOWAS is there to serve the same purpose? During Nigerians election, no country in WA donated a pin to her, our GDP is 1% ,while most of them are on 6% Btw us and them who truly need help, lost of priorities,we are sick😢🤦♀️
This is shit...
My mouth shut up 🤐
