Nigeria and 662mn iphones

1st question: What is Nigeria government doing with iphones worth that huge sum of money?
2nd question: Iphones; is it part of our problems in this country?
3rd question: where did the money come out from because Nigerians were witnesses when jonathan government said that there's no money to meet up with ASUU's demands?
4th question: Jonathan should meaningfully assess his government, then he should answer this question, what sort of independence are we celebrating?  The white men left us, then we began enslaving ourselves.........

The Nigerian government is yet to
react to the claim. British luxury products company, Gold and CO , has revealed that it has an
order from the Nigerian government to deliver 53 customised gold iphones
for the celebration of the next
independence celebration.

The founder of Gold and Co, Amjad Ali,, told the UK’s Independent newspaperthat the Nigerian government has made an order of “53 gold iPhones to mark the country’s 53rd year of independence from Britain next month.”

Mr. Ali told the Independent that the order from the Nigerian government “will [be] engraved them with [Nigeria’s] coat of arms, a shield and two horses,”
Mr. Ali’s Gold and Co clients include royal families, governments, and wealthy individuals from across the
world.

A gold-plated device costs betweenc£3000 and £50,000 (N750,000 to 12.5million). The order from the government with its customised coat of arm is believed to be among the
constant premium orders the
company gets.

The London-based company recently received an order from the Saudi royal family for “a gold iPhone studded with hundreds of diamonds, including a giant piece that served as the device’s ‘home’ button.”

Gold and Co is yet to respond to
PREMIUM TIMES enquiry about the
Nigerian agency or official that made the order and the exact cost of the order from the government.
When contacted, Joseph Mutah, the spokesman for the Information Minister, Labaran Maku, asked for an SMS enquiry, which was sent. Mr. Mutah promised to get back to
PREMIUM TIMES on the federal
government’s position.
