The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation said that it
spent 250 million dollars on health, education and improving the lives of the
poor in Nigeria in 2016.
Dr Mairo Mandara, its Country Representative, disclosed this
in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Abuja.
She said that the foundation does not estimate how much will
be invested on a nation but based its investments on the needs on ground.
“Five years ago, we spent about 35million dollars; but last
year alone, we spent 250million dollars because the needs were high and we had
to spend the money.
“This year we will see a little increase in what we were
doing; we do not say this is the amount of money we will spend in Nigeria
