COVID-19: Ukraine begs US billionaire, Elon Musk, for ventilators on Twitter

Published




Ukraine has taken to Twitter to ask Elon Musk to send it ventilators after the billionaire chief executive of Tesla Inc offered to ship them across the world during the coronavirus pandemic.

Musk said this week he was ready to send the life-saving machines wherever his company delivers, free of charge.

“Dear Elon, Ukraine is the second-largest country in Europe with population nearly 40 mln citizens,” Kiev’s embassy in Washington wrote on Twitter late on Wednesday.

“The pandemic situation in Ukraine is approaching its peak, April is going to be the hardest. People in hospitals need ventilators. We are ready to cooperate! Dyakuyemo! (Thank you!)”

WuzupNigeria reports that Nigeria had earlier taken up the billionaire’s offer on Twitter. However, the tweet had drawn consternation from Nigerians prompting the Federal Government to delete the tweet and apologise to its citizens.
