A
consignment of medical supplies donated by Jack Ma, the founder of Alibaba, has
arrived Nigeria.
The
Chinese billionaire had used his foundation to forward millions of face masks,
testing kits and other protective equipment to Africa as the continent battles
to arrest the spread of COVID-19.
A cargo
operated by Ethiopian Airlines, which has been in charge of distribution of the
material on the continent, arrived Lagos at about 3:20 p.m. with Nigeria’s
share of the consignment, Business Day reported from the commercial capital.
The
items are part of about five million face masks, 1.8 million testing kits,
60,000 protective gears and other critical materials that arrived in Addis
Ababa on Monday. Mr Ahmed has been coordinating their speedy distribution
across the continent.
