This only days after frustrated US hospitals said they could not find ventilators to buy anywhere.

Donald Trump hasn’t tweeted it, but according to Nigeria’s Information Minister Lai Mohammed it’s official.

In a telephone conversation the US President told his Nigerian counterpart Muhammadu Buhari that he stood in solidarity with the Nigerian people at this time of COVID 19..

He promised send ventilators to Nigeria to help COVID 19 patients breathe.

His willingness to do this will have to be gauged by officials.

America’s ability to keep the promise becomes a matter for the hard-pressed medical professionals — and the fact checkers.
