The federal government of Nigeria has denied receiving any bill from Madagascar over the remedy drug it received to fight the novel coronavirus.
It insisted that the remedy is just a brotherly gift from Madagascar, contrary to reports making the rounds that a bill of 170,000 Euros was sent across for the quantity delivered to Nigeria.
