NIGERIA NEWS UPDATE: YOU ARE ENTITLED TO MY OPINION (VII)
In the past I did this more frequently, but recently news coming out of Nigeria has been sort of so so. But not anymore I am bringing this series back. In this series I pretend like my opinion matters, so I proceed to let the world know what my feelings are about events in home country.
: Since we have now figured old man OBJ practically flushed money down the drain by handing money out to unregistered companies with no intentions of fixing Nigeria's power problem. My hunch is that we do not need 13 or 18 billion dollars to kick things off. With one billion dollars we can get off to a good start. I am no longer buying the idea that Nigeria's energy problems is as big as they make it to be. With small funds and a big brain Nigerians will pay for their power consumption. Yaradua asking for $20bn dollars is just another OBJgate waiting to happen.
. I really like the symbolic aspect of this incidence. Are things changing?: Not bad at all. If only we had more of this, maybe someday a Nigerian company will buy up Jaguar and Rover like the .
: Wow! Nigeria has customer surveys. Good thing are really happening.
Hold up! Is this a market correction or things are turning around. They gave me their word, things would not turn sour till middle of 2009. Lets keep our eyes wide open here.

well, it is time for Yardy to blaze his own path. As The Afrobeat told me, the marker will be power generation in Nigeria. I hope we will not still be arguing about how much money was wasted in 6 months time but rather be decisively addressing Nigeria's problems in a transparent manner.
