Thank you Obiemeka. The much we have been served by many eggheads so far on this noble platform bother on head or tail in the 2015 divide without the deeper question of what happened to us that we have become a country of big/good for nothing. We should appreciate Sister Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala for opening the pandora box that exhibits motion without movement. The greatest problem of Nigerians is that we have always moved past all shock therapies of the past. We are a difficult people to understand or predict.
My hope as a Nigerian lies in the fact that if South Africa can overcome apartheid rule and the minority government, we will overcome corruption and the antics of the heartless leaders strewn across the land. It is well.
