Citizens for Nigeria - The People Have The Power!

Oil Spill is Old News in Nigeria

Big oil spills are no longer news in this vast, tropical land. The Niger Delta, where the wealth underground is out of all proportion with the poverty on the surface, has endured the equivalent of the Exxon Valdez spill every year for 50 years by some estimates. The oil pours out nearly every week, and some swamps are long since lifeless. New York Times: Battered by Oil

Too Dumb to Rule!

Ibrahim Babangida has stated boldly that the Nigerian youth is too dumb to rule.

Responding to a question on why he was not interested in younger politicians ruling the country, Babangida had responded thus, "Because we have seen signs that they are not capable of leading this country and so, we feel we should help them.
