Nice post chuks, and so true. There are so many things people could list that are wrong in Nigeria (and other countries), but it's rare to note the plus side. And there is one, isn't there ? After all, if there wasn't, what are we doing here when North Sea pilots bank almost the same after tax etc ?

Yes, Africa has it's problems, but over the years I've met a couple of Americans who were working way past their sell by dates as drilling superintendents etc because they felt safer in Nigeria than places like Houston or Dallas. 10,000 muggings/street thefts a day in London. And a bunch of people who pass each other every day without saying a word.

Nuff said
