Hi SASless
Nice to see I made a well timed relocation. What really got my attention was when one of the local staff brought a Biafra Again poster to work. Not only did he bring it to work, but allowed an expat to see the poster before he placed it in his locker. It seems the old idea of an independent state controlling the Niger Delta is still alive and growing. Of course if the elected government is unable to hand the situation, well looks like the generals will be back in power! Who gets the oil money then? Good time to keep a low profile and your eyes open. You know these people will push just as far as possible before listening to authority. This appears to be a much more complicate situation than it might first appear. I just pray the Nigerian people don't have another Biafra style situation visited upon them.
