Don't forget that corruption in Africa is all the white mans fault for either offering bribes in the first place or paying them when demanded.

You chaps haven't exactly made a very good job of things over the last forty odd years have you ?

Nigeria with its vast oil wealth could be one of the richest countries in the world yet the vast majority live in poverty. Tremondous agricultural potential, some of which is being developed by displaced white Zimbabwean farmers, yet you have to import food. An oil producer with regular fuel shortages ???

I mearly commented that converting to a Nigerian licence could involve corruption, given that it is endemic in Nigeria. You even have your own word for it - "dash".

I have 5 ATPLs and 1 CPL so I do have some experience of licence conversion.
