For all the bad names you have to call your President, Blair has already advised him not to always accept your judgment on issues as you are speaking for some vested interests who are bent on maintaining the status quo. Rice also mentioned something about hearing for the first time that instead of news of AIDs and corruption coming from Africa, she can clearly feel GEJ's efforts in terms of expanding opportunities. Even Tinubu and IBB agrees as they are actively involved in this scramble to take advantage of the opportunities. I am most encouraged by the part that Nigeria is on the way up, and that means tht Africa is on the way up.
These are cheering endorsement by the people the investing community listen to, not vested interests.

Biggyd2: Blair can say what he wants.He doesn't know the country more than Nigerians. My issue is what GEJ means by 'fear of the unknown". Is that part of the reason he is thinking of a second term.

I understand your point, but i also want you to consider the fact that FDI is a necessary engine for economic transformation in this 21st century. If you want FDI in your country, then you have to make your country look attractive and go out there and woo the investors. They will then come in with the requisite finance, skills and technology to make the change you are asking for. This is the most radical way to create job.

Based on that, we have to praise the Team Nigeria for assembling these high profile individuals like Rice and Blair to advance Nigeria's case. If you have really planned an event before, you will appreciate the amount of lobbying and efforts put in to get these guys seated there at that time to polish us in the eyes of the world and they did the job pretty well.

This to me is an active effort by some people to make the country better, not firing cheap shot from anonymous internet forum. If we want this change to happen, we must do what we can. Which of this administration's policy do you endorse and what HAVE YOU DONE to advance it. Now if you tell me that you disagree with ALL of this administration's policies, i will worry about your motives.

Blair, speaking on the occasion, urged Nigerians not to always accept the stance of the opposition on issues, as they were not speaking for the majority of the citizens but a few vested interests

If I understand you, you appreciate an unnamed number of this administration's policy but you are not disposed to DO SOMETHING to advance it, even if it means explaining it to our less informed friends. You seem to be driven more by what you think could go wrong with its implementation. Now, how does criticizing those same policies you 'appreciate' for non performance even before they go their full life cycle make you a better Nigerian. And for the sake of my children and your children, don't you think that the best we could do for our country of birth is to DO SOMETHING in whatever capacity to make things better instead of complaining about the potential of policies to go wrong.

These guys on investment drive for our country are doing something. Now what else are you doing apart from telling them how they are going to fail?

Can u just imagine ?

If the opposition doesn't always represent the voice of the people, how on earth does it concern him?

Come-to-think-of-it, opposition always represents the voice of the people in Syria, Libya, Egypt and Russia right? But not in Nigeria just because the current administration forms a strong tie.

This shows that the West doesn't have the interest of the people at heart. Once the govt is an ally, the opposition is wrong and if otherwise the opposition is right.

No wonder Desmond Tutu wants this man to be jailed for war crimes.
