break apart, and that will be the end of

Wow! What a sight to behold shocked the cities landscape clearly depicts the level of intellectualism of the countries decision makers and d common determination to have a city that reflects their orientations. Here it is another story; no skyline even if there shld be there isn't electricity to lit it up at night as d citizenry are still using lantern while those that can afford a small generator set offs it immediately it clocks 12am. What a shame of a country... probably the most traveled set of people in d world who can't replicate what they see over their in their own land. Daft & wicked leaders!!!
