Meanwhile, the Nigerian High Commission has and is currently making a big fuss out of this. They've written to the University threatening to shut down their offices in Nigeria. The University has now withdrawn from sponsoring the programme, but it's still taking place in their auditorium nonetheless. That's how bad it gets at times.

Part of rebranding and repackaging is to be transparent, what has YAR A'DO NOTHING has to hide if people( concerned citizens of Nigeria) are debating the state of NIgeria as it is now and the future.

Mr. Yar A'clueless should order the tape and learn what his cronies are not telling him about what the ordinary people are feeling , and the fact that people are hurting, and most importantly that the country is not moving forward. This Country called Nigeria with ridiculous government costs of running the country. The connivince of all the arms of govt.

The costs of running the govt is enough to do major developments that will at least show the people that the country is moving foward. All the govt want to do is decorate , rebrand and repackage with the hope that things will just be okay and problems will vanish.

Those pretending to be leading us cannot see themsleves in the mirror, they are ANIMALS and INSANE PEOPLE in humans clothing, some made from wild animals.

thanks Viga, exactly our point.

I dont understand the basis for such threat and bitterness, perhaps, Ribadu's involvement. But nonetheless, it's about a country celebrating her shadow democracy in a few days time, that still stops at nothing to suppress her citizens freedom of speech at every nook and cranny of the world. You dont have an idea how much cost the univz withdrawal has on the organizers.
