And what has that got to do with the price of garri in the market ? Did he invent the technology ? We have plenty high speed cables in Africa (check out WASC-SAT3, Main-one, Glo-1, SEACOM) etc. What have they done for the common man ? NEPA alone is enough to kill his dream unless he can find a way to generate and sustain power in the country. |
