omar22: I know someone who is in a British prison for defrauding them over £2m and now they are preparing to squeeze that £2m out of him all the houses he bought both in Nigeria and in Europe has been auctioned off some time ago, still havent covered the £2m so its either he cough up or complete the 10 years sentence,
£2m intact, I rather complete the 10yrs sentence. NO?

No qualms. I'm just realizing you haven't read the novel. I thought you had so that's why I was wondering how it was possible for you to see so much similarity as to be able to make a comparison.
I don't know if there's an e-copy of the novel. What I have is a hard-copy.
chiogo: What's with the hating? Of course she's certainly not the best Nollywood has to offer but I'm sure the award isn't for the greatest of all time, it's probably a "best actress of the year" thing. So what? the same people can't win every year. Allow her the little fame she's getting.
Haha, I remember this movie where she comes from a poor home but goes to the city for college or something and acts like her parents are loaded. She was hilarious!!! Living a fake life. She would tell her friends from the city that she's going abroad when she wants to go visit her mom in the village[b]. My fave Omotola movie, can't remember the title though, it's at the tip of my tongue.
esajay1: The European Commission has signed a $1bn (£602m) development pact with Nigeria, aimed at tackling corruption and promoting peace.
A substantial amount of the funding will be spent on resolving conflict in the oil-rich and crime-plagued Niger Delta, the EU's development chief said.
The money will also target electoral reform and improving human rights.
But correspondents say many Nigerians will doubt the money will get to its intended targets.
$1 BILLION EU FUNDS 25%: peace and security 44%: governance and human rights 16%: trade, region integration and energy 15%: environment, health, culture and sciences
The BBC's Caroline Duffield, in Lagos, says corruption touches the lives of everyone in Nigeria and leaves the vast majority of people in poverty.
And she says many Nigerians believe the current government is losing the fight against corruption.
Almost a third of the EU money is devoted to the Niger Delta region.
For years militants have blown up pipelines and kidnapped foreign oil workers, demanding a fairer share of the wealth.
"I'm delighted that a substantial amount of this financing will go to support conflict resolution and the peace process in the Niger Delta which has been ravaged by years of unrest," said the EU's development commissioner Karel De Gucht .
Over the past few months, thousands of militants have given up their weapons in an amnesty deal offered by the government in return for the promise of education and jobs.
A three-month respite from the violence has brought back some oil and gas production, but sceptics fear the former fighters could resume violence if they do not quickly find work.
1) Is this a Greeks gift?
2) Is this a way to pay the politians so they ( their companies) cotinue to exploit the country's oil?
1) Greeks gift? Sure!
2) There's a possibility of quid pro quo hence the 'G Gift'.
