If Idi Amin hid his money in Saudi, he would have enjoyed it. But in Uk or America who wanted him. It's not possible.
Amin was a muslim and has good ties with the Saudi government. They treated him as a special guest. The money spent on him till he passed was not his.

Again I repeat it is symbolic.

Of course you can write a thesis on how the broom market is the platform upon which a country can attain greatness if you so desire.
The symbolism is at best weak and at worst foolish.
Nations and civilizations have been built on less glamorous ideas than brooms.
Productivity is about filling a need not necessarily the means of filing it.

In your wisdom can you tell us why we are yet to transform the common broom that have been around before your forefathers into a global money spinner.

Wahala. Some people will just form a group, sit down in a beer parlour and claim to be writing on behalf of millions of Nigerians.



Why didn't your own parents do it in their time? Or they loved the corruption?

Besides I deliberately didn't comment on the topic of the thread. I only chose to talk about the group claiming to write "on behalf of millions of Nigerians" when it is actually just few people that decided among themselves to write. This isn't the first time we are seeing such a thing, even unions that are politically motivated claim they do whatever they do "on behalf of millions of Nigerians". That's how a group of less than 30 people claimed to be protesting on behalf of the indigenous people of Abuja during the end SARS protest
They are speaking for the Nigerians that hate corruption and Love transparency.

The patriots.

And if that is not the majority, then it is sad.

Because we don't control the world's economy.
It will surprise you that brooms are being imported into Nigeria.

A govt that cancelled "you win" is not serious about creating jobs.

That WAS a policy that was lauded by all and Sundry and even copied from NIgeria by Some countries.

Allow entrepreneurs to submit their proposal, give serious capital to the best applicants, every yeàr or six months.

A brilliant policy with massive potential.

The moment buhari stopped it, I just discarded his Job creation potentials as president.

It still doesn't change the fact that it's a common practice that some few people would form a group, sit down in their house and claim to be speaking on behalf of millions of Nigerians. I'm not concerned about whether they did the right thing or not. It is you who chose to jump on my mention without reading and understanding properly.

Definitely someone in Gowon's payroll is behind this sudden change of position by the UK diplomatic office. Even though the initial outrage that greeted the allegation when it first came out has fallen flat and failed to yield any results in Gowon's probe.

The truth is that Gowon looted but the guy will have to source for the right info since the UK govt has distanced it self from the allegations undecided
Gowon was pardoned by President Shehu Shagari in 1982, so what are they investigating again?
