[size=20pt]Nobel prize by Negotiation[/size] The granting of the Nobel “peace prize” to president Barack Obama has become an integral part of the Pentagon’s propaganda machine It provides a human face to the invaders, it upholds the demonization of those who oppose US military intervention. /www.globalresearch.ca/obama-and-the-nobel-prize-when-war-becomes-peace-when-the-lie-becomes-the-truth/15622 |

caustical: Yes you heard me right... Dr. NOI . Paying where and where, do you know what Nigeria's debt profile looks like? Are you talking about FG's debt or state and FG as well? States accounted for more than 60% of our debt, with Lagos taking the cake of more than 15% of it. Go back to the DMO and read again, her administration has managed the FG portion of the debt while raising out budget by almost 25% even though 21% of it will be financed through debt. 2 Likes |

@caustical, literary award winners trace their mentor to achebe, who traces his/her mentor to soyinka(no offense)? When you mention people like mandela of africa, you mention achebe of africa, these men fought white supremacy in a gallant way. |

Caustical, you are indeed a coward and a loser. Mention that of your kinsmen....if not soyinka, and perhaps, osundare, who else do you have? Olodo.... If you want to come into the realm of science, am ready for you. You can't even compare awo to zik of africa, one in whom the ideology of zikism is noted among foreign observers.... Caustical, find your level... |
