It will be seen as an American Corner but underneath it's probably a liaison office for American spies in the West African subregion grin

They learned that strategy from China grin cool

There is a popular saying that if you want to hide anything from a Blackman,hide it in a book
For some of us who have at one time or the other used an American Corner,we are most grateful
I remember sometimes in 2014 and 2015,I was a regular visitor at the American Corner in Enugu state precisely around Edinburgh Road
That place contributed greatly to who I am today, no capping my people,you read books on practically every topic under the earth
The Environment was top notch,the staff were probably the most friendliest I have ever met

That place became my solace from everything around me,it was a place for me to be reborn literally
I can go on and on, but I must sincerely thank the American government,they understand that until you change the way a man thinks you are just probably wasting a generation
I will definately take time to visit the one in Lekki when I am chanced


True bro.

I appreciate the continuous effort the United States is making towards human resource development in Nigeria. Like you, I've been a beneficiary of the resources and environment provided at the American corner in my city.

Conducive environs, electricity, free internet, books, magazines and to top it all, monthly programmes on skills and knowledge acquisition.

I know a few persons who got fully-funded scholarships to study in the US after receiving good coaching through the American corner's EducationUSA program, and also other beneficiaries of the Mandela Washington fellowship program.

I wish more young people would take advantage of, and utilise these spaces and resources to build capacity and skills.

They're are not responsible for your country backwardness, and did any country help them to fight their own bandits?. Banditry is big business in Nigeria/Africa, know this and your won't be deceived again.

God bless my brother,sometimes it is very important to put out this type of useful information so that people who are willing to take a leap can know that there are others who have benefitted from using an American Corner in their city,it will also help if you can give the location of the American Corner in your cuty

Oga, to fix all these, let Nigeria stop running unitary system of govt. For instance, u want to move national assets like CBN which is funded with all tax payers money to Lagos which would add up revenue generated by Lagos state. Then tomorrow, u want non Yorubas out of Lagos and u want them not to vote any candidate of their choice? Can u all sit down and talk senses to una heads?
The best thing is try as much as possible to decentralize Nigeria so that every region will be free from lagos, so that the general tax of Nigerians wont be going to lagos again rather the tax of yoruabs can be in lagos. This way, no body go follow u drag lagos. And as long as Nigeria runs a centralized system, people will always call BAT name or whoever is in power.
Even America that does not run a unitry system of govt, her citizens are constantly abusing their president even though their president has sense more than all Nigerian leaders.


And what stopped GEJ,OKONJO IWEALA,IKE EKWEREMADU,EMEKA IHEDIOHA,STELLA ODUAH AND ANYIM PIUS ANYIM from achieving this one for you in 2010 to 2015.


Or you just choose to continue your usual VICTIM MENTALITY.

Your mumuism didn't let you realize that it was GEJ and LAMIDO SANUSI that built the new CBN headquarters annex in Lagos

Shun mediocrity my bro. Lagos would be a 100 times greater than it is presently if it were properly managed. You don't see it because you're eulogizing the very same man who's leeching on its resources
What about your own life?


Exactly,we can see how great Anambra became after it was properly managed by one mumu like that?

If him leeching on lagos post 1999 made the state better than its pre 1999,LET THE LEECHING CONTINUE.

You can continue enjoying your own UNLEECHED ANAMBRA

Lol. Do not be delusional my friend. I'm not in league with those who serenade PO as a saint. He's a thief like the rest of them but imo he's more viable than BAT. On the premise of government he performed better than BAT given the scarce resources he had to work with but I don't expect you to believe me since you're incapable of doing this simple research but will instead resort to spewing out the lies you've been sold that pre BAT government, Lagos was a desert.

SHUT UP YOUR DIRTY MOUTH.

What do you know about what they have done or haven't done in Nigeria?

Slave with no brain.

Are you aware their CIA was fingered in the assassination of General Murtala Ramat Muhammmed?

A leader acknowledged as Nigeria's most honest, progressive, and incorruptible leader?

A man that would have single-handedly led Nigeria to development and industrialisation?

Are you aware of the US role in the assassination/deposition of several progressive post-independence African leaders, from Patrice Lumumba to Kwame Nkrumah to Thomas Sankara and Muammar Ghadaffi among others?

Ignorant slave.

Don't use your brain and know who your real friends and enemies are in the world.

After all your brain is just there for decoration while you play happy smiley slave to whitey.

BAT is better than most of our governors in terms of vision though all of them have some fair share of kwaraption ,

but some people will never admit theirs. Like I always say this present Yoruba generation won’t acknowledge BAT but the next ones will Eulogies him when his legacies starts to pay off
.

But we can’t say much about our respective governors , instead of calling them out we will rather rubbish BATs legacies and say Lagos is a no man’s land . Let’s keep on giving our respective governors the impetus to do rubbish why we criticize only Lagos Governors who are still better in all ramifications.

Use the vision to buy fish in the market

You cant compare South Korea with Nigeria, US and South Korea are both regional allies, both economic and militarily, for Nigeria, it is not the same.
