Interesting article. I wonder if the Nigerian people will have the cojones to stand up to their leaders?

I don’t think it’s a matter of cajones, more of access to information and of priority.
If there wasn’t a 24-hour-a-day media frenzy surrounding American politicians – sort of like in the old days – they would easily get away with all manner of corrupt and/or unacceptable behavior – sort of like in the old days.
And I think people in general don’t tend to pay attention to political scandals of any type when simply getting though the next day is of such pressing concern.
It is oddly refreshing though to have the actions of one of our leaders somewhat praised by people in other parts of the world. I can’t remember the last time I heard of that.

LOL @ Miss Sweazie’s comment.
This article was sad but true. I was just there a few months ago. The culture of lawlessness in Nigeria with our politicians has not changed, and will not change. If the example of the United States is to be followed, we have several decades to go.
