It is imperative that we know the name(s)of the recepient of the bribe. After all, it takes two to tango, you know - the giver and the taker are both indictable offenders. We'll like to see what kind of punishment the Nigerian official(s) that was bribed gets in the Nigerian legal system so as to set precedent for future offenders as the world is watching what will happen in Nigeria regarding this matter. What is more, our probing Senators are yet to release the names of the 419 kingpins among them. How can we beileve anything that comes out of any govt reports but cover ups.

Another switch and bait. First they were, to test where the wind was blowing, now they wont, having seen the subliminal message sent by Condi Rice on her recent visit to Libya. A country like Nigeria where mere crude oil pipes lines blow up regularly wants to mess with nuclear technology. And, how much would that cost aside from another rounds of 60 billion dollar bandied about by Shamsudeen to cover infrastructural development in the next 6 years. Do Sham even know how much a billion dollar is talkless of $60B which is barely more than half our current GDP of $191B. Even in the super rich countries like the US with a GDP of about $13 Trillion, a billion dollars is still a lot of money to toy with. In the land of the blind the one-eyed is King - lets all follow the half blind leader over the cliff.

A BRIBE OF $182 BILLIONS IS GREAT !! MAYBE THE GAS IS ALREADY SOLD OUT LIKE BAKASSI,BEFORE PRODUCTION.NEWS HAS IT THAT AN EXTENSION OF NIGERIAN GAS PIPILINE ACROSS THE SAHARA DESERT TO EUROPE IS NOW IN PROGRESS.PLEASE,OUR NEWSME N,AND SECURITY AGENCIES SHOULD INVESTIGATE THIS RIGHT NOW.
