Sorry U are a Ghanian Nigerian, life is easy and slow for u on that side.....we on the front lines know what is really going on. The Banks are the ones destroying Nigeria. They encourage corruption and their growth does not reflect the economy. While Communities are going under, banks are reporting growth....how is that possible. Could it be they are helping our Politicians Hide and use stolen money ??? Zinox should just keep assembling Computers....in China and stop fooling us. I agree that we need to develop the Software industry and get the BIG guys away from it. Those BIG GUYS that are implementors for Foreign Software companies......they are selfishy not encouraging local developement of our Software companies. Lastly inferiority complex is killing us. God Bless Nigeria.....we are the best in what we do .....Good or Bad Good, work , I only disagree with the issue about the Banks.

The hope of this country is us. We aren't going to remain the slave that our parents inherited. The time for change is now. As a professional business consultant, am educating the African mind on this already. I have packaged two clients who are selling Nigerian made shoes and suits already to the global market. Our target is to package at least 20 of such businesses before this year round up. Personally, I am an addict to Made in Nigeria. We are like minds. The hope of this country is us.

That's it. :lol: They can deny it all they want, but Nigerians are too RELEVANT to be IGNORED! @Tito
