Agile: I pray so. @John: This kind of situation will only stop if Nigeria have more to offer.
Browayson John Sr.
That's true & ironic at the same time Endy cos we obviously don't have any thing to offer & they (US) know this too more than we do, , that's why they keep giving us even when we don't ask for it.
