NIGERIAN TRIBUNE – Pros & Cons

A deadly pact with the devil
 NIGERIAN Tribune 10-09-2008 Has Nigeria signed a pact with the devil? With the signing of an agreement with Iran to help resuscitate the nation’s ailing energy sector, that is exactly what seems to have been done. August 29, 2008, some foreign media (particularly The Florida Times Union newspaper) published that Nigeria and Iran signed an agreement the previous day, for “Iran to share peaceful nuclear technology with Nigeria to help Africa’s biggest oil producer to bolster its woeful energy generation capacity.”…………………………Was this information deliberately kept out of the Nigerian press or could it have been an oversight? No matter what one might think, what qualifies Iran to sell nuclear energy technology to Nigeria? Is it because it is defying the rest of the world to continue its revolutionary, pet nuclear project?……………………..Much as Nigeria may be desperate to improve electricity supply, nuclear energy should probably be the farthest alternative from our minds given the level of our development and the mostly lackadaisical attitude towards maintenance and control of public infrastructure.
