      Victor, exactly, “HOW” in capital letters? Will the Euro notes be deployed as corruption police to arrest the corrupt officials and politicians or will the Euro notes be embedded with intelligent chips that will detect when the filthy fingers of Nigerian officials begin to pilfer them into their off shore accounts! I don’t understand how more money into a system already awash with cash that is being stolen on daily basis will check the stealing. Oyibo claim they sabi book pass we black people, so EU lecture us, we are waiting!

    They are mad, what about the trillions of pounds, euro and dollars, I mean that money that belongs to us which our leaders are keeping with them. Nigeria is not poor in cash but with the brains of the leaders from president to councilors. Just imagine, Nigeria should be ashamed of itself, EU doesn’t have what Nigeria has, EU lives comfortably on taxation yet donated money for Nigeria, African leaders when are you people going to do something tangible and positive for your people so at least they can be regarded as human beings.
