Thank you for posting the story. That's depressing (in part because it's unsurprising), but I appreciate knowing.
The "American University" bringing its savior-industrial complex to this situation is tragicomic (mostly tragic alas), but I'm not sure I have enough background on Nigeria to say anything intelligent about where and how the government could make up its shortfalls. The article was interesting, but I'd read 10,000 words too.
A Nigerian immigrant and here-political activist I know described the recent presidential election there as like if our two major candidates were Dick Cheney and Pat Robertson.
Huh. Wiki says Cheney is still alive. Could have sworn he wasn't.
4: He's been undead for quite a while now.
My brother seems to like living there.
6: Really like its peaches, wanna shake its trees.
Is he an agent of a foreign power?
If he likes living there how is sadness literally in his job description?
He represents sadness, not experiences it.
Sadness surely is foreign to your great nation?
It turns out many employers illegally induce sadness and that you may be entitled to compensation.
He's been undead for quite a while now.
He spent several years without a detectable pulse. A dead man's heart now beats within his chest.
Better there than in the floor.
