Happy New Year

Happy new year everyone. I want to use this opportunity to say a big thanks to anyone and everyone who spent some time reading my blog (instead of say...watching an episode of the Simpsons). I am sorry i havent been able to ramble about Nigeria, the world and everything in between, especially as therr has been quite a lot happening since my last post; incuding 2 major aircrashes in Nigeria which shocked Nigerians and exposed the incompetency of our aviation authorities and their (lack of) regulation, the successful elections in Iraq! (yes successful), and the new madness in the Nigeria about a (rumoured) aspiration of our President and thirty of our thirty-six state Governors to subvert our constitution by introducing a (clearly idiotic) amendment allowing them run for third terms of four years respectively. Needless to say that I will need to delve into the gist of these and other topics including my Persons of the year Bono, Bob Geldorf and Ellen Sirleaf Johnson. The first two need no introduction, the third is a nan (grandmother) who recently got elected to run Liberia (After the last elected guy completed the job of messing the country up). Maybe you can check this blog out on tuesday January 3rd, I should have something sensible up then,....(no guarantee it will be sensible)..till then let's be thankfull we made it to 2006, and personally....I wish you a happy new year.
