Interesting quote from Obama’s speech in Ghana yesterday:

No business wants to invest in a place where the government skims 20 per cent off the top, or head of the port authority is corrupt. No person wants to live in a society where the rule of law gives way to the rule of brutality and bribery. That is not democracy, that is tyranny, and now is the time for it to end.”


Very interesting article on the speech from Nigeria’s point of view:
(I don’t know how to do that tiny url thing so add http:www. and then paste the rest.)
