The wives of politicians and even civil servants want to travel abroad to "Learn" how democracy works. What a country.

All these years that you men have been making useless trips abroad, no one complained. One lousy trip by women and all hell is breaking loose. Get over yourselves. For God's sake, the last time President Obasanjo was in the US, he admitted that he did not know why he was in the States. I don't think the trip by these women has anything to do with democracy. But, since you men are wasting money travelling abroad, the women are entitled to do the same.

The only problem I see is that the only women involved here are the wives of the same men who are wasting money on aimless foreign trips.

Folanke,

I'm going to give you a 5* rating. You've brought a new bite and dimension to the discourse in this board.

To be honest with you, Aremu doesn't even know what he is doing at Aso rock never mind USA!

Welcome to BiafraNigeriaWorld. You are very right.

Does anyone know the purpose of Orji Kalu's last trip to the US? Attending the re-union of some evening crash course business school attendees at Harvard is hardly a good reason to spend taxpayers' money.
