Bill Clinton, retired President of U.S.A.

- " In March 1998, Bill Clinton paid the first visit to sub-Saharan Africa by a U.S. president in more than 20 years..."

- President George Bush (junior) of U.S.A. has also visited some African countries, but he does not seem to make the mark that Clinton has made.

Clinton Lays It On The
Line For Nigeria
President Clinton has spelled out
the major economic challenges facing Nigeria and warned that debt relief will only come once the country has demonstrated that it will not continue to fritter away oil revenues and will invest the savings from deft relief wisely.
Speaking to Nigerian and American business leaders at a forum last night, Clinton said there was an urgent need to rebuild decrepit infrastructure, invest in education and in health facilities and that the challenges must be faced by leaders in both government and the private sector.

Chronology Of The
Struggle For Stability And
Democracy.
The forty years of independence for Africa's
most populous nation have not been easy.
Welding such a diverse community into a single
nation with a stable political process is still at an
early stage despite its advantages in oil resources,
good agricultural land, and a solid core of
well-educated citizens. Many Nigerians say that if
there is any good coming out all the bad years of
military dictatorship and ineffective civilian
governance, it's that they have made enough
mistakes to learn meaningful lessons from them.
