This morning I checked the EoPSD website and see that there have been some significant changes; a lot of the marketing bullshit has disappeared.
Perhaps the managers at GTZ are responsive to constructive criticism?
International Development is a complicated area; there are no easy solutions. As well as the money-grabbing consultants I did meet people at GTZ who seemed to be genuine in their desire to work side-by-side with Nigerians, not try to impose a foreign ideology on them from a position of supposed superiority.
Since returning to London I find that I miss Nigeria more and more; the kindness, good humour, love of children, and respect for older people that we seem to be losing in the so-called “developed” countries.

"Nigeria is a great country, corrupted and exploited by a few selfish and greedy people." AMEN
