Now
B, give us your opinion about the situation in
Nigeria .
I was there last month. I feel the situation is
pretty unstable and impossible to continue for long.
Anybody wants to respond to that? Any opinion? D,
would you like to say something?
I think, a more detailed information about the
economic and political situation is required.
Do you all agree?
Yes, we do need more information.
A meeting would be good.

first we need to have more information. It's too early for a meeting. I’ll
have the reports organised and then we can discuss thiese by teleconference.
