While it is not any right to think the discovery of Oil is a problem to
Africa, I think if we have good policies that govern the use and
distribution of resources, then we can go very far. If greedy leaders are
not elected, then we can manage resources equitably
If the foreign nations are not allowed to manage 100% of our resources,
then we would do great in this regard.
What knows what happened of the Titanium project at the Coast?
