A Bond That Must Never Be Broken (VI)

Permit me to once again share the words of the Sweden-based Nigerian writer, Prince Kio Jaja Amachree. He wrote the following on X: “In 1990 when Mandela came to thank Nigeria for its support to the ANC and the Pan African Congress he was given 10 ten million USD by the Nigerian Government as our further contribution to the ANC when he was leaving. US$61billion was the total figure that Nigeria donated to the ANC and the Pan African Congress by 1994. Adjusted for three decades of inflation, and with even a conservative rate of interest applied, as any court applies to any unpaid debt, the true present value of Nigeria’s sacrifice runs into the hundreds of billions of dollars”.
