    Dan,

    I am glad for your successes in Nigeria. I am a Nigerian living in the United States and was so proud of your bold move that l had to share your story with a few of my African American friend who seriously think that Africans still swing from tree tops. I know what you are thinking.....they are college educated but they still live like caged birds who do not see beyond their immediate vicinity because of their perception of Africa. I say you are bold because you did not allow US travel advisory to stop you from your dream. As you can see, we Nigerian are friendly and loving people. Please share you story with other brothers because a revolution train is taken off all over African, more Black people from diaspora need to get on board.
