... he's Ghanaian, he lived in tanzania .. and I wouldn't let him near Lagos... he'd come out with some superficial waffle ... Lagos will crush his ego and send the residue back to Accra ... he's better doing buildings in the west .. African cities require serious minds not egos.

thought he was tanzanian

David is actually not Nigerian. He is ghanaian. What is it with Nigerians, claiming everyone for themeselves?

"hey jeremy, no mention of your countrys' change in leadership."

The elections were flawed. Yar'Adua is in power. End of story.

Good article. Always nice to see a Nigerian name mentioned in any article not also containing the number 419.

Interesting, the British view that the next great thing for any Englander is cracking the US “market.” Not really made it until then, aye, what? ;-)

Like we would give two shits about an architect, much less a “furriner” when we barely celebrate our home-grown variety; Gehry is barely known.

Not a pretty picture.
