Champagne, and then pain

Article Abstract:

The new Nigerian government faces political and economic problems such as corruption, the collapse of health and education services, the destruction of the civil services, low production levels in agriculture, and social problems. Lack of development in the petroleum producing Niger Delta region is an important issue, and lack of funds means the government's options for tackling this problem are limited. There is a high levels of AIDS infections, a problem which could also be tackled more easily if more cash were available.
