Let me leave Mr integrity group who has shown us the type of integrity he has.
Then one hasty claim in order to score points. I don't know why government will approve story to be carried that every right thinking person knows is not exactly the current fact on ground. Yes they met in UAE and this is the goal but these people should just stop. We are not fools. Some of us have brains on our head. Who doesn't know that diplomatic matters takes steps that can be slow. Already claiming that flights has resumed immediately, visas will start being issued...is that how it works? What's all this for sef. Do they know how hard it is to schedule a flight. Like the planes are just sitting there waiting for "Oya start". Jets that are in other routes now. Plans will be made, everything will be worked out down to the licences but just under one hour of meeting they say flights can resume and visas will be issued. Has their problems with Nigerian cultist groups been resolved, has their trapped funds been repatriated? They just open mouth waaah that visas will start. Please let these guys have some decency. This is the goal no doubt but don't claim it before it materialises. It shows how desperate they are to start claiming successes even if they have to fabricate it. The other day they say billions of deals secured from India? Which business person or corporation will sign deal in india without coming to the location to see what's on ground, commission feasibility studies and what have you. Yet they are planting stories and some people are falling for it.
Na wa o. I never see this kind desperate people. Nigerians should start viewing them with what they do and not what they say. We will rejoice when we see what's on ground not what's on the news please.
