The s/s Economic summit 2012

The capital city of Delta state,Asaba came alive on the 26 of april hosting a three day economic summit tagged south south economic summit 2012 for the south south region.Yours truly was in attendance and listened to great minds like Wole Soyinka,Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala and others speak passionately about not just the Niger delta region but the nation,Nigeria.I personally have come to the conclusion that true federalism is the answer to the numerous Nigerian problems.Let us adopt that cliche again "small is beautiful"!.
