March 30 interview with allafrica.com covered the ranged of bilateral U.S.-Nigeria issues: next steps for the government, elections 2011 issues, TSA listing, violence in Jos, and how U.S. companies see investment in Nigeria, including the impact of the fragile amnesty in the Niger Delta. My key points were Jos voilence is complex and includes several issues: ethnicity, sectarian issues, and land issues: it is not a one dimensional problem. See sending the unedit version of the Electoral Reform Committee (ERC) report to the National Assembly as a step in the right direction. Await the vision for the new cabinet.
