Ambassador Mathew Tawo Mbu, former Nigerian High Commissioner to the United Kingdom, took a look at the gale of civil uprising sweeping across the Arab world and laughed off the chances of a similar occurence in Nigeria, insisting that the peculiarities of Egypt and its sister Arab nations are far removed from the situation in Nigeria. In an Interview with LINUS OBOGO and OMONIYI SALAUDEEN, he said, “The development in Egypt and elsewhere in the Arab world must not be equated with the happenings in Nigeria. Any attempt to ape the civil evolutions in the Arab countries in Nigeria will spell catastrophe.”
