Quotes

"Leaving the oil underground does not translate to losses but saving. We must learn to save. The oil under the soil is still our oil. We must not exploit every resource simply because we have it. This is simple wisdom" (Environmental Rights Action/Friends of the Earth Nigeria, 2011)
"Mbakini Bridge in Kavaini sub location and the road to Mwingi Hospital should be repaired immediately" said Mutambu
"We will use our regulatory power to shut down these transmitters" he said. The self-allocated frequencies, according to Wangusi, are on the reserved guard bands...
Filippo La Rosa, Diplomatic Advisor to the Mayor of Rome, opened the press conference with a message from Gianni Alemanno: "Roma Capitale is honoured to be a part of this initiative, along with the UN Rome-based Food Agencies (FAO, IFAD, WFP) and Bioversity International. This initiative is worthy of praise because it helps to keep attention on the tragedy that today still condemns almost 900 million people to suffer from hunger. On Sunday 21st October, on the occasion of the Hunger Run, I invite Rome to run through the streets of the capital, remembering that each of us, in his or her own small way, through participation and commitment, can make their own personal contribution to the fight against hunger and poverty."
