Nigeria - In meeting up with its corporate social responsibility, the Africa-Trinidad and Tobago Steelpan Development Company (ATTSDC) donated a complete set of steelpans for a fifteen-man band to the Nigerian Military School (NMS). In a presentation ceremony witnessed by very senior serving and retired Military officers including General GO Ogumudia (rtd), the CEO of ATTSDC—who is an Ex-Boy (former student) of the school—stated that the donation was to inculcate the steelpan culture in the boys (students) of the school.
According to the CEO, Chief Bowie S. Bowei, the steelpan art form which is currently spreading across Nigeria presents great opportunities for professionals, entertainers and entrepreneurs.

Boy, that FELLAH dey call BUGS real smart, eh!!!
The man figure out this whole DIAZ HUSTLE five years ago and is only now all this BACCHANAL coming to light.
In the interest of PAN TRINBAGO clearing its name, and since BERTEL GITTENS is now a BIG WIG in this new PAN TRINBAGO ADMINISTRATION -- I am calling on BEVERLEY and BERTEL to step up and CLEAR PAN TRINBAGO'S NAME. And also to RELEASE the FORENSIC AUDIT which I know they have in their possession. As well as reaching out to MR. BOWEI and apologizing on behalf of the PAN PEOPLE and the PAN GOVERNMENT of TRINIDAD and TOBAGO.
I cannot believe that BUGS is so smart and FIGURE out this WHOLE HUSTLE FIVE YEARS AGO.
Ah fraid BUGS, now!!!
Hey Claude boi, what position yuh give meh in PTB boi?! All I do is apply for the cleaners' wok, and was not successful.

CONSULTANT on how to push pan?
Claude
That was a pivotal moment. It was moment that the PT gangtas knew they could get away with anything. Lock the people between patriotism and nationalism and all reason goes out the door. Even George Goddard's son fell for it. And that really surprised me.

Trini money in Nigeria.
How did you come to this conclusion Cecil?

Bugs,
What was the beef with Bowie about 2-3years ago?
Diaz tried to steal Bowie's company. Bowie's company and what he has been doing in pan is very well documented on WST - luckily for him. Show me where one dollar of Trini money has gone to Nigeria. In fact it seems like the flow is going the other way. I never heard anyone who has met or worked with Bowie say anything negative about him. Salah and others have all said great things about him.

There is much more here that isnt said. Is Pan Trinbago still a pardner here, and if not, how did they get out? We all saw the grand launch to this company, it included Government Ministers of T&T, whats happening with it now?
