There MANDELA showed him SOUTH AFRICA's modern telecommunication systems. It was so good that OBASANJO made a call to ABACHA in hell and talked to him for 5 minutes! The bill for the call came to only ABOUT 10 , 000.
When OBJ CAME back, he wanted NIGERIA's telecommunication systems to be better. Suitable arrangements were made. MANDELA visited the telecom department and talked to MBEKI in hell for 5 minutes. But this time, the bill was 5 NAIRA ONLY!
MANDELA asked with a sarcastic smile - "Why are telephone calls to hell so CHEAP in NIGERIA?"
A high level diplomat gave a smiling reply - "From NIGERIA to hell, it is a local call, Sir, while from SOUTH AFRICA it is long distance!".
