The Daily Caveat doesn't delve into politics too often (much less Nigerian politics) but there's a story in the May 30th issue of DC political rag, The Hill that's worth reading.

The article details the export of U.S.-style campaign tactics to the democracies in the developing world. Amongst the many prominent players who got a piece of the election action was The James Mintz Group, investigative alma mater for The Daily Caveat.

According to The Hill article, U.S. Justice Department Foreign Agents Registration Office documentation shows that the Mintz Group took in about $16,000 for research and consulting services.
