STEVE YOUNG: “You are now beginning to train a corps of very experienced engineers, high-technology technicians, and people who are going to benefit the wider economy. That also is a very good effect that the Nigerians get in investing in high-tech programs. They've got to develop their economy, and that's one of the ways they do that is by doing this.”
他还称：“你们正开始训练一批富有经验的工程师，懂得高科技的技术家和那些将在更多经济领域创造利益的人民。那也是尼日利亚着手在高科技项目上投资的良好结果。他们不得不发展经济，而这正是他们发展经济的一种出路。
