Warning: Annotation contains spoiler for the cut-off last line of text in the strip, in case anyone is actually trying to work out what it says...
Notable webcomic artist Randy Milholland of Something Positive recently tried to collect a year's day-job salary from PayPal donations (only US$22,000 in his case, not $4.6 billion). Amazingly, he managed to do so. He said that if he achieved his target he'd quit his day job and concentrate on improving the quantity and quality of his webcomic work.
Pretty cool, huh? If you have a buck or two to spare, why not go help him out a bit more?
Oh, and yes, Nigeria's federal budget is US$4.6 billion, as taken from the CIA World Factbook. But the Nigerian Government's official website is actually at http://www.nigeria.gov.ng/, not the URL shown in the strip.
The day this strip appeared, the official Nigerian Government website looked like this. I kid you not; that's an actual screen capture. Now if we take at face value what the real Nigerian Finance Minister says on that page, then there are over 1.3 million dishonest Nigerians.
