Halliburton banned in Nigeria for losing radioactive materials

Speaking of bribes...Halliburton is under investigation by the Justice Department for allegedly bribing Nigerian officials.

That's the good news (seeing who runs the Justice Department): Nigeria has banned Halliburton for...losing radioactive materials that could be used to make a dirty bomb!!

The two radioactive materials, which contained caesium-137, were reported missing by Halliburton while in transit between the southern Nigerian oil cities of Warri and Port Harcourt in December 2002. Efforts by the Federal Government to recover the lost radioactive materials since 2002, which has taken government officials to Germany where the materials were transferred, have not yielded results.

Isn't this ironic--Halliburton losing radioactive components for a dirty bomb even as their former boss worried about Saddam slipping such components to terrorists?
