President Muhammadu Buhari yesterday called for more concerted effort, creative and innovative ideas from the Nigerian Society of Engineers (NSE) in reversing the infrastructure deficit in the country, saying “Nigerian problems require uniquely Nigerian solutions’’.

Receiving a delegation of the NSE led by the President, Council of the Nigerian Society of Engineers, Adekunle Mokuolu, he said reversing the deficit will require indigenous capacity.
He said that the government has deliberately structured policies to favour more local content and capacity

“Over the years, Nigerian engineers have been recognized globally for carrying out amazing and impactful projects. Unfortunately, this is not the case here at home as for decades, the enabling environment was simply not provided for these innovative and creative professionals to flourish and showcase our country as an engineering hub,” he said.

The president urged the professionals to look inward in showcasing their knowledge and skill in a way that will directly impact the nation.

“We introduced Executive Orders and embarked on several infrastructure development and rehabilitation projects. As a Government, we also prioritized local content in our procurement processes,” he added.

Buhari asked the engineers to continue to support Government at all levels to build a more prosperous society.

In his remarks, Mokuolu commended the President for expressing his belief in local capacity in 2009 at an NSE conference.

The NSE President said the engineering society had been playing a strategic role in the Economic Recovery and Growth Plan and had established a North East Rehabilitation Committee, while presenting a list of requests to the President, which includes involving members in conceptual stages of projects

Mokuolu said the council had started domestication of global codes and standards, noting that it now has 75 branches spread across the country, with two in foreign cities, Houston and London.

Bless God!

We thank President Mohammadu Buhari for his enormous effort to suppress the manslaughter of citizen related to Xenophobic act in SA and in the Northeast part of Nigeria. God will continue to raise you up sir.

For the various amenities and development you promised Nigeria during your campaign in 2015 which your administration already fulfil... may God continue to reward you, your family and your subordinate

Up PMB!!! PMB 4 LIFE

But same FG have not been doing anything about the suggestions made by average Nigerians.

Politicians should do what they are elected for instead of telling us different stories daily

revolution, you mean?

The elections happened this year.
You had the opportunity to CHANGE him.
You had the last 4 years to assess him.

You saw no positive change in the last 4 years.
You voted for him in his re-election.
What were you expecting, a Miracle?






Nigerians abeg who do us this thing?

Hmm like u care

Same rhetoric, when the leader lacks ideas, yet same leader is suppressing followers who has one.

wow

Yeah

The best way to solve our problems uniquely is to tackle it from the grassroots. Imagine if Nigeria university produces 1500 engineers every year without any form of innovation motivation. Most of the tech around the world usually comes from their higher institutions. But here, it's a story...


Encourage innovation from our high institutions. University certificate should not just be a paper but practical that yield results.

In 5 years u can't build an hospital where u can get treatment yet u are saying this. Sir you are a dunce

All these na excuse for failing to profer solutions to Nigeria's problem.

Uniquely abi?

Pls Mr President do u patronise our medical centres whenever u fall sick or does any of ur family member do same?

D same answer to all questions every now and then,on how we can collectively assist ourselves while y’all travel elsewhere to get ur stuff done.

May God heal our land.

Dis country heat too much jaare.

Our presido just dey yarn yen yen yen dey go
