Look at Dubai; it took Dubai more than three decades........“They didn’t do this overnight, Does this woman even reflect before saying these damning things? http://www.vanguardngr.com ![]() https://www.bellanaija.com/2016/04/jonathans-administration-had-zero-political-will-to-save-but-obasanjo-did-ngozi-okonjo-iweala/ “Our trade will never grow as long as we don’t specialise among ourselves, and that means that some of us have to get into manufacturing, we have to industrialise more, so that we can send different goods to different countries. Madam, you had 5yrs (2nd chance that most never get in life) to do this but No, "No will to save" was the excuse... Talking about industrialization, same government talking about rice revolution then was granting rice import waivers to party jobbers, thereby under cutting genuine farmers and defeating the purpose..... smoke and mirrors revolution. 45 Likes 7 Shares |

cktheluckyman: No I don't understand!! ![]() Make me understand that "there is no hard and fast route to diversification/economic boom, that "slow and steady wins the race" like the case of the Arab Jewel UAE. Explain to me that no great nation is import dependent like it's the case here, how going industrial and becoming a net exporter is the route to unfettered independence. School me about the heavy disadvantage inherent in mob action trade. Where most people are in the same line of business and ensuring over saturation of specifics and no diversity, which means redundancy in some areas and severe lack in some much needed sectors... ![]() Pa Chuks, It took less than a minute to read & totally grasp her points which though are accurate but too little too late. She "co-ordinated" the bountiful harvest but locust years of never before seen oil prices that could have helped chart the course easily instead of the severe hardship being felt now!!!

bayelsaowei:You just accused the mallam of not diversifying after spending only 1 year in a famine. But you praise and worship the ones who spent 16 years (of which the last 7 years was characterised with plenty), but they kept depending solely on 1 product (oil) and couldnt do anything to diversify. They couldnt even build a single modular refinery or at least repair the old ones. They also spent 16 years without doing anything to restructure; meanwhile out of these 16 years, NOI was minister for up to 12 years; and some smart ass now thinks the mallam is bad for not diversifying in 1 year, even though NOI has just pointed out that it took Dubai 30 years to diversify and get to where it is today. With the above, do you still think that thing you wrote up there makes any bit of sense?... It might probably make enough sense for people within your level of reasoning, enough sense for you to get some like minds toss a few 'likes' at you. 34 Likes 5 Shares |

bayelsaowei:Go back and read your previous comment, you are the one who tried to compare the woman with Buhari. But now you know she wasnt the president. You started by insulting the president that he cant think beyond oil, I only reminded you that it was too early to pass such judgement. After only 1 year, if you think buhari is so useless in terms of thinking only about oil, then the past regime was 5 times more useless for also also thinking about only oil and putting the nation in its present predicaments. 18 Likes |

bayelsaowei: Which proponent of diversification? She was finance minister of Nigeria for about 10 years for God sake, what diversification policy did she propose? She was the person who was suppose the formulate the revenue generating policies of the country but what did she do? She was granting waivers up and down, killing local industries. She even granted waivers on such mundane items like rice and vehicles.Then her other "diversification" policy is to mouth savings, without doing anything to get the federal government to save. She was more obsessed to saving the revenue due to the governors. i do not know where saving became a diversification policy. 10 Likes |
