It's called something for the boys

Doesn't happen in the SW where I live

ekt_bear: 6 steps forward, half a dozen steps backwards

Negro_Ntns: @op,

......we are stuck in the middle!

It is good for thd society to produce at above 100%. Theoretically, efficiency of above 100% is also possible, however, when you factor in human experience....loosely called "work ethics"....then efficiency level of between 80% and 95% are desirable. The problem is the closer you get to this desirable range then the less hands you need to turn out results, which means more people have nothing to do and are sitting idle on payroll. So you fire them! That increases unemplymrnt and impacts family and households. It is therefore not a bad policy to keep people building up and tearing things down....the rework and cost is an undesirable redundancy but it helps family and household.

Dede1: Nigeria is definitely on a backward slide. It is also called socio-political behavior marred by inherent stupidity. The description in the OP is a mark of inherent foolishness registered among Africans which deletes the essence of CPM in their everyday circle of thought. In addition, it is an extroversive display to excite moronic cross section of people by dunces who were spurred by errs of personality.

When new Owerri capital territory came to public notice, I inquired about the subsystems of wastewater collection and drinking water supply plans. The subsystem plans would have required the main pipes for these basic systems should be laid out in conjunction with the network of roads. The main pipes that will carry wastewater and drinking water had to run beneath the roads. Today, the new Owerri territory is recklessly besieged by individual boreholes and sewage wells.

dirifred: This your observation is very key to sustainable development.
1 The sincerity of the Executive(Federal or State) is what matters. most of those project are abandoned projects. they award fresh project as a cover-up for not completing the former project.
2 Continuity : every Executive want to make a mark, but only by abandoning what he me on ground or destroying them for fresh ideas. this can be taken care of if the legislative arm know their job. i mean what will it cost to develop a twenty year development plan for any state or country? even if developed will it be followed?
3 Over politicization of project: the need of the people does not matter, what will be more beneficial to their political needs at the moment is their priority.
sorry if the lines are disjointed,i wrote in a hurry, no time to edit. but that's about the picture in my mind

olenyi:

So u are suggesting that in order to put food on the table of the populace, government should therefore continue on this part of wasteful adventures all? Hmmm... My question then is, was this how America, which almost everyone is rushing to was built? #Just asking.

Negro_Ntns:

.....We dont need to use America as a model or reference point of social developments on our land. I advocate for policies that has a direct or indirect positive outcome for the populace.

7lives: It is called squandering of riches, this is how Nigeria arrived at the present predicament.

onitshaigbo: Lagos and Igbo Southeast is moving forwards. But the rest of Nigeria is going backwards. God save Nigeria.

anulaxad: we are moving backwards extremely fast from economic boom in 1970s to corruption and a killing population.
