MESSAGE TO NIGERIAN GOVERNMENT. From studies,it was observed that,Empowering d ppl goes beyond helping them earn an income or get a job,it requires a fundamental reordering of our society. E.g,in so far as Nig is an integrated whole,it doesn't help the underprivileged if they are assisted to buy motorcycles,bore hole or given handset. If at the same time,they can't fuel those machines or are unable to keep their children in school because the school teachers are not paid,simply because some politicians are stockpiling funds to contest the next election. The central issue in the empowerment of the ordinary Nig is economic,but nt in the sense of giving a few thousand of naira,rather,the problem lies in redefing d value of d naira 2d dollar. With d naira exchanging at close to N160 to a dollar,and Nig operating a liberal import regime,every available naira is deployed to chase the ever expanding demand for foreign consumer goods. Consequently,d search 4 economic empowerment will remain a mirage.
