What Solution Would You Make If Made Nigeria's President by azibit: 6:08pm On Jul 10, 2015
Most of the time you see Nigerians discusing the issues of Nigeria, people are always talking about problems and no solutions . What Solution would you provide if made the president?
Let's see how Nigerians want Nigeria to be in the next decade

-->INDEPENDENCE OF STATES ON FG
-Each state should set up large hectares of lands for agriculture. Each should cultivate crops adaptable to their climate and weather eg cocoa to the west, onions and groundnut to the north, cassava and palm kernel to the east etc.
-By setting up huge farms, the problem of unemployment to an extent will be reduced by employing jobless youths.
-Each state should also set up a unique industry capable of transforming resources within them into wealth eg kaduna state could set up textile industries that can use cultivated cotton found within its reach and transforming to marketable finished products.
-States should also go into mining the vast mineral resources abandoned by previous governments and converting them to incomes for the states.

-->MORE INVESTMENT INTO RENEWABLE ENERGY
-More investments should be made in renewable energy by building more dams. The Kainji dam has been a consistent supplier of about 800MW of power on a daily basis. If more dams of the same or greater power capacity can be constructed in areas near the ocean or water like Lagos, Bayelsa, Rivers etc, the power sector will improve dramatically. The advantages of dams to gas plants in use nowadys is its consistency and reliability. Gas plants rely heavily on gas supply from pipelines, which over the years have been consistently vandalized. If funds used by previous administrations to set up these disappointing gas plants were invested in more dams, the power situation would have been more positive.

-->MAKE GOVT POSITIONS LESS ATTRACTIVE
-The constitution should be amended in a way that government officials don't have a direct access to state treasury. By doing this, people going into politics to get rich will be greatly discouraged.
-The salaries and entitlements of legislators should be drastically reduced in line with the minimum wages of nigerians. At present their salaries are 275 times higher than the minimum wage.

-->INVESTMENTS IN REFINERIES
More refineries should be setup, if possible each state having at least one. This will reduce the power of the cabals and oil marketers who have over the years caused nigerians unbearable hardships.

-->FESTIVALS TO PROMOTE ETHNIC EQUALITY
On a yearly basis, festivals that promote togetherness and equality of the different ethnic groups should be setup. By doing so, the problem of secession and rebellious activities will be minimized.

Push for all nations that were forced into Nigeria to go their separate ways.

Enough of this madness.

in addition to your first point you made, create enormous storage facilities for our farm produce mostly our cash crops, it will help much in the time of scarcity.

Hope I made sense?
