Former President, Olusegun Obasanjo,
has attributed Nigeria’s lack of progress
to failure of successive governments to
continue with good policies put in
place by their predecessors. Obasanjo made the observation while
speaking during a panel of discussion
organised by Africa Finance
Corporation, AFC, in Abuja, on Tuesday. The former President also pointed out
that the African continent has been
unable to develop due to the penchant
of its leaders to discontinue the few
things that had done right.
According to the former President, “I
remember taking 40 young and up-
coming Africans to Singapore some
years back. Lee Kuan Yew hadn’t
written his book “from Third World to
First World,”and we wanted him to tell us how he did it. “We wanted to know the magic and
Yew told us there was no magic.
“He said: There is no magic. We did a
few things right and we continue to do
them right. We in Africa have done a
few things right. Our problem is that
we don’t continue to do them right.
“Many things are wrong about Africa
but a few are right. We should
continue to do those things that are
right.”
