Selfish And Narrow Interests, Bane Of Nigeria's Development by Nobody: 10:24am On Jun 19, 2013
After a careful analysis of the Nigeria situation and slow development, I found completely missing in action, the will, desire and push for COLLECTIVE progress and development. What is very obvious is that selfish and narrow interests is the order of the day. The attitude of the average Nigerian, politicians and non-politicians, is every man for himself/his tribe and God for us all.

Consequently, the nation has seen very slow and staggered progress and development.

In this country, decisions, policies and programmes that ought to be directed at the COLLECTIVE good of all are skewed or tampered with to satisfy narrow and selfish interest. In the process, benefits of such decisions, policies and programmes are either delayed or LOST.

Even the average Nigerian do not see any reason to take ownership of the govt except for personal gains, ethnic or tribal sentiments.

Examples of this ugly situation and the aftermath abound:

1 The wrong siting of some of the NIPP power plants by the OBJ govt. OBJ sacrificed good business strategy and economy of scale on the alter of the narrow regional interest. As a result, Nigerians are yet to reap the full benefits of these power plants about 10yrs after.

2 The Yar Adua govt actually stopped the building of the power plants started by OBJ because he was uncomfortable with their location. Again, narrow interest stalling development. No doubt, some of the plants were wrongly located, but the solution cannot be outright stoppage of work.

3 The privatisation programme under the OBJ govt was marred by narrow and selfish interests. As a result, majority of the privatised companies are now DEAD, dying or worse off.

4 The hate for the current president by certain sections of the country. They have not given the president any chance of succeeding since he was elected in 2011. Reason? He does not satisfy their selfish and narrow ethnic and partisan interest.

5 It will be easier for a camel to pass through the eye of needle than to carry out the much needed re-structuring of the country. Why? Because the politicians have their eyes fixated on the oil money and so overlook the bigger picture. Again, narrow and selfish interest at play.

6 The first refinery in the country was built AND well managed by a private company, at a time when govt had no refinery. But 50yrs after, govt now has four dysfunctional refineries while the private sector has none. What happened? The govt in a populist, short-sighted move to buy political patronage, seized the private refinery and embarked on building of publicly owned refineries. That has now backfired. Today, Nigeria is biggest importer of refined petroluem products.

6 Siting of a refinery in Kaduna. Assuming the people that built a refinery in Kaduna were to build the refinery with money from their pockets, would they have chosen Kaduna as the location? Never. The problem of getting crude to the Kaduna refinery has been an extra burden.

7 What was the logic behind govt seizure of missionary schools? The govt was obviously pursueing the narrow interest of curtailing the spread of certain religion. That singular action killed quality and discipline in our school system. The result today is obvious.

8 Narrow and selfish interest is behind the mindless looting of our common wealth by public office holders.

I can go on and on. But until we put aside our narrow and selfish interest and pursue at all times, the COLLECTIVE good and interest, we will continue to falter as a nation.

The present structure of Nigeria and the SHARING of oil money in Abuja is the reason there is so MUCH poverty in the north. But the political leaders in the north, who are the microscopic-minority, will not support re-structuring simply because they benefit from the sharing of oil money. The majority, who are the poor in the north, are getting poorer in the current structure

Stop the lies and stay with facts.

There's nothing like N1billion feeding budget in the 2013. If there's any show us the link.

By the way, can you show us the feeding budget of past leaders so we can compare with the present? I guess you dont know because it was hidden from you. Was the feeding budget N10billion before? You dont know. Now you know because of the TRANSPARENT policies of the current govt. Now you know, so you can ask questions. And that is the way it should be.

Yes, the proposed N4billion for the first lady mission house or whatever was made in pursuit of narrow interest. But good to know the senate did their JOB by deleting the proposal.

The president did not buy any brand new jets. He continued the payment for what was ordered by previous govts. Otherwise, show us any report to buttress your claim. And if the president ordered for jets when they are not needed, it should be condemned by all.

The issue of buying N1billion imported dustbin in 2010 was wrong but does not relate to the topic.

The bold is the only part worth attending to Mr. insincere 9gerian. For the fact the Senate was the ones to expunged the 4 billion naira mission house from the budget tells you what about the president?


The Federal Government today at the weekly cabinet meeting approved the purchase of three new presidential jets, at a cost of $150 million. They will comprise two Falcon 7X aircraft from France's Dassault Aviation, and one Gulfstream G550 from the United States.

The curious decision to go shopping for additional presidential aircraft comes on the heels of another, by the Minister of Finance, to increase Nigeria's debt profile dramatically by borrowing $4 billion from international creditors. The new jets would be added to the presidential fleet, which was previously described as being too large by former president Olusegun Obasanjo. He took the opportunity of that assessment to sell off some of the jets to his friends and cronies. Obasanjo had earlier in his administration purchased two jets, one of them a Boeing

Business Jet (BBJ). The other, a Gulfstream G550, was allocated to the office of the Vice President. When reporters questioned the age of the BBJ, two of them— AIT's Mike Aruleba and Rotimi Durojaiye of Daily Independent—were arrested and charged with sedition. The charges were later dropped as lawyer Femi Falana challenged the validity of the charges in court.

According to Yahoo Answers: “The purchase price of a new Gulfstream G550 ranges from US$45 million to $70 million and could be much higher depending on numerous configurations, options, paint and such…Variable operating costs (fuel, maintenance, trip expenses) are around $2,300 per hour while overall ownership expenses (including maintenance, storage, crew costs and insurance) could be around $600,000 per year…

This does not include costs for periodic maintenance procedures such as $1,000,000 for an engine rebuild, $ 200,000 for a paint job or $300,000 if you want your interior refitted…” Analysts believe that the new jets will position Jonathan and his top aides for his presidential run. Speaking to us in Abuja, one of them questioned purchases like this only a few months after Jonathan came to power, and at a time he is criticizing corruption and lack of transparency in the
country.

“This is the Nigerian economy at the frontal service of the
PDP,” he said.

We all know these problems exist in our society. Let us forget our past mistakes and focus on the present and future. The way to redemption is not easy and its also not difficult.
For the present,the leader which is the president in this case has about 80% role to play in correcting this wrongs. He sets examples and behaves in a way which he expects his followers to emulate. He is responsible for shaping the psychology of his followers through his own actions either positive or negative. We human beings in turn naturally follow whoever we look up to as a leader.

In this case, GEJ who is the leader is a crook,he associates himself with similar crooks, he pardons his corrupt associates and gives his friends a free hand to steal while he looks the other way. He even pays out large sums of money to militants for a boondoggle. Then he presents himself as a decent person to nigerians. Why are you then lamenting that selfishness and greed is the order of the day. You can see that the reason is not farfetched, it obviously from the Top.

It is impossible to try to be diplomatic between good and evil which is what GEJ is doing and that's why some people hate him so much and disrespect him. You're either good or bad. If your pretend to be both you lose your value among followers.

Now for the future, the solution is come 2015 No to GEJ, No to cluelessness, no to corruption

please enlighten me on the above, I really want to know how these people you talk of have hindered the president from performing.

Stupid write up. The reasons for the siting of the power projects have already been given . So no need to go back there. Those reasons are cogent enough.
However trying to deflect the incompetence and inadequacies of the present occupant of the villa,NA WASH.
OBJ paid for 8 new power plant and the overhaul of others.
If you have a problem with the present location of the power plants, what stops GEJ from building his own power plant bearing in mind that nigeria under him , nigeria is earning twice as much as she did when OBJ was in power. Would that not have satisfied the tribal ego of the pygmies who would never see any thing good in progress?
The power plant OBJ built were spread between the SW,SS,SC.SE
NOTHING STOPS GEJ OR WHOMEVER HAS A BEEF FROM BUILDING HIS OWN POWER PLANTS.HE CAN SITE IT ANYWHERE HE WANTS.

LIAR! I knew you'll fall for my trap. Now, let me flog you intellectually.

In November 2009, the Yar'adua govt announced a phased replacement of aircraft in the presidential air fleet. The govt put in motion arrangement to buy 4 new aircrafts between 2010 and 2012. This was widely reported. On of such reports is partly reproduced below:

"ABUJA - THE Federal Government has clarified that the proposed four new aircraft BEING (emphasis mine) procured for the Presidential Air Fleet are not meant for President Umaru Yarâ Adua and Vice President Goodluck Jonathan,but that they are to be used by the Senate President, Speaker of the House of Representatives, the Chief Justice of the Federation and other top principal officers ofthe central government.."- November 2009

“It’s not even enough.” He also explained that out of the N1.305
billion, “the Federal Executive Council (FEC) holds every Wednesday
and we take care of them through this budget.” Ogbile then reeled
out some other expenses that were taken care of in the refreshment

National Merit Award, Children’s Day, hosting of dignitaries.

I have established the facts with regards to purchase of aircrafts and its clear for every normal human being to see (from my previous posts and links above):

1 The Yar govt began the process of purchasing 4 aircrafts in 2009. The 4 aircrafts were to be purchased over 3yrs, ie 2010 to 2012.

2 Yar Adua died in early 2010, Jonathan took over and continued with the plan.

Anyone who still doesn't understand this simply fact is definitely abnormal and needs help. No more response from me on this issue.

Pls must every topic be politicised?

@ topic: I'd rather we go back to days of provincial autonomy, where every province generate income to develop their regions and as well generate income for the federal government.
While the fed government in turn will use available funds to execute capital projects in all her territories.

I could remember reading a book in which it was written how there were healthy competitions in the textile industries between regions in Nigeria; most especially between the textile factory in the then Bendel state and that of Kaduna state.

There were competition between the colanut farmers in the north and those of the southwest.

But the sweet part of these competitions were the zeal and pride of mega completed projects in all the regions.

As of then, regions with definable capital projects will have a Native authority headquarter built in their area.

But then, white men were prime ministers and traditional rulers were the heads of provinces.

I could really use a wish right now for Nigeria. Let the whole old wines in new bottles go away and let new agile and intelligent leaders take up the tasks.

God help our lands.
