Nigeria Is Blessed. Pls, Take Time To Read And Digest. by darexkey(m): 8:55am On Nov 03, 2014 |
#COPIED i found this article online and decided to share it with fellow nairalanders cos it's so informative and educative. It's a food for thought for all of us. NIGERIA is blessed The landmass outside Lagos is so astonishing. If a mini state like Lagos can generate over N400b in internal revenue just imagine the possibilities in states like Yobe, Niger, Taraba or Oyo. My goodness. And before we begin to lay emphases on Lagos being a coastal region. Dubai aint a coastal region. Dubai has the same dessert terrain like Sokoto and the rest. Yet they were able to use their resources to develop their terrain. I sat back and imagine what Zanfara would have looked like if the excess crude revenue was used to develop the world's biggest solar power panel thats powers Africa's first Health Care City housing over 3,000 medical experts and professionals around the world. I sat back and imagined what Bayelsa would look like with the world's largest fruit hub sitting in its capital. And all fruits are sourced from Jos where a 600,000hecters fruit farm is situated I sat back and imagined what Gombe would look like if our crude revenue was duly utilized to convert Kofa Gamji (wildlife park) into one of the world's to 10 wildlife tourist centers with temperature controlled zoos that can accommodate Penguins, Dolphin and Bears so on. I sat back and imagined the world's largest roller coaster sitting around the curves of Olumo Rock in Ogunstate. Attracting thousands of tourist around Nigeria. I sat back and imagine Onitsha bustling with activities as goods and products are produced and chucked out in mass to Primark UK, Apple USA... from its 2 state owned cargo airport and artificial sea port thats connected to the world's 2nd largest canal (Niger Canal) that connects ships from the Atlantic way up through Onitsha through Benue through Abuja to Kano Sea Port (an artificial sea port) were Tons of Ground nuts, Cotton from other neighboring northern states are being exported abroad. I sat back and imagined what a state like Benue would look like if we built the world's biggest yam silos in Otukpo...from our Crude revenue. I imagined. I imagined embarking on a one week family holiday to Kebbi state were Africa's first 9star aquatic hotel and the world's biggest underwater world zoo is been commissioned to kick start the UN recognized, commonwealth endorsed fishing festival. Argungu festival. The event was covered by our rebranded globally recognized new station NTA. I imagined taking a ride to visit my peeps on our high speed train that linked over 6000 passengers daily from Lagos to Ibadan in just 30minute. I imagined forgetting I owned a car in lasgidi as I rode on our wifi GPRS controlled taxi from Surulere to Lekki... I imagined having to explain to my grand children what a generator looked like. Yes I imagined. But in the midst of my euphoria.... reality dawned when PHCN sized the light. Deep sigh... ...and I ask, will my imagination ever become my reality or will my reality remain a fragment of my imagination? ? ? ? God Has Blessed Nigeria. Its up to us to enjoy or endure that blessing.
