Lai Mohammed: A Masquerade Can Create Jobs For 1,000 Men by rolchi(m): 5:10pm On May 03, 2016 |
Lai Mohammed, minister of information and culture, says dressing masquerades could create a thousand jobs per week for Nigerian men. Speaking at the sectoral debate of the federal house of representative in Abuja on Tuesday, Mohammed said most states in Nigeria have one festival or the other. “Most states today have more than one festival a year, but the packaging and lack of capacity has not enabled them to make the most out of these festivals,” he said. “There’s a particular masquerade in the south east, it takes 100 people to dress him, another 100 people to UnCloth him. “If this masquerade is well-packaged, it can provide employment in one week for more than 1000 young men. These are some of the untapped potentials.” Mohammed explained that Nigeria has the oldest forest in the world in terms of biodiversity for tourists to visit, but tourists are discouraged by bribing and insecurity in the country. “I worked in the airport for 10 years, and I know that if you want your passport stamped as a foreigner, you slip $100 into your passport. No tourist would come back to a country where he has to bribe immigration to enter. “No tourist would come to a country where, when he leaves immigration, he enters a ‘one-chance’ taxi or ‘one-chance’ bus. It’s a holistic problem and these are all contained in the national tourism master plan, which I would make available to the house. “We must make a difference between tourist sites and tourist attractions; what we have in Nigeria are tourist sites. They are not tourist attractions. “You need infrastructure to convert a tourist site to a tourist attraction. If you don’t have infrastructure, it would always remain a tourist site, “In Cross Rivers reserve park, Nigeria has the oldest forest in the whole world. It is the oldest in terms of biodiversity, and we have this very rare, white-mane gorilla in that area, but because my people in Cross River have decided to turn them to bush meat, they have now escaped.” Source: https://www.thecable.ng/lai-one-masquerade-can-create-jobs-for-1000-men 15 Likes 5 Shares

Tourism is the highest revenue in Tunisia today. Nigerians are known for criticisms. I believe 90% will criticise him. But there is truth in what he said. Creativity is the key. some Nigerians are so wicked to the extent they don't want good for their country. And they will not know peace in their life..... you better repent!!!!!! It mustn't be during the festival events along.Every weekends at Tourism centers, cultural events can be organize for tourists. Some people is there family's tradition (masquerade) or heritage. Some family no matter how rich you are,you must do it atleast once. How you will think outside the box(When hungry sama/ fire you) Your brain=Box. Your open eyes are seeing outside box..... When you see your environment,you will create avenues for food. Only some few Masquerades that only come out ones in a year. Others do parade the street to catch fun and make money. Tourism centres on weekends, there will cultural displays and dance,traditional modelling (you can bring your wife in Ankara to cat/fish walk or elephant walk if she is fat). Normal Masquerades perform and recite poetries. Your children can give symposiums or poems,I will clap and drop something. That will get he/she note books for a term. Papa Emeka can sell soft drinks and sachets water, while you can sell cigarettes and hard drinks. Mallam Adamu will sell his Suya, he will not fight you people in the bush. Mama Kayode can sell rice and beans at one corner. Mama Abdullahi can sell Kunu and Zobo just close to the gate. All these people are doing something,instead of poke nosing, back biting&backfiring, gossiping and stealing. While me at the weekends, I will come catch fun,relax and flex away troubled system of hard work. Mr Lai Muhammed's ''Half a word is enough for the wise''..... 124 Likes 15 Shares |

I don die finish this is what happens when you have desperados masquerading as commandos in power. It is too certain that if Buhari will excel the likes of Lying Mohammed, Fashola, Amaechi, Danbazzau, Audu Ogbeh, and other clowns in his cabinet will only sink him deeper into the Abyss of nothingness. 168 Likes 17 Shares |

Tourism if properly harnessed will be a major plus for the country. “In Cross Rivers reserve park, Nigeria has the oldest forest in the whole world. It is the oldest in terms of biodiversity, and we have this very rare, white-mane gorilla in that area, but because my people in Cross River have decided to turn them to bush meat, they have now escaped.” Lol Chai...Lai Mohammed Na wa for you. 65 Likes 9 Shares |

Pinocchio. Why don't you people's children be the masquerades? So while children of the poor become masquerades/ masquerade attendants, children of the rich get fixed in CBN. My people, there you have it!!! These people have no plan for the masses!! Modified: On second thought, I took a deeper look into the possibility of a masquerade been dressed up by 100 people and unclothed by another 100. It sounds like a good job to me...you get to work only on festival days and you're off for the remaining part of the year with perks, bonuses and the prestige of being a masquerade dresser. I make diligent search but find out there's no where in the south east where a masquerade gets dressed by 200 persons. I realize it's another scam. I feel disappointed but wait patiently for 2019.

Very true. We have so many past and present political masquerades in naija busy creating job for their cronies. To dress masquerades for campain in naija...to rig election for such masquerades...and to work with such masquerades have produced the likes of Dizeani...dasuki...tafa balogun...lai himself...and others. 12 Likes 2 Shares |
