In an online interaction, Sowore said universities, oil producing communities and other national institutions who rely on the FG finances will be allocated oil wells. Hear his argument.

Sowore, the only condition I will vote you is if you promise the balkanization of the contraption, if not, you can and take a deep dive in the lagoon

Do u have any idea how corrupt some VC and staff of universities are..u now what to give them oil well..!!!

No

No

No

The oil is for Nigeria.. Not for a school abeg..!!

This will not improve educational standard in anyway abeg..

U only want those blood sucking lecturers and enemies of progress to have bigger pockets which will lead to a even worse educational system..!!

Dead on Arrival. He wouldn't even win one Yoruba state not to talk of other zones. He thinks campaigns are done on social media and not on the streets ? The average Nigerian doesn't even know he exists.

Funding won't be an issue if each Federal Universities has an oil well rather than giving same to individuals that have amassed so much money that they do not know what to do with it again.

Who own and attend those schools? Togolese? or how has the wealth made from oil wells by Danjuma, Alakija, Atiku and the rest affect your life?

Me and my family have decided, Omoyele Sowore for president

While I have not properly thought through this idea, I must applaud Sowore for coming up with policies to improve our nation. The only guaranteed way to fail, is not to try. An idea will beget more ideas.

Sowore2019. Take it back

Off course there are commercially unviable wells that can be given to institution for research purposes.

What will be wrong if they are given the commercial viable ones for funding purposes?

Sowore is a worst human being than Buhari. Happy that only the people in the sahara reporters office support him

I'm sure you are smart, provide a proof to backup your claim?

Then be prepared to give wells to Health sector, state governors, Power ministry etc

Another nonsensical proposal that indicates Sowore doesn’t have the first clue about economics or governance, and is simply making things up on the hoof without even bothering to consult expert opinion. Nothing I have heard from Sowore so far indicates he’d be any better than Buhari if he managed by some miracle to win the Presidential elections.

Why won’t any of the many highly qualified Nigerians in or outside of the country step forward to seek the job? Nigeria badly needs a leader who has a clue and is humble enough to recognise where he needs specialist help. Instead we’re currently stuck with a geriatric, an economically ignorant “youth” of 47, and several recycled looters in the PDP.

Calm down, why not take time out to highlight what is wrong with that proposal rather than mixing thing up. Tell us why it is economically sound to allocate such oil wells to individuals rather than universities or oil producing communities.

Is that your proposal?

sowore2019:
Is that your proposal?

No, my prediction.

Complete and utter nonsense.

Where in the world is that done? The universities will simply plung into anarchy and a free for all fight for wealth worse than anything we have seen.

Improve the funding to the university by setting up an independent body of incorruptible experts in each geo political zone, whose job will be to get funds from the FG, liase with the universities on areas of technical needs, consult with the best tertiary institutions in Europe and North America, and then gradually buy when necessary or copy their system with respect to technologies, staff and student welfare, and academics, to plug the technical loopholes in our education system .

There should be visible accomplishments every year in that regard.

By the time this is faithfully carried out in 5-10 years, we will start seeing visible improvement.

In 20 years under that system ,and we will be approaching world class standards.

But it takes planning, foresight, integrity and dedication, and Nigeria is not good at that.

Because it hasn't been done elsewhere doesn't mean we cannot do it.
From the bolded, how will the so called expert get the funding from FG? when the government is already complaining of insufficient funds. Don't forget that many universities are already venturing in other businesses to augment FG subvention, what will be wrong if they are allocated a viable oil well that will provide enough fund to run the school and relieves government and parent of students rather than just enriching an individual.
On your claim of anarchy in the system, VC's and university council are appointed by the government with a tenure, they can easily be dealt with, a recent example is what happened at FUNAAB, the VC and council chairman were removed and arrainged.

The viable oil wells you want to give the university should remain under the control of the govt.
And funds from those dedicated oil wells should be pumped into the education sector via the independent body of experts.

On no account, should universities control oil wells.

He won't even win his family sef let alone polling unit. The statements he made here just proves how shallow he thinks of governance. Just clownish.

But they are currently not under government control, it has been allocated to the Alakija's, Danjuma etc and these people have made so much money that they do not know what to do with it again.
There's no need for any independent body of experts, that's why we have the University council.

You this boy, come here.

I no tell you make u no try to pull a Trump on Nigerians?

You sha wan waste your money...

Are you going to give every university an oil well? We have over a 100 universities. That would be unfeasible because oil wells don't all have the same oil bearing capacities.

What have the university council done with the responsibility they have been given? All the billions allocated over the years.
They have been as corrupt as the alakijas.

Funds need to be utilised at the lowest level of bureaucracy and corruption for it to be effective in Nigeria.

Aren't you tired of the slavery by the elites or are you among them? We should translate our anger on how things are being run into actions. These people we are talking about are not jinn.

Which oil well? Lol


You think by becoming a president, you can withdraw licenses from current owners of oil wells? Lmao!

Sowore is talking about federal universities and not all, also the governing council are consituted body under authority of the government, they can easily be monitored and prosecuted if found wanting unlike an individual.
