How do we advance from where we are?

First, we need to realise that the development of an economy is achieved with collective efforts.

We cry for better wage when inflation keeps rising to make the wage useless. Wage increase is a bad for an ailing economy like Nigeria's because it is import dependent even on food products and overdependent on oil.

When wages rise, inflation rises.

The question?
What's the way out and how do we drive the growth and development of our economy up? Facilitate local production by making sure you have a contribution in agriculture as a sector.

Do we then fly?
Yes and no. It is not wise for us to now jump into producing phones, laptops and other sophisticated items when we can do something else that's worthwhile. What do you call a man that does not know his strengths and is worried about his weaknesses?

If we facilitate production on what we know best, we will reach the height of development we have dreamt of.

God has blessed us here in Nigeria with good soils and favourable climatic conditions. So, let us go to farm (innovatively) so we can feed our nation, feed Africa, feed our colonial masters and get paid, and then feed the world.
