Someone with standard education doesn't need a job, he creates one. I will cite 2 examples
My boss, who graduated from yabatech in the 60s with just an ond in crude oil testing talks of how he refused offers from multinationals after he left school. He started a company which has over 1000workforce today.
I attended one of the state universities. While there I researched on converting MSW's from dumpsites in ph, to methane gas for domestic purposes. the estimate of methane from just 3 dumpsites would provide fuel for over 10000 houses annualy and thousands of job opportunities. The research was fully conceived by me and not by some professor, funded by me and done with very crude methods. I sent a proposal to ministry of energy but I havent had any response for years now.
Why would a mechanical engineer who has had thorough training on engine parts assembling and servicing walk the streets looking for job when he can establish a workshop? accountants that were taught well in school can merge and establish an accounting firm. Honor, dignity and class has to return to the educational system so that students can start thinking like their counterparts in better societies, as job creators and not job seekers.
This is top priority!

Pls see specific action that the FG should put in place in this recession,

1. Fix Energy/Electricity problem - If FG can guarantee stable electricity supply of 20hrs in a day, it will reduce the cost of doing business by over 20% across board. Nigerian factories that moved to other African countries will return back to base, small scale industries will naturally spring up across the country and provide jobs.

2. Fix the Steel Industry - We need the FG to revive the moribund Steel Industry, steel development is believed to be the fundamental bedrock of economic growth. The iron and steel industry, as far as the development of all facets of life is concerned, is sine quo non. All other industries stem from the steel. The oil industry, the car manufacturing industry, the construction industry owe their existence and survival to the steel industry.

3. Build Road Networks & Improved Transportation System - FG need to invest massively into building road networks to solve the problem of demand and supply. We all know the poor status of our Railways, FG need to revive the railway networks to increase traffic volumes and secure a position as a key mover of goods and people.

4. Improved Agriculture Sector - We need the FG to encourage youths to move back farms by adopting improved farm mechanization, which is still a function of the Steel Industry and our Agric Research Institutes. We need to see programs that is geared towards taking excess farm produces from small scale farmers and encourage them to move to commercial level by creating less cumbersome process to export their farm produce. We need to see concrete partnership with private companies that will invest in preservation of excess farm produces at commercial level to sustain the interest and zeal of farmers to remain in production of crops and to stabilize price.

Nigerian are hardworking people, Let FG provide a conducive environment to do business, thats all we need and you will see the positive results. Investing in commercial/retail real estate is simply a misplaced priority and cant bring the country out of this economic recession.

The Federal Government on Friday signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with China Railway Construction Corporation (CRCC) on the completion of Warri-Ajaokuta-Itakpe-Baro-Abuja railway line.

The Minister of Transportation, Rotimi Amaechi, signed the agreement on behalf of the Federal Government while Chen Xiao Xing, Vice President of CRCC, signed for the company in Abuja.

Amaechi said that the central railway line was the backbone of rail transportation in Nigeria, adding that the agreement was for its completion and extension to Warri town, port and refinery.

He said the rail would extend northward from Eganyi-Jakura-Baro to Abuja.

The minister said the agreement included the construction and expansion of Warri Port, Deep Sea Port as well as the Industrial Park at Bonny Island.

“The central line is one of the most important rail lines that we have in Nigeria and I will be glad if we can partner with your corporation; we will commence negotiation once we get the approval from the president. It is part of the economic corridor in Nigeria where we have solid minerals, we have been working on that line for a long time and we will like to complete it,” Amaechi said.

Earlier, Xing said that it was a privilege to sign the agreement on the rail project.

He said that for Nigeria’s economy to grow, it must reduce importation and focus on industrialization which would lead to economic and social development.

“It is a privilege to be here again with the Minister of Transportation to sign MoU of this Ajaokuta – Abuja rail line, extending from Aladja to Warri Port, which was built 30 years ago but was not operational.

For Nigeria’s economy to take-off, it must reduce importation because industrialisation is very important for economic and social development.

If this project is completed in three years, other industries will develop,” said the CRCC boss.

He described Nigeria and China as strategic partners.

That woman was in Qatar...anyone who uses Qatar Airlines will know better, that's their Airport in DOHA. Meanwhile USIP also have an office In Qatar, voice of America can set up anywhere to grant interviews

By Kingsley Ighomwenghian (Lagos), David Agba (Abuja) and Igoniko Oduma (Yenagoa)
Despite what some have termed the looming doom hovering over the nation's horizon as a result of the crash in oil price, Co-ordinating Minister for the Economy and Minister of Finance, Dr. Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, on Thursday assured of Nigeria's readiness to weather the storm, should the price slide further at the international market.

Brent crude oil futures fell below $74 per barrel on Thursday after the group decided not to cut production, despite global oversupply.

Meanwhile, according to Reuters.com, Brent crude dropped to $73.80 a barrel, its lowest since August 2010, before paring losses to last trade down $3.71 on the day at $74.01.

Revamp and standardize the educational system so that kids from poor homes can have quality education and be relevant anywhere in the world. Just like south africans.


Tell me you didnt know this. Hypocrisy!

eyeview:
You know APC is a clueless regime when a minister of health will visit a state and he ends up inspecting and commending projects in another portfolio(education).

As a health minister,did the governor show him any success or work in his health sector?

Bunch of confused square pegs in round holes.

Mcowubaba:

He hasn't even handled Power supply properly for 1 Year, you're already giving him 2 terms in office as a President... Eclipse will just overtake Nigeria

BlackOnassis:
If you read the comments without watching the video, one would think Mr. Fashola was not able to satisfactorily answer the questions. But the man actually did well. Ipobs/Wailers will die miserably for rooting for the failure of their own country.

segunpee:
U don't mind these folks. Honestly any gullible person would have been deceived by their jaundice view of the interview. He actually did well and gave solid answers and explanations to the questions asked. At a time Sankour wanted to deny him d chance to respond but Fashola insisted n made his statements. Any remotely intelligent and unbiased person knows Fashola did well. Please leave children of hate alone. They can't see beyond their nose. Hateful folks always see F9 where there should be A1, B2 etc. It in them until delivered. Proud of Fashola responses

Jengem:
At last request from oga fassshole, he told me the money is being kept in a secret tunnel in aso rock under your secret crush certificate

wadetaw202:
Fashola was interviewed on BBC HardTalk and it was surprising to see people here castigating him and calling him empty. I found myself liking their nonsense comments, thinking they were saying the truth about fashola being empty. My opinion however changed when I personally watched the video.

In the video, I saw a man who knew what he was saying, a man whom was comported and never stammered or stuttered for once, a man displaying intelligence and brilliance as they come.

I looked for any sign of emptiness in what fashola was saying and i couldn't find any. I started wondering if those making those senseless and unreasonable comments actually watched the video.

While it is good to be in the opposition, it is also good for us to use our brains properly and choose our fights, arguments and counter-opinions carefully, so that we wouldn't sound like foooools.

Granted that fahsola made some statements I do not like, there is still no sign of losing his cool all through the interview.

These wailers supporting one politician/political party against another, what will you do if you find the two political enemies together in the same political party tomorrow?

This is the link to the video. Nigerians should kindly watch it and show me anywhere fashola was caught off-guard or couldn't defend himself or looked empty.

You have to factor in time value of money #70 million when fashola stole it was still #70million ($437,500).

At the change administration conservative exchange rate of N1:$350
That is N153.13 million. Do you see why we are blessed to have those lackeys ruling us.

Fashola stole money in Lagos like it was going out of fashion. Amaechi, Uduaghan and Alams of blessed memory also milked Nigeria dry.

Look what the governors and military administrators in the North have caused over time. Lets thank God they havent killed us yet but they are taking us to the precipe.

Nigerians have to watch and pray. All of us. And watching means we have to pick up our weight and hold these dead weight losers to account because the world is puzzled that we are all so docile to allow it persis, thus Sackers handling of the super chumpinister on british national television.
