Politics / Time To Demand Industrial Revolution Of Nigeria by channon: 10:13am On Jan 06, 2019
Many states governments in Nigeria will say only Lagos state can finance her budget without federal allocation

my question to them is that are they doing what Lagos is doing, many people move into Lagos every day and this migration to Lagos is not accidental nor is it because Lagos state has big land for farming, but because Lagos has so many opportunities for people to grow.
The major driver behind the influx of people to Lagos is majorly because of the industrial presence in Lagos and many other service providing institutions.

Having said all these what every other states in Nigeria should do to be like Lagos is to give encouragement to industries to thrive in their state and not just focus on what lazy governments do which is emphasizing on Agriculture alone, China did not grow by accident they grew by industrialisation and manufacturing sector as well as service sector.
Making so much noise about agriculture does not encourage people to stay in rural areas because industrialization preced migration, people move along with industrial presence.

Set up an industry in a bush give it few months you will see how rapid the Bush will grow into towns. there are so many examples

Obajana in kogi state was a village before Dangote cement was sited there, today it is a town.

I urge all other states in Nigeria apart from Lagos, Oyo, Ogun state, to shy away from their laziness of emphasizing on Agriculture alone as an alternative to providing employment and generating revenue to massive encouragement for industrial growth in there states.
No nation grows without industrialization it's not possible open ur eyes
Through enhanced education and adequate financing of research based knowledge in our institutions we can move Nigeria to any heights
