Oluwabash: Abiodun Makes Case For Diversification Of Nigeria's Economy To Non Oil Sector, Agriculture, Technology, Others
Ogun State Governor, Prince Dapo Abiodun has said that Nigeria's economy would be sustainable if attention is shifted from oil to the non oil sector.
He said the nation could achieve this by diversifying into mineral resources, agriculture, manufacturing, tourism, and technology.
Speaking at the 6th Senator Abiola Ajimobi Roundtable and 74th Posthumous Birthday, organized by the Senator Abiola Ajimobi Foundation in collaboration with the Institute for Peace and Strategic Studies, University of Ibadan on Saturday, Governor Abiodun noted that the world is gradually moving away from fossil fuel, hence the need for the country to begin to look for other sources of revenue.
He said: "As I have mentioned earlier, the world is slowly moving away from fossil fuels as more countries embark on energy transition, therefore the need to actively diversified economy into non-oil sectors such as mineral resources, agriculture, manufacturing, tourism, and technology.
"Nigeria is blessed with an abundance of over 40 commercially viable mineral and natural resources that we as a people and government have not explored. While no official figures have been put forward, industry experts report that Nigeria’s solid mineral deposits are valued at over $1 trillion with some estimates as high as $5 trillion.
"Take, for example, my State, Ogun State, where we have over 15 natural mineral resources present in commercial quantities in all our local governments but only actively mine limestone, granite and laterite.
"In fact, we are the largest producer of solid mineral resources in Nigeria and account for just over 32.04 metric tons of mineral resources or 37.6% of national output.
"Imagine if, as a country, we are able to tap into all other solid minerals like gold, lithium, tantalite (a crucial mineral for electronics manufacturing), tin, barite, etc. The possibilities are endless, especially if we engage in value-chain addition in the country."
He said the theme of the roundtable, "Re-engineering Nigeria For Sustainable Development: Options, Costs and Prospects", was apt, as factors like youth engagement, collaboration with international organizations and neighbouring countries, embracing technological advancement and fostering innovation could accelerate economic diversification and growth.
Governor Abiodun lamented Nigeria's over- reliance on oil exports, which he said exposes her mono-economy as unsustainable in the face of volatility of oil prices due to supply and demand, market forces, vandalization and oil theft.
Prince Abiodun emphasized that re-engineering Nigeria for sustainable development is an intricate and multifaceted endeavour, expressing optimism that the nation's abundant resources and youthful population provide the needed solid foundation, but that addressing challenges such as infrastructure deficits, and economic diversification was imperative.
Senator Ajimobi, the governor stated, was as quintessential as he was kind, gifted and an exceptional communicator, who through hardwork, attained early success in the oil and gas industry and emerged a developmental political juggernaut worthy of emulation.
In his keynote address, the Minister for Power, Chief Adebayo Adelabu, attributed the nation's problems to leadership and fellowship issues.
He said that though Nigeria is blessed with abundance of resources and has contributed quality men and women to lead many international organizations, she is still far from development due to lack of quality leadership.
He lamented that many multi-nationals are pulling out of Nigeria because of high cost of doing business in the country, noting that it was high time Nigeria began to focus on education, youth development, technical training, while the health and power sector should be revitalized and leadership and fellowship issues should be dealt with.
Moderator of the event, Tajudeen Akanji, in his opening remarks, said that despite the nation's wealth, it does not show on the citizens as there is poverty in the land.
He said to re-engineer the country entails broad and general education for all, reasonable income for the people, functional middle class, functional administration, social services, and respect for the rule of law.
Just imagine this dumb thief, talking nonsense with confidence
Philipponzaghi: Days after the Central Crime Branch (CCB) Police made its biggest-ever drug haul in the city, more details have emerged on the kingpin who stored and distributed banned substances across the city. The police had arrested a Nigerian national from whose possession, 16 kg MDMA and 500 grams cocaine was seized.
The Bengaluru Police Commissioner B Dayananda on Tuesday said that the seizure was the biggest ever in the history. 16 kg MDMA worth Rs 16 crore and 500 grams cocaine worth Rs 5 crore was seized.
Accused Leonard Okwudili, a Nigerian citizen had come to Bengaluru on a business visa. He had claimed that he was in the country for the garment business. But, he was involved in procuring and distributing drugs across the city.
When the police raided his rented house in Ramamurthy Nagar, the police found a huge quantity of MDMA drugs in various forms like powder and crystals. The accused had stored the drugs in soap boxes, chocolate boxes, and in covers between new dresses.
How the accused procured drugs
The accused had developed a network of drug peddlers in several areas of the country. According to police sources, the accused used to procure drugs from Delhi. Through his associates, the drug was then transported from Delhi to Bengaluru via trains as the security checks were almost nil.
Once the drugs reached Bengaluru, Leonard used to store the drugs in soap boxes, chocolate packets and in between new dresses to avoid detection. The accused rented several houses in the city from where the drugs were distributed to several peddlers. He reportedly earned more than a lakh rupees per day which was sent back to Nigeria. The accused owned several posh bungalows back home.
The accused had procured more drugs this time as he had planned to distribute them in the New Year parties to be held in the city. The police have got his custody and are interrogating him to find the details of his associates.

Stamina777: Hello nairalanders, please I need your advice on this. I work in a bank as a cleaner and I go on errands for bankers in the bank. Am 24 year old and I only have my school start with me. I have an ambition to further my education though.
So their is this lady banker I like so much. I do go on errands for her. She is in her youthful age too but might be a little older than I do. I love her but I don't know how to tell her. I fear she might cast me if I tell her my intentions or I might lose my self respect.
Moreover, I always feel lonely because I rarely socialize. I go on errands because of the tips I make from it. Nobody gives me money for not doing anything. I feel less cared for but I care more about my loved ones even though I only give to them. I feel lonely all the time
Jakumo: I love 100% natural tits that are huge yet don't sag, but they must be set off by a nice toned midriff and a compact butt. Matter of fact if a woman is not blessed with the precise size and shape of tits that I prefer, I simply will never develop any attraction for her. These pictures that I snapped show what I regard as the perfect female rack.
