Fashola's Attempt To "School" Peter Obi Gone Wrong by logicalhumour: 10:00pm On Jul 02, 2022 |
I just watched a short video where Fashola attempted to "school" Peter Obi on Infrastructure vs Production. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k9HUruemlAI (https://www.nairaland.com/7208125/fashola-schools-peter-obi-infrastructure) I might know nothing to challenge someone like Fashola, but him making a statement such as "building infrastructures is the way to legitimately distribute wealth in an economy."...like seriously? Do Nigerians throw away common sense when it comes to politics? Like, for example, how many people did the second Niger bridge employ, and where are they today? As opposed to refining diesel, or a steel plant producing steel and constantly employing common Nigerians for decades and decades? He talked about how infrastructure automatically increases the demand for the materials used in building them. He forgot to mention how short-lived this demand is. Worse of all, we all know that we import the steel and our diesel! I think watching this video of Fashola today has made me a die hard OBIdient tbfh. Obi is like a million steps ahead of these guys in thinking productively. I mean, how about you work on producing your steel and diesel before thinking about Infrastructure? He spoke about millions of litres of diesel, tons and tons of steel used for that Niger bridge, etc. Any smart person who sees the bigger picture will easily see how 'building infrastructure' in our current setting easily translates to consumption (since we'll be importing the lot of skills and materials!) At this point, isn't it obvious that production can easily translate to building infrastructure if prioritised in a country like Nigeria? Prioritising production is like killing a thousand birds with one stone. My f#*g opinion though. 116 Likes 5 Shares |

But in truth, I had been rating Fashola very high before this past few weeks. I even forgave his goof about "power not being rocket science " but what he is saying now makes me think he doesn't really know much. 117 Likes 6 Shares |

These people are so funny. What Fashola said is the absolute truth. One of the ways to boost employment and the economy is for the government to invest in infrastructure. Obi will rather invest in a brewery though. 33 Likes 6 Shares |

ElSudani: The best way to improve the economy is to create enabling environment for the masses to take over productive ventures and make profit, then pay tax. Enabling environment like easy loans, stable interest rates, strong security, etc 64 Likes 4 Shares |
