Why Does Peter Obi Hate Infrastructural Development? by Napata77: 12:29am On Nov 15, 2022 |
Why does this man hate infrastructural development? I've heard his own colleagues and ex governors saying the man ''hates infrastructure''. Now of course, I know he talks about stressing 'human development' over infrastructure. But bro, that sounds good on paper, but if you build the best hospital and school in some place, but there's no motorable road to reach there, who did you build it for? Ghosts? HOW DO YOU REDUCE THE COST OF DOING BUSINESS, which is what leads to prosperity, when you frown on multi-billion dollar railway projects that are guaranteed to ease transport of goods and services and reduce cost of doing business? Frown on airport projects that will draw in investors? Flyovers that are being built everywhere do not constitute ''consumption'', as you would put it. They are there to help reduce travel time, which increases business productivity. So you cannot separate infrastructural development from human development. The two go hand in hand. It is not 'either/or'. I keep hearing that the man favours ''saving money'' over spending it. I don't agree with 'saving money' when people are hungry on the street and need development. If you don't know what to do with the money, take a seat somewhere please, let those who have ideas run for office. Thank you. 3 Likes 1 Share |

He is a man that has understanding. Building infrastructure without building the people's capacity is a waste of time. For instance, building hospitals without skilled doctors is a waste. In fact, build the people and they'll build the nation. That's the difference between Africa and far east, near east and Southeast Asia. Japan, the United States and Europe became what they are today by building the capacity of their citizens. African countries that lack good leaders are fixated on building fake infrastructure that empower outsiders more than Africans. Have you asked yourself why a country that produces oil has no functional refinery? Have you asked yourself why billions of dollars have been spent on Ajaokuta but it's still not functional? Have you asked yourself why the best African leaders are those that focused on building the people, yet they are the ones that the West oppose most? A man like Thomas Sankara? What develops a nation is people not fake borrowed knowledge. You see those railways Jonathan built? Give it 20 years and it'll decay like the refineries because it would always require outsiders to manage. The day the money to pay the manufacturer exhausts, it'll crumble. That's why if you move all the humans in Nigeria to America and move the Americans here, this place would become like America while America becomes another unsafe, bandit infested country with backward people. So Obi is right. He is a man that builds infrastructure without neglecting the more important human capital development without which infrastructure is nonsense. 3 Likes 1 Share |

ScamHunter: Nigeria does not lack skilled doctors. Your analogy is baseless. In fact, build the people and they'll build the nation. That's the difference between Africa and far east, near east and Southeast Asia. Japan, the United States and Europe became what they are today by building the capacity of their citizens. African countries that lack good leaders are fixated on building fake infrastructure that empower outsiders more than Africans. The United States became the world's largest economy by investing heavily in its railroads, which drastically cut the cost of doing business in the country, starting from the 1870s. Europe and Asia simultaneously built infrastructure while investing in human development. They didn't just build schools and hospitals without building roads, rail, airports and bridges. Have you asked yourself why a country that produces oil has no functional refinery? The Dangote refinery, which has the capacity to refine all Nigeria's oil for domestic consumption is virtually onstream, so your point is redundant. Have you asked yourself why billions of dollars have been spent on Ajaokuta but it's still not functional? So, because Ajaokuta is not functioning, we should not build infrastructure? Another baseless point. Have you asked yourself why the best African leaders are those that focused on building the people, yet they are the ones that the West oppose most? A man like Thomas Sankara? What develops a nation is people not fake borrowed knowledge. You see those railways Jonathan built? Give it 20 years and it'll decay like the refineries because it would always require outsiders to manage. AS WE SPEAK, Nigeria is building a massive railway manufacturing plant in Kajola, Ogun state, that will employ 5,000 Nigerians on completion, and that will build and maintain trains right here in Nigeria, by Nigerians. You need to keep up with the news. That's why if you move all the humans in Nigeria to America and move the Americans here, this place would become like America while America becomes another unsafe, bandit infested country with backward people. Err, no this place cannot become like America even if Americans moved here because they would have to invade 195 countries, kill millions of people local and foreign, and enslave millions more for several centuries, exploiting their free labour, for NIGERIA TO BE LIKE AMERICA, BECAUSE THAT WAS WHAT AMERICA DID TO BE WHAT IT IS TODAY.

Oh, so we ''develop the capacity'' of people, and then HOPE that the private sector builds infrastructure, after we have ''developed the capacity'' of the people, whatever the fck that means.

I am not sure you understand what I implied. UK and SA invading our doctors means that we at least had an advantage in terms of human development which PO is advocating for, but what happened to the developed humans when the chance came? They are running away to countries with infrastructure. Even you will run away to Canada, UK, US and other developed countries to go and enjoy their infrastructures. Like the OP said, the 2 must go together, you cannot claim to do human development and say you will not do infrastructure. Even the facility to do the human development has to be done inside an infrastructure. The 2 must go together, if one has to be higher then it has to be infrastructure because you can easily employ specialist from other areas like Saudi and UK have shown but you cannot lift up a infrastructure from one country by fiat to develop your own.
