Im glad to see the Nigerian government taking the initiative to create a new Ministry of Blue Economy. Tinubus leadership is an inspiring example of how leaders can drive forward progress in their communities.

^^^


What are the deliverables?

Igboslayer:
Those that adopted it knows what they intended to achieve. I know revenue from this new ministry will bring about the necessary development for the country. This is not a paper weight ministry. This is part of the needed reform the country economy needs to be able to thrive.

^^^
No.

Blind faith in government - the kind of faith you have shown up here - never ends well. Only healthy skepticism by voters eventually leads to real development.

There's already a ministry of water resources. There's already a ministry of tourism. There's already a ministry of agriculture. What is the blue economy ministry going to do that isn't already in the 'charter' of these 3 ministries?

I am in love with this blue print. Jagaban will lead us to the promise land

Four legs good...

Tareq1105:
Tinubu APC presidency would ensure efficiency and more revenue would be generated for developmental program.

^^^
Good.

You have made an assertion about revenue - and revenue can be measured. At the end of this administration, you should be able to tell us how much revenue was generated - compared to prior administrations (and by how much this administration has outperformed prior ones, revenue wise). No ifs, no buts. If your principal cannot deliver on this, then...

Tareq1105:
The separation of Gas from Petroleum is strategic. Just as separation of Solid Minerals from Steel Devt.

^^^
Good. I edited out the insults and all that from your initial post so that we could focus on policy - because that's what really matters. This strategic division of ministries is designed to achieve what goals exactly? And how will success in achieving the goals (which you must specify in your response) be measured?

Tareq1105:
Every successive minister had neglected Steel Devt just like Gas but concentrated on Solid Minerals and also Petroleum.

^^^
See earlier post about specific deliverables. What are the deliverables?...So that in 4 years (or 4 months or 8 years or whenever) we don't start hearing stories? What are the deliverables?!

Tareq1105:
That's why men are not God. He's the author and the finisher of our lives (faith), He knows our end from the beginning. Tinubu, just like you and I, is God's project. Please don't think evil for anyone bcoz you're not his maker.

^^^


Leave God out of this.

Nobody is 'thinking evil' (whatever that means). If hard questions need to be asked, they will be asked. If concerns need to be expressed, they will be expressed.

Your principal is being held accountable - and that's exactly how it should be.

If Morocco a North Africans country could made serious effort to join ECOWAS to enable their fishing vessels have access to fish here in west Africa, why can’t Nigeria get fishing vessels and train fishermen to hunt on large scale?

Omo you beat me to this.
If only Nigerians knows the wealth that's in that deep blue.
I'm sure foreign fishing trawlers will be on our waters doing heavy stealing.
Meanwhile all we do is cry that fish is expensive because of dollars.

Forget this country my brother, nah maggots full our leaders brains , fishing vessels are designed with underground coldroom to store fish , prawn , they pack them instantly and freeze in the fishing vessel coldroom , everything is on YouTube, we are not blessed with leaders in Nigeria, Blackman brain is black, I already gave up

Why do we have college of fishery ?
Our educational institutions are useless, professors using their university of Ibadan 1988 handouts 📝 , I’ve learnt more on YouTube than I learnt in university, Nigeria university should be scrapped

gregng:
Let called BAT and ask him what is Blue Economy? I bet u he doesnt know the meaning of Blue economy...

The ocean is called DEEP BLUE.
The resources from the ocean is the economy.
So the business that's related to the Deep blue, is what is called the blue economy.
Google Norway and stock fish, a lot of expensive oils used in pharmaceuticals.
Expensive sea foods like giant lobsters, clams, caviers, oysters and so on.
Money dey inside that place, it's so unfortunate that Nigerians are stucked in canoe and paddle fishing.
Go to Ijora in Lagos and see fishing business.
Most of those fish consignments are probably stolen from Nigerian high sea.

I believed our problem as a people is our mind set
We don't want things to change, people feel threatened by new ideas.
What the people need is exposure, and creativity.
if the government is useless, are the people supposed to be daft too?.
You've been updating and upgrading yourself on the YouTube, Nigerians use YouTube to entertain themselves.
Unfortunately knowledge is power, a guy somewhere in Ekiti used stones to generate electricity, who else have tried to look into it?.
That stone is called vibranium, it was first discovered in congo, just imagine other people in that Ekiti axis decided to look into what this young man did, and more of such stones are discovered, who knows the kinds of fortune that could be created from the stone.
Nobody wants to spend time on research and development, a lot of people see it as NONSENSE.
This is why we are in this sorry state, this is not peculiar to Nigeria, this is the scourge of the whole of Africa.

There were many Nigerian and foreign investors in the lucrative business with fishing vessels and trawlers for local and export processing but from the 1990s many lost their investments and had to quit the Nigerian high seas for other areas because of sea pirates and kidnappings for ransom!

Security is key.

Brilliant! Brilliant!! Your submission is brilliant! Infact Ekiti youth would have been able to create employment for themselves if they do as you suggested , we’ll said the people mustn’t be daft too, truly it’s the mindset, I agreed
And on the aspect of the research, our university ought to invite that guy and go on research and exploration but they rather do nothing, so it’s the mindset like you rightly said

This is where the Navy should come in, no pirate should be powerful than the government, there is no where this isn’t happening but with counter solution approach, the problem will vamoose

Vibranium! Thanks for that info.

I also watched early this year, 2
YouTube videos of the boy [Tolani "danger"]who is based in an Ekiti West town. He powered his house from 2 wet stones buried in the ground. It was truly awesome to see. Sadly the boy stopped schooling in SS2 according to him in order to concentrate on his electricity generation.

Nicely put.

This is the way to go... An efficient
Navy and Air Force with the aid of drones and satellite tracking are key.

TRAAAAAAAASSSSSHHHHH

Blind fate in a government that's barely 3 months in the saddle, what manner of people are you that chooses skepticism above dogmatism for their leaders to perform especially for someone that have started well.

Because he's not your unfortunate Obi that couldn't win a general election the government must fail no matter how good the plan is. You will eventually see the country prosper again, I hope hate and anger will not deny you and your people the benefits it holds.

You have practically stated your problem here which is IGNORANCE 😜😜😜 A small google will clear your doubt about blue economy, maritime potential and why it must stand alone.

All over the world this ministry has a clear mandate different from Ministry of agriculture, Water and Tourism. This is a serious ministry harnessing deep water resources in partnership with maritime authorities, shipping and fishing companies in deep waters.

Stop elaborating your ignorance because of hate.😜😜😜👌👌👌👌👌

Tareq1105:


You obifools said Tinubu was not ready and not competent. I hope you fools are seeing the difference now.

Your lord and savior Obi doesn't even know what Blue Economy is all about. Atiku ke? Wetin dat one know? Blue Economy shocked them. I heard that Atiku asked someone which one is Blue Economy? I don't know any contestant that's more prepared than Tinubu.

Tinubu APC presidency would ensure efficiency and more revenue would be generated for developmental program.

The separation of Gas from Petroleum is strategic. Just as separation of Solid Minerals from Steel Devt.

Every successive minister had neglected Steel Devt just like Gas but concentrated on Solid Minerals and also Petroleum.

And they would say Tinubu is sick, he would be running Nigeria from hospital bed, he's not healthy, he would soon die and Shettima would be president, he's not competent, he doesn't have capacity, etc Tinubu no gree die o. He no dey hospital bed o.

That's why men are not God. He's the author and the finisher of our lives (faith), He knows our end from the beginning. Tinubu, just like you and I, is God's project. Please don't think evil for anyone bcoz you're not his maker.

And you are buying gas 120 per ltr..

If Tinibu is a thief and cert faker may u and your family never know good thing in life.... Pls say Amen if he also ddnt win the election free and fair

over 90 percent of our revenue to service our debts. It has just been reported that the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) owes JP Morgan and Goldman Sachs $7.5 billion in what it classified as “securities lending.

Nigeria is gone each government of past have mortgage the future reason it gets more worse daily

I edited the nonsense about Obi and all of that. Now, lets get down to business.

South Africa has a Ministry of Environment, Forestry & Fisheries. There is no cabinet level blue ocean ministry.

Egypt has a Ministry of Water Resources & Irrigation. It has no cabinet level blue ocean ministry.

Japan has a Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry & Fisheries. It also has a Ministry of the Environment. It does not have a cabinet level blue ocean ministry.

The UK has a Department for Environment, Food & Rural Affairs. It also has a Department for Business & Trade. There is no cabinet level blue ocean department.

The United States has a Department of Agriculture. It also has the EPA, Office of Water and the FSA. There is no cabinet level blue ocean department.

And so on.

The issue is a simple one: you have not been able to educate us on why we need a cabinet level blue ocean ministry. You haven't delivered on this simple task. Instead, you've given us lectures on how the blue ocean ministry is a 'serious' ministry - which of course means you admit your government has 'unserious' ministries.

You need more training. Propaganda is a 'serious' business.

BreconHills:

Ok.....



Since you dimwits got everyone's life story on your head to know who's doing better and who's not...

I hope you'd survive from all of it?

Igboslayer:
Obviously you are confused 🤔🤔🤔 just because they didn't name it blue economy ministry doesn't mean they don't have a dedicated department for it.

^^^


Nonsense.

My argument is a simple one: justify the cabinet level status of your country's marine & blue economy ministry. You simply haven't made a strong case for it - it'll probably end up like all the other underperforming bureaucracies we've been plagued with for over half a century. Anything you have to say outside this central point is irrelevant and a waste of time.

Igboslayer:
In Nigeria case we have had a paper framework on this since 2020 without any development under NIMASA, Which bigger than NIMASA itself.

^^^
So?

And your point is?

Igboslayer:
Bangladesh: Ministry of Fisheries and Livestock - Includes the blue economy as a part of its responsibilities.

Namibia: Ministry of Fisheries and Marine Resources - Dealing with fisheries and marine resources, which are part of the blue economy.

^^^


When I asked you to demand a pay cut from your masters you took it as an insult. If you had any integrity you would do it without further delay. Without even realizing it, you've settled this argument - in my favour of course. In the list of countries I gave to you earlier, not one has a cabinet level blue ocean ministry. Not a single one. Nigeria simply does not need another bureaucracy to create 'jobs' for party apparatchiks - because that's exactly what this blue ocean ministry will become in no time . That's the point I'm making - no more, no less. If you cannot understand this, I cannot help you any further.

Igboslayer:
You are only pretending to be educated...if naming and roles of departments and ministry is your problem, conduct google and stop promoting your ingnorance.

Forget about the universities, a certain Mark Zuckerberg was a student when he created Facebook, what was his school's contribution?.
Okay what about John Oseni, he was even an SS3 student.
That Ekiti guy was a junior secondary school dropout.
I said it and stood by it. that we don't have engineers in this country, all they do is brandish certificates.
Way back ordinary blacksmiths and carpenters are building " bole kaja " with Bedford vehicles in Ibadan.
At the moment our engineers can't even combine planks and Okada engines, to build Keke maruwa.
Keke is now #1.8m, so what exactly are our people learning in the universities and polytechnics?
