Am impressed, this is what you get from the knowledgeable person, clearly Buhari has the charisma and love of th people because of his anticorruption stand, but sadly he lacks the capacity to lead, this is a fact as evidenced by recent civil war among his kitchen cabinet members.

All the things elrufai said are true and if implemented we will get out of our doldrums but honestly Buhari cannot do it as I doubt if he even understands some of the things elrufai emphasised on . Imagine this letter was written to Buhari since September last year but 7 months after nothing has been done, this tells you Buhari lacks the intellectual capacity to take us to promise land.

Buharis anti corruption stance is very commendable but that is only one of many things needed to prosper

By the way I was a Buharist but am very disappointed. Kudos Nasir El-Rufai

petersje8:
see this extremist of a governor. u want to Nigeria to sell all the oil assets to China and India so that the oil industry workers will turn to palmoil workers. Also these Chinese and Indians will keep bringing their people
to take up jobs which Nigerians are able to do. God forbid. Go and check some indian companies like Sterling exploration and see what is going on there. indians all over the place. Better respect urself at elk rug so

Who is El Rufai deceiving.... We all know the BROMANCE between him and Buhari

He has some valid points except:

1. VAT moving to 10%. This has no advantage to the common man on the street. What FIRS should do is to ensure that more people do pay taxes as and when do. Compliance level is very poor in tax payment in Nigeria.

And so tell NPF Delta state to stop the unlawful arrest of young youth

2. Involving India and China: This is good but it is better if indigenization or what we call Nigerian Content is preached more. We should avoid neo-colonization. At this age, we need more Dangotes, More Adenugas, etc.

Good way to start...these are rather political than developmental if you ask me. I did not see his entire communique but I believe these would also help:

Start a deliberate education policy to raise budgetary allocation to the education sector to 30% and do this systematically-varying the increase on a yearly basis. Restructure the educational sector by reviewing our public learning systems, institute special schools for the talented to rival the private schools and ensure a deliberate employment is carried out. Federal scholarships but be social investments and not just grants to students to travel out of Nigeria and remain abroad. They must be compelled to come back to help develop the sector. Start a deliberate R and D policy for every sector in the country.

Rejuvenate the health sector. Saudis have a deliberate policy to ensure one doctor to 60 Saudis within a specified period and most of these doctors are sourced from Nigeria. Revamp the health sector by building mega medical villages in all States of the country...they will serve dual purposes of training and research as well as ensure medicare is available. Then ensure all public officials patronize them. Of course if they value their personal health care, they will ensure its sustainability.

Develop the power sector much more than what we have presently. Explore ways of sustainable energy generation by encouraging alternative energy sources. For areas where solar energy can be harnessed, divert national electricity to other areas and see the government of such areas develop their alternative energy sectors.

Incorporate the private sector in crude oil refinery, not necessarily by outright sales, but through public private partnership. And fast track the modular refinery licensing processes.

Explore trade agreements with other countries of the world. Our balance of trade can be improved if we look into trade agreements with other countries, our import/export window is too narrow...USA, China, Japan...which else? There are emerging economies in the world that can spur Nigeria's foreign business. The foreign minister should be made to earn his keep.

As an avid sports lover, this is just a gold mine waiting to be exploited. Iceland had a deliberate football development policy targeting under 15 boys in the 2000s that gave us the Sigmudsons, Gudjursen, Siggurdson, etc. We leave our football much to chance when we can earn foreign direct investments from footballers. Spot them, nurture them, sign them on commercial management terms with a football consultancy arm of NFF and export them as professionals. Earn your returns on your investments and they will definitely return to invest in Nigeria.

Finally, our internal security is nothing to write home about. It takes much more than energy to convince a foreigner to come into Nigeria. You need blood and sweat.


We shall get it.

After reading this letter, I can now see that all things attributed to El- Rufai are mere political propaganda spread by his opponents.

Tayeni:
...we have to understudy the efficiency and lean management methods of the Chinese(na apprenticeship be that).

the Chinese are not good managers, I have worked with them before, they are only good at providing a cheaper alternative to everything. The Indians are the good/efficient managers and slave drivers.
