My brother, unless you don't want to genuinely fix the country, there is no quick fix anywhere.

Even you and i were not quick fixed. You were carried in the wumb for 9 months . Why? Because there is no quick fix.

Only liars will promise a quick fix, but unfortunately, Olawepo Hashim is not a liar. I don't think you would love liars too.

Lets support people with realistic agenda for development.

Its not about lying, you don't get, the political and economic atmosphere calls for a solid short term goals. Even the party in power won't make such promises. What can you do in the next four years if elected, nobody is interested in 10years plan, your campaign should emphatically based on that fours years not even on 2nd tenure.
Be sincere to the people, on economic devolve powers to the federating states, let them generate and pay certain percentage to the FG. On power let the state generate, distribute and pay tax to FG. On security allow state policing. These things will have quantum effects on the economy and lives of my people.

I dont know how tou intend to achieve that. In a country that cant boast of obe good stretch of road. Education is outdated,

A national economic blue print is what he has designed to achieve this aim. Don't forget, this is a man who owns a company producing close to 500 megawat of electricity for this country. His striving businesses in telecoms and oil and gas are perfect example of practical approach. You don't have to listen to his words, just loot at his accomplishment.

I am not doubting his competence but the major challnege for anybody hoping to be president is how to change the mindset of the people. He is a citizen and he has every right to contest
I wish him the best . At this point its anyone but the dunce currently at the helm of affairs

Any serious political party must have a long term plan. The economy of a country cannot be done in isolation of its reality. he promised to move Nigeria's economy to a $4trillion economy in 10 years to be at per with middle income countries like malaysia, which we have slightly better economy than at independence. That's a target. But before 10years, the economy would have been set to approach that target, starting from his first year. So, the idea is to give Nigeria a larger picture of the plan.

In 5 years, obviously the economy will hit $2 trillion. But that doesn't take us to be at par with middle income countries. he has a target to get us to a relatively comfortable position to get us out of poverty and based on their plan, that can be achieved in 10years.

GE to support Bresson’s 500MW power project in Nigeria

Succour may be on the way for electricity consumers in the country, as the Global Energy giant, General Electric (GE), has thrown its weight behind Bresson’s plans to provide 500 Mega Watts (MW) of electricity to the national grid by 2017.

The Managing Director of Gas power Systems, Mohammed Mijindadi who disclosed this over the weekend during Bresson AS working visit to the Vice-President, Yemi Osinbajo, added that the project has become a priority.

Mijindadi said: “The project has tremendous economic value, and that is why GE Capital is involved in structuring finances for Bresson 500MW project”,

Bresson Nigeria Limited Chairman, Gbenga Olawepo-Hashim had earlier assured the Vice President that the energy to be generated would come from Bresson Flexible Power Initiative and its Magboro power plant in Ogun state.

He said the capacity, which would be available in phase one from second quarter of 2017, would represent 10 per cent of the current available national capacity.

The difference between running a business and running a country is very simple. Politics. That's the only difference.

Government is not obsessed with making profit, business is.

Fortunately for us, Olawepo Hashim is not only a business man, he his a democratic symbol of global standing.

Starting as a student union leader who led Anti Sap protest against military government in 1989, he has equipped himself with the required foundational leadership skills. He rose to become one of the founders of committee for defence of human rights in early 90's. Then was part of the g34 that fought for the return of democracy in 1999. He was part those few patriots who put governance ahead of politics.

So, this is a competent hand to lead Nigeria to success.

Being a union leader does not translate to being a good head of state or government.

Being a national student leader means having leadership and mobilization skills. Being a successful global business mogul with investment in seven countries and having traveled to 29 countries in the process means having required skills to transform the economy to a $4trillion economy and being a frontline democratic leader means having the required modern understanding to merge political, economic and security demand to achieve prosperous nation. This is what ANN's Olawepo Hashim is bringing to the table. Nigerians now have a choice
