grandstar: I don't think it's as simple as the article would like us to believe. We simply are not competitive enough to operate without some form of protection. You really think the average Nigerian manufacturer paying through his nose for diesel to power his gen, and as well as 911 trucks to transport his goods (no thanks to poor road network) can compete against far more efficient systems elsewhere? Take rice for instance. With the banning of importation, I'm not sure anyone would doubt there's been a remarkable improvement in local production (though the actual increase is in contention). At least I was in Ebonyi and can testify to upsurge in abakaliki rice. Unless and until we deal with infrastructure problem that is seriously hampering business environment here, any attempt to open our borders to unrestricted imports would lead to immediate collapse our local manufacturers. That's for sure 1 Like |

Nigeria has 7 primary problems 1. High population 2. Extremely unproductive % of the population 3. Lack of visionary leaders 4. Lack of basic infrastructure such as adequate electricity 5. Corruption in high and low places 6. Foolish, unassertive, complacent, and sometimes, conniving citizens. 7. Parochial sentiments/interests (tribalism and religion) Of these, number 6 is so worrisome to me because it is the basis for lack of accountability and vision by the leaders. It is the reason failed presidents and governors are returned to power. Number 1 would have not been a problem if number 2 was not an issue. Doomed country. 4 Likes |

@spectroscopic In Sudan had had civil war for many years between the northern Muslims and the southern Christians. The citizens in both regions never questioned their leaders poor management since all focus was on defeating their neighbours. Now that Sudan has been divided, the northern Muslims just revolted against their leaders and the southern leaders are still fighting themselves over tribal differences so may be the south needs to still be further divided. Northern Sudan has taken its first step towards development but may not see the fruits of this labour in the next 20 years. Better late than never. 5 Likes |

cooltola: We have the brains and human capacity to be a major and global power and economy, poor electricity is our number one obstacle, but we cannot get stable electricity because electricity is privatized and the people they sold the power assets to can not produce electricity because they don't have the knowledge, they don't have the money to build power plants. We need at least 50,000MW, but our transmission system cannot handle ordinary 4000MW. The problem is extremely complicated, they must get rid of privatization or restructure everything and rebuild the transmission system from top to bottom. 2 Likes 1 Share |

Do all diverse countries need to separate in order to develop? Not necessarily When a man is illiterate, he is a problem not only to himself but to his nation. This simple statement is key to the economic development of all countries. Today in Nigeria, the biggest expense Nigerians face is in educating and providing healthcare to their children. The government on the other hand subsidizes everything from electricity cost, petrol cost, pilgrimage cost to the cost of the US dollar. If the government would simply face its duty of providing education and healthcare for all its citizens (not just poor citizens), and hands off all this other industries like petroleum, energy, agriculture, transportation, housing etc, leaving the private sector to handle them, Nigeria will develop. The Government does not even have to run the schools and hospitals. All the government must do is guarantee funding and provide standards and infrastructure for the schools and hospitals. Amazingly, the government will then be able to tax its citizens when they become productive adults to fund future generations. Also the government would be more serious about implementing population controls since it directly bares the burdens. The government does not need to build rail networks and airports and the rest. These things do not bring about development without a majority of your people having quality education. Moreover, an educated private sector would better fund these sectors. Whether Nigeria divides or not, at the end of the day, the government(s) that decides to focus its budget on educating its people as opposed to all these other nonsense would become developed. |

Why didn't they also tell you what oil prices (which your economy is practically based on) was from 2011 to 2015 & that it plunged to just $29/barrel within Buhari first 6 months? |
