I did the test and I am yet to get either regret or success mail.

Wanna know if it means anything?

I am not sure anyone has. However, I will not be surprised if they have moved ahead with the successful candidates cos Coronation has stopped sending regret mails for their trainee programs.

We move!

I laud Nigeria Citizens for enduring so much with the hardship in the Current economic woes.
It's never easy to keep on surviving in a nation where by there is an economic downturn of which I believe the positive change of the shortfall on the economy is not farfetched.

Recession by short Brief;
An economic recession is defined as a decline in gross domestic product (GDP) for two or more consecutive quarters...What do we mean by Gross domestic product? Its the market value of commodities produced within a country in a given period of time.

Also, the eradication of Recession is a gradual process that can not be done within a short period of time....With rigorous investigation and ideas from economic expertise. I hereby make a plea to the Government to consider my measure below.

A measure to remedy the Economic recession is taking note of the crucial role Agriculture plays in an economy. Agricultural sector as the back bone of an economy system. The F.G should ensure to employ farmers being their agents to work together with them and aids in patronizing their products which will be beneficial to the F.G and the farmers.

Our vagaries dated back in the 1970's under the Regime of Gowon, where there was diversification of economy from the Agricultural sector to Oil sector....This was because of the free money they derives from it without encountering hardship. These then result as a fragmented system.

Agricultural sector have an Important role to play in an Economy....How?

The decline in the foreign price of crude oil has made the Nigerian economy a mess. As Enterprises continue to downsize and reduce remuneration, the country itself is moving towards other revenue streams. It’s a no-brainer that agriculture is the next big thing in Nigeria, and with people losing their jobs and Offering them a redundancy fee for some while some finds it difficult to get.One lucrative area to invest in is
farming.The term farming, may sound local, and less-
profitable. This was a grave assumption made in the
past. Today, people know better.

They are many lucrative agricultural business we can engage in Today. Some are Poultry Farming, Tomato farming, Grain farming,Fish farming as so on. To mention, but few.

¶.Tomato farming;Did you know that over $300 million dollars worth of tomato pastes are imported into Nigeria every year?
Yes, $300 million dollars! The answer is simple, the
supply is far lower than the demand. This is one agricultural venture that goes unnoticed. A lot of people tend to look elsewhere never realizing
that this profitable enterprise has always been staring them in the face.
If you’re looking for lesser competition, grow
tomatoes. Once you can find a way to transport, grow
(in a large scale) and keep them looking fresh for a
long time, the sky would be your stepping stone.

¶.Poultry farming;The consumption of chickens and turkeys in Nigeria &
Africa as a whole is sky rocketing everyday.
Thousands of tons are consumed daily and the local supply cannot meet the demand. This has resulted to subsequent importation of thousands of poultry products into the country on a daily basis. This market deficit alone shows the potential of poultry farming in Nigeria. No wonder even an ex-president of Nigeria
reportedly owns one of the largest poultry’s in Africa.
With a small space in your backyard and little cash to
buy day-old chicks, you can start this agricultural
business idea.

¶.Grain farming;Nigerians and Africans as a whole consume millions of tons of rice, wheat, and oats every year. These are standard meals that every African family consumes in
a week. In Nigeria for instance, almost every home
eats rice daily. Most other homes consume wheat everyday, and others consume oats. These meals account for a very large volume of food consumed in the country.
What’s more interesting is the fact that Nigeria still imports thousands of tons of grains every day. Widespread local production can cut the importation by half and create thousands of millionaires from growing grains alone. This is one
Profitable agricultural business idea you can engage in. Its can go this way.....The Federal Government should set up a scheme that will really be an incentives for Nigeria farmers. How do they go about that?

We have the federal Government, State Government and the local Government....The Federal Government should set up a scheme for agriculture in the Local Government...there are sub unit under the (L.G) of which I urge the F.G to encourage our average farmers by supplying each local Government a standard machineries for exploitation while they aid the farmers in patronizing their products which will serve as a lingering effect. By so doing, Nigeria can therefore start exportation of Cash crops and food crops of which we serve as Another source of Income to the Government. The Government can give out loans and advances to the farmers for procurement of machineries.

In Nigeria Today, it is a pity that we so much relies on Oil sector....do we ever think that, if The Oil sector turndown how can we cope?

The mainstay of any developed nation is to be self reliance and encourage exportation rather than Importation....This is a nation whereby we shouldn't depend much on the Government, though the Government impact will really aid the Job done easily by supplying of soft loans to the Farmers for exploitation.

Chief Olusegun Obasanjo the former president of Nigeria said and I Quote "Nigeria’s currency (Naira) is suffering
because the country spends more than it earns,
depending more on importation, usually on goods than can be easily produced here in Nigeria" It a slap on our face that Nigeria spends so much money on the importation of toothpick.

Is not about how far But how well, there have been other countries that started prior to creation of Nigeria . A person developed Ghana, A person changed China, India and other known countries....let the #change begins with us. We can Together make a positive impact on Nigeria Economy.

Conclusively, our youth of nowadays....Let's together form a coalition for fostering peace and unity amidst us. Let's change our faculty of thinking, let's start doing something genuinely. Enterprising is the key to success. Be an employer of labours, being a Boss and save Nigeria rate of educated derelicts.

There is no way I can talk about the Current bane of our economic system without making reference to the Banking sector.

I will say this as a Banking student,the back bone of every economic system is the banking sector.....In a situation whereby the banking sector is crumbling, all other sectors will be inhibited.

My Impression towards this current misfortune in our Country was the sudden implementation of Treasury single account (TSA) Policy

The TSA policy by short flip;The treasury single account is an account kept by the Federal Government to monitor Government receipts and expenditures. In other to avoid misappropriation of public funds. Buh nevertheless, the Policy has caused dip of finance in the Banking sector today. I am much more concerned about the faith of the small business owners who will definitely be in dare need of little capital for proper running of their businesses.

Withdrawal of ministry's fund from commercial banks will definitely place a high price on the little available for public to borrow from, thereby removing these petty business owners from those who can access commercial banks for loan. This will definitely lead to death of many small scale Enterprises and skyrocket unemployment if there is no alternative of which I believe government had never been able to provide for. The local businesses are at risk, with this plan in operation.

In Nigeria Today, it is appalling that we Nigerians are compounding to our social economic issues. The Banking sector is an important part of financial system. I said earlier that the crumbling of the banking sector will affects all other sectors.
This therefore suggest that the performance of the Nigerian economy is greatly influence by bank lending. The study recommends that the federal government of Nigeria through the central bank of Nigeria (CBN) should strengthen the banking sector to ensure an improved credit flow to the activity sectors because of its strategic importance in creating and generating growth of the economy.

Nigeria as a whole have many problems that disrupt the Political system and economic sectors in our Country. I will like to state some of Nigeria's barriers.... Corruption, Unemployment, Bad Infrastructures,University systems and Crimes. To mention But few.....How can we Nigerians abate this Woe?

Firstly; I'll like to speak on the side of Corruption. Corruption is at the root of many of Nigeria’s problems in totality. Corruption takes many forms and infiltrates all political institutions and economic sectors. In 2014 Transparency international unveils that Nigeria is one of the most corrupts nations in the world. They rated Nigeria as the 38th most corrupt Country in the world. Res ipsa loquitor...The facts have spoken for its self with this afore stated Briefing on level on corruption. Corruption not only limits itself to Political institutions But occurs in many companies during Recruitment....A situation whereby a graduate soliciting for job meets up with the prerequisites of the organization and pass the necessary interviews set up against him/her But ended up not employed because of sentiment and not objectivity.....

Corruption at the national level....We have three arms of Government in Nigeria. The Executive, legislative and the judicial.... The works of each and everyone of them is to checkmate what goes wrong at the down level and what also goes wrong at the Top level for transformation in the Country. Let me speak on the side of Gasoline... It is true that Nigeria is blessed with crude oil (petroleum) but the question is on how correct is the volumes that are exported out of the country. For instance a head in one oil servicing company in the country may export about One thousand barrels of crude oil from the country and went back and gave a report to the government that he exported six hundred barrels. What happens to the remaining four hundred? The money goes into his personal account corruption in the highest order. Its is the duty of the Federal Government to scrutinize the kind of representative they choose....In my discipline, there is something we call "vicarious liability".I.e the liability of the agents is to be bound on the able principal.... Why? Is because He was the one who appointed the agent to have acted On his behalf. To avoid Corruption in this country and to make Nigeria better as other developed Countries....We need a political restructure. Nigeria is our country, let's together make Our nation great again....Long live Nigeria!!!
