That's why the govt has directed NICO to conduct a Made-in-Nigeria Campaign and also come up with a comprehensive proposal for its effective implementation to secure state government buy-in.
And i think it can be workable if every state government can start it's implementation in their various states, beginning with the corporate bodies and bodies corporate. It's just a matter of time then it becomes a custom and culture.

universities of Agriculture across the
country.

covered the major road from north bank
where the university is located causing
serious traffic gridlock on the road, the
vice chancellor of the university, Prof.
Emmanuel Kucha appealed to the
students to be calm as they were
already making plans to meet with the
federal government over the matter.
Prof Kucha who expressed dismay over
the decision of the federal government
noted that if the college of management
sciences was scrapped so many
lecturers would be affected as well as
students.
He said he was in total support of the
students in saying no to the decision by
the minister for education as there can’t
be university of agriculture without
college of management sciences adding
that no one can be successful in
agriculture without good management
background.
Also addressing the students, the dean
of college of management Sciences,
Prof Fidelis Ayatse, called on the
students to be calm as plans were
underway to tackle the issue.

Union government appealed to the
federal government to reconsider its
decision, saying that the college of
management sciences is beneficial to
the university in many ways.
A 400 level student of Accounting, Mr

correspondent described the decision by
the Hon minister as worrisome and sad
adding that it was the same federal
government through the National
Universities Commission that gave
approval for the university to have a
college of management sciences, so
why turning round to frustrate the
students and lecturers of the college.
