stop lying........stop lying.....stop lying ..only a few Nigerian doctors who have reached the peak in those countries earn that much. most nigerian doctors abroad earn far less than what you have stated |
Nigeria is poor because the sum total of her individual constituents ,people, families, local governments and states are poor, and not very productive. The poverty reduction model should target capacity building at the individual level ,local industries and at all local governments based on the principles of comparative advantage, meritocracy, pragmatism and honesty. Once local industries become effective, automatically foreign investors are likely to come Racoon: |
Winters23:Money can be lost in business. I don't think it's a bad idea to diversify into property early depending on ones circumstances. It might serve as a backup incase the business runs into problems |
so many innocent people would have been wrongfully accused due to ignorance |
We need to focus more on electing good candidates at the local government and especially state level. They are our major headache compared to the presidency.Whoever becomes president will not come and settle in a state or local government to fix its problems. The president cannot know the local problems ,directly create revenue, build local government or state infrastructures, roads , dispensaries, schools ,pay salaries , pensions and gratuities. The state governments need to allow local governments to work. Let us focus more at electing visionary local ,state then federal representatives in that order. |
The greatest resource is the human resource and not crude oil or whatever minerals. We keep neglecting development of human beings . Crude oil without development of the people is nothing, whereas a developed people do not need to have crude oil Islie: |

That's the way to go. Any herder , Fulani or otherwise stands to gain immensely from ranching. Also it will reduce the damage and suffering done to their children and families, increase their education, living standards etc. The cows will still be sold so they will still make profit. The owners of the cattle that the Fulani herd are a big power group. They need to encourage ranching. It is possible that it is some of these owners that do not want to invest and pay the herder his proper dues. |
chatinent:Copy and follow the blue print of the Asian Tigers. Invest heavily and restructure the Educational system to make it more practical and productive. Employ only the best in critical areas and give them the relative freedom to work together and harmonise their activities. Produce demand and buy locally made goods . Eg give interest free loans for housing , garment makers etc ensuring that individuals who obtain these loans purchase only made in Nigeria goods . Revamp the Judiciary and employ/ retrain /encourage security personnel to ensure Justice Ensure at least 95% National health insurance coverage , ensuring that local pharmacies ,/industries produce for local demands within 5 years Leadership by example . The citizens must see that leadership is pro development. No foreign trips abroad for health care. Privatise (avoiding monopoly) as much as possible. Give more power to local Governments , ensuring a well structured program of information dissemination from Federal to state and local Governments. Reach the working class through their trade unions to know how to develop them . Plant 100 million preferably economic trees within 5 years and stop tree felling for firewood Restructure and harmonise the procurement system tying making it cheaper!, efficient , and promoting local industries... Eg all Federal, state and local Government vehicles be produced locally by innoson and others who will give government a discount...and backwardly integration |
under a democracy , if the people are not satisfied with their leadership , they may call or persuade their elected leader's to impeach the head of Government if they think he is not fit to rule or is threatening their existence , or impoverising them , or if he asks them to sacrifice without them seeing what or how he himself is sacrificing |
