Change begins with individual. Mmmm! Dasorai!!!
A riot act, isn’t it?
Now, it has to begin with you and I since our rulers have put the enabling environment in place. To begin with every unemployed youth is given a tidy sum to tide him over until he gets a fitting employment.
In any case, the job may not necessarily be a dreary eight-to-five office job. Estates have been established for artisans and agricultural workers.
We need to thank this government. They have been so graceful in their innovations. You just can not find any graduate roaming the streets again.
They have all been constructively engaged. And what’s more, they’ve been given well furnished accommodation.
It’s now I realise that if government wants to embark on a project,it could do it with style. Anybody who goes into those estates will not want to leave.
Everything, when I say everything, I mean everything is there. I’ve never been to heaven but I believe it’s Paradise on earth.
To cap it all, all the states in Nigeria now control their respective resources. So do all local governments. We no longer practise federalism in theory. It is practical federalism all the way.
The bokoharamites have surrendered. The Niger Deltans had no choice but to ‘behave’, since we no longer depend on their oil.
I forgot to tell you that we are no longer a mono-economy. The cocoa and cassava businesses in the southwest have been revived. The oilpalm business in the southeast has also been resurrected. To cap it all, the groundnut pyramids and leather tanning industries in the north are now up.and doing.
In fact, government has added a new dimension to all these. Relevant industries have been established to add value to all the abovementioned.
There is no case of kidnapping or adultnapping again. There are no suicide cases again. In fact, the policemen are so.relaxed that the major thing they do is to play scrabble.
By the way, did I tell you that all government workers, apart from enjoying health insurance and pensions when they retire now get their salaries as at when due?
The president can truly quote JFK by saying, ‘My fellow Americans, ask not what your country can do for you, but what you can do for your country’.
