We need to re-establish the integrity of Nigeria, says Buhari

Presidency issues Press statement:

“President Muhammadu Buhari on Monday in Abuja stressed the urgent need to ensure that the potentials of Nigeria are harnessed and used for the good of the country. Receiving the President of the International Civil Aviation Organisation (ICAO), Dr Bernard O. Aliyu at the State House, Abuja, President Buhari declared: “Nigeria needs to work on her potentials, so that we don’t remain permanently at the level of potentials.
“If Ethiopia is sustained largely by her airline industry, we have greater potentials here. But we must move out, engage with the rest of the world, as we need to re-establish the integrity of this country. We need to rebuild this country again.” The President recounted that for the greater part of the last 16 years, oil sold above $100 per barrel but expressed regret that the nation did not have much to show for it. “In the First Republic, more enduring infrastructure was built with meagre resources. But in the past 16 years, we made a lot of money without planning for the rainy day. “We showed a lot of indiscipline in managing our economy, and that is why we are where we are today. But this time round, we’ll do our best.” Dr Aliyu, the Nigerian-born ICAO president commended President Buhari for strides on anti- corruption, and urged Nigeria to pay more attention to development of civil aviation. “Civil aviation is a catalyst for economic development. The level of aviation development in any country mirrors the economic development of that country,” Dr Aliyu said. The ICAO president pledged to support the development of the aviation industry in Nigeria, urging the country to improve on training and capacity development, aviation security, aerodromes and air navigation, runways, control towers, terminal buildings, among others.

CAN YOU KEEP THIS FOR THE LEADERS AND THEIR ADVISERS TO READ AND RE-READ IT AGAIN; as they say the mind goes dim – let us see if by this time it’ll be rightly prodded! My people say: To be able talk to the Igwes or your leaders by way of remand, you need to do so masking your face; well in this case, as things now stand I don’t think it that necessary to do so by masking because everything now is not clear but obvious afflicting every spheres of the activities of the people! The unfortunate was that you spent your time and available funds thinking about your selves and family (aggrandisement am thinking about the case in hand about Senate President B. Saraki and the finger pointing to Chief Asewaju Bola Tinubu, which you’ll discover if you take the pains, is a commonplace), clans, religion and customs and you forgot that the population is on the increase – reminds you of that Christie Igbokwe’s rendition thus: “….. children crying mama’mo, iyami’o so on and so forth!” We pray that Buhari can do something this time around but please (for goodness sake) try to avoid the incursions/ intrusions of the past Heads of State – if anything, they will want you not to succeed especially now that it is obvious that they failed and the woes of Nigeria derived from their own shortcomings or failures to manage and supervise the resources of Nigeria well!

Not because you said it Mr. President, the need is more than overdue – a country which is not only willing to utilise her trained personnel but keeps her experienced citizenry out of the set-ups including your politics by alienation and these are growing old and moreover, she (Nigeria) has the policy of throwing/ giving away her God given natural resources to foreign counties I am talking about your crude oil here, to refine and you not only import it back but you do so with subsidies attached must be heading to ‘cataclysm’ of sought! It is not surprising what is happening in the country with your fuel and other social and economic problems! Rather than use the God given endowments to establish structures that will provide your growing population with jobs and employments you gave out what you have comparative advantage of only to now stand on queues determined by the whims and caprices of the dealers home and abroad, waiting for part of the final produce to be imported – sent back to you!

See the irony in the arrangement as if you do not know it whoever advised for the arrangement or policy; The host countries where the crude is refined has no more problems about fuel scarcity, they sell part of it (bye-products) to other countries as their own export thus boosting their own ‘foreign exchange’ all at you behest and you end up with your empty vehicle ‘tanks’ and ‘jerry cans’ – cup in hand, as it were, not only struggling but moaning to buy fuel! Whoever gave you people that advice in the first place part reason for my use of the phrase – “Nigeria in a QUANDARY AFFLICTING PhD HOLDERS ALSO!!”

Look, as you consider and discuss the varied social and political problems of Nigeria you tend to be persuaded to describe what you see or experienced of the leadership by that (IT) acronym – http://www.Confused-Nigeria.com; I not only attended but listened to the speeches delivered in the Seminar at the Queen Elizabeth II Centre Victoria St. London 4th and 5th April 2016 to say that I did not see much of the solid minerals displayed particularly the much desired bitumen in its natural form for your roads and highway construction, apart from the obvious important others, which should bring about a huge sigh of relief in the pre-occupation of Nigerians perturbed by the deplorable states of your highways! Natural 0bitumen is the material you need for your highways construction not the kind of asphalt derived from petroleum product somebody should have told you people about this ‘critical part’ about highway construction!

Then came the speech delivered about ‘women empowerment’ and I wondered in a jiffy, why not they look up my solution in both the two events held at the Centre – you see, this is part reason for my feeling of aghast sometimes discussing problems of Nigeria! I want the attention of RICHARDSON, Vic and the others who have in the past picked holes in my criticisms/ comments to think about my concern and the names I mentioned contained on my website and my boo; “How to get at your government and influence it!” The idea in that was (is) as they read the contents and my thinking and being friendly or in close contact with the officials and the politicians, they could bring into their discourses my solutions and how they can help out in specific areas, which you’ll agree probably happened because of the similarities in the government policy declarations for Nigeria and incidentally my solutions/ideas not only look similar but they precede the pronouncements and they term it a form (kind) of telepathy going on! ‘Course I don’t accept the ludicrous reason considering that they have copies of my publications and correspondences on the subjects! Just to say like I did earlierthat: –

My experience in Nigeria mirrors that proverbial, thus: – To get into the Kingdom of heaven, will take (pose for) the ‘unrepentant rich’ person such a difficulty (formidable) comparable for a camel to easily attempt to get through the eye of the needle even with its meekness, Mat. 5: 6 and 19:23.

Thus in this illustration I am assuming ironically that Nigeria is the Kingdom and you or I in our meekness by virtue of the compatible solutions we have submitted for the problems in Nigeria, have been assiduously knocking on the doors of Nigeria’s Administration all these years with the solutions we need for our country yet the gates to the ‘stables’ remain locked up as a hindrance! Think for a moment
my citation of Dangote & Company and Abia State government trying now to build their roads with concrete base to give what we call ‘rigid construction’ in Building and Civil Engineering Construction Industry and, in particular that my ‘New political leadership solution – if they can only comprehend the import’, I said was submitted by hand, to both the Senate President’s and the SGF offices in ABUJA on 2nd Feb. 2015 are meant to serve the purpose of the ‘theme’ of the London Seminar held on the 4th and 5th April 2016 – talking about my solutions preceding the policy declarations indeed!

About women empowerment you wonder who should lead the campaign in this regard in Nigeria and in Africa, as a matter of fact, so as to give it the desired oomph- from the trappings, you’re not doing the right thing wholehear-tedly yet, folks? I am saying to Make up you minds because others did it and they succeeded in their countries, why are you dithering in Nigeria? Look, I said it already of Nigeria’s problems is that about: Who do you tell and he/ she is willing/ ready
to act and do so early realising that you are in office to serve the people and not for yourselves! The National Orientation jingle and your Laws must bear these two important ‘germ’ for the politicians and public office holders! Toend this submission – they, by they I mean your Political Scientist, should study my; New political leadership solution which encompasses relief for all the complaints about marginalisation in Nigeria and will enable the fostering of the cohesion and tranquillity i.e. wholesome participation, you need for economic growth – in effect doing to the goose what you’ve done for the ganders or vice-versa, whichever is more appropriate now for Nigeria!
