My friend, lets keep it real & keep our focus on local issues that DIRECTLY affect our polity, like how we have short-changed ourselves before the rest of the world. Take for example the upcoming Brass LNG project, when the USA firm that is handling this project worked on a similar billion dollar project in India (the Reliance Refinery), they were compelled by the host community, owners & nation to construct an entirely new ultra-modern city in that location, and they gladly did. So when they got this BRASS LNG project, drawing from their Reliance experience, this USA firm proposed to construct an ultra-modern city in BRASS, Bayelsa, complete with all the modern infrastructures obtainable in USA; highways, power plants, sewage, portable-water etc. However, our own dear NNPC top-minds, expunged this from the project! I am thinking of writing about this, however, am not quite prepared mentally, & materially to deal with the possible consequence of such action because I work for this firm and I so dearly love my job, but it makes my heart bleed, when I think of how we constantly undermine ourselves in the face of the free world!
We as a nation are where we are now, because we constantly fail to ask for proper directions.
