Thank you Ruben, you have done it again by focusing on aspects of our industries that have suffered defeat due to our lopsided economy. Nigeria relies mainly on oil revenue which will evaporate in a few more years.

Suffice to say we have not managed anything successfully since independence, Nigeria is tethering on self inflicted extinction. It has become a poacher’s heaven for making quick bucks and getting away fast.

Without a massive investment on roads, bridges, and railways; Nigeria will seize to function. The wretchedness will grind things to a halt, and essentially put the country back to the Stone Age.
