OMO:
Merry Xmas and a Happy New Year!
I am sure you will agree with me on this note:
I am CONSISTENT in my opinions even if you might consider some or all
of my opinions CONSISTENTLY wrong and off base.
So score me an A--for consitency!!!!
Nigeria will be great one day soon. But achieving that greatness will not come easy.
Prayers alone not even even by 100 million Nigerian Redeemites and 50 million more devoted Muslims 24/7 will not do it.
The daily yabis on the Internet (including the endless of cursing of the political leaders--they deserve it) even by the brightest of Diaspora Nigerians will also not do it.
Expounding economic theories without accompanying practical actions is probably also not the solution that
will solve the problems that face our people in Nigeria.
All the microcredit financing and Emergecy Driver Crash Programs will amount to nothing more than band
aid solutions if we dispense with the current realities of our dire situation. One can easily see evidence of such programs
all over Nigeria--from Poverty Eradication Program supplied tricycles, to the loans provided to poor traders and other examples. But have these programs lifted the overwhelming majority of Nigerians out of poverty?
If I were in your shoes I will be using my skills to provide the following in Nigeria:
1) adequate supply of affordable electrical energy supplies for domestic and industrial uses. This is the basic ingredient
for prosperity in an increasingly technology dependent world. The provision of every other important infrastructure only builds
on this item
2) revamp the education system--Nigeria cannot be a rich nation if we keep up on producing a population 80% of
semilierate or illiterate citizenry. As recentky reported 80% of the candidates didnot achieve enough credits to merit a Diploma in the recently concluded WAEC exams. A country in which a significant number of her university graduates
can barely read or write comprehensible English is not one that is about to become a rich nation in the next ten years.
3) curb official corruption--(it cannot be eliminated).
A nation does need to be 100% corruption free in order to achieve economic progress. There are published studies
by eminent scholars which have indicating that corruption by itself alone is not necessarily the major drawback to socio-economic development,
Look after those three items--and Nigeria will be on her way to prosperity, if not in 10 years but definitely in 20 years!
Prosperity cannot happen overnight in Nigeria because we already have considerable inbuilt structural, infrastructural and educational deficits that need to be either corrected or accomodated before we can begin to see sunshine as we climb up from the hole we have dug for ourselves.
Bye,
Ola

"The reason for the above conclusion is that even if by a magic wand we are able to eradicateofficial corruption overnight in Nigeria and that Nigeria's resources are applied at an impossibl;e100% efficiency, the situation will be definitely better in Nigeria but is unlikely to ever approach that of a rich nation in the next ten years not to mention now.This assertion is based on the reality of our demographics. Nigeria has a huge population. Any gains in productivitye,g as expressed in increased GNP will be largely diluted when we we divide the GNP by the overall population to obtain the GDP..A huge well educated young population is no doubt an admirable economic asset to any nation--either deleoped or developing.The same is not true for a country with a huge badly skewed population with almost 40% under 25 youths, the vast majority of whom are either poorly educated or have never attended school. A huge population of unskilled and and unemployableyoung citizens constitutes a drag and not necessarily an asset to the socio-0economic growth of the country." Dr. Ola 'Yahaya' Kassim
Greetings-- I was following your 'epiphanic sojourn back to motherland' with ease until you decided to recoil back to your 'old self', delving into areas of disciplines you have ABSOLUTELY no expertise, namely Physical Economics.
-- First, how did you come to that non-scientific conclusion that if corruption were abated and our resources applied efficiently over a period of 10 years, we would unlikely approach status of a rich nation? I know where you are going ... rewind that statement and guage how unintelligent it sounds ... is 10 years the basis for a return on investment on 'long-term' national investment? so where does your random number proceed from..?
-- Second, on what basis does your non-scientific comparison of GDP as a factor of productivity factor into GNP as a measure of economic growth.? How exactly, do you measure GNP as a process of 'dubious' exponential increase in financial and monetary aggregates ( take current USA for example as a rich nation ) compared to a sharp decline the physical aggregates ( machine tool production and manufacturing ) yet GNP is still HIGH ( yet high unemployment, declining skilled professionals), how would your 'definition of productivity' factor into that scenario ?
-- Lastly, you drove your point straight to d'coco ( the crux of your intent)-- your over-population dilemma, the bane of Nigeria's under-development ... But even further you reveal your disdain for the future by castigating the 'almost 40% under 25' unskilled Youth as a drag on progress? What's your solution again Mr. Global Millenium Agenda--depopulation, right ? since Technological intervention even with visionary leadership IS not a solution to your bru(I)tish dreams of SUSTAINABLE economy, how do you suggest we get rid of the 'excess feeders' Dr. Yahaya?
I tire sef for you Dr. Ola, you dey show your nyash too much -- just like your Brirish sponsors, your Malthusian philosophy on 'limits to growth' is fueled by that anti-human mindset that rejects 'creativity' as a inherent function of every human--- have you heard of emergency scientific -driver crash programs as a way of galvanizing 'unskilled population' to productive work ? Have you heard of National Credit System operating within long-term low interest rates, to create legitimate debts, under which those so called 'expensive infrastructure' projects become part of dynamic long-term profit yeilding national pride? No, you aren't, rather seems you are obsessed with 'controlled sustainable disintegration' and 'money value ' as factors that drive a 'real economy'? We see where you are coming from, I rather you try a different angle to cloak your duplicity.
Cheers,
O.M.O.

Dear Brother Cyber Agbekoya (Olowo Ori Alhaja):Thanks for your insightful and well thought out response to the provocative segmentsin my last post on this thread. I apologize that some of my comments have upset your usualself composed demeanour. But such is the nature of truth! It can be very bitter and unsettling especially whenpresented without any sugar coating.Incidentally, I also agree with most of your analysis about the Nigerian situation.Not surprisingly, the only points of disagreement I have with your submission are thoseareas in which you disagree with mine.This response will address only those areas in which we disagree:A) I stand by my assertion that notwithstanding her abundant natural and human resources,Nigeria our beloved motherland, remains a poor country by world standards and is by any objectivemeasure an impoverished nation by western standards. Nigeria is poorer today than it was in1960 when she obtained independence from Great Britain. I wish the reverse were true; but thisis the blunt truth. Nigeria can only be considered a rich nation in the company of her African neighbours outside of South Africa and Egypt.I have travelled to many regions of the world including many developed and developing countries and thethe emerging economies including China, Malaysia Singapore etc. I believe I can reasonably tell at least subjectively a rich countryfrom a poor one.One of the most enduring delusions suffered by many Nigerians including learned ones like yourself is the idea thatNigeria is a wealthy country because it has oil reserves, mineral deposits, abundant fertile land and a huge young population.Nigerians often confuse the potential to be rich with the fact of being rich. Potentiality does not reality make!How do we measure the wealth of a nation?We may chose to apply some of the following objective measures either in aggregateor piece meal. They are:1) The Annual Wellness Index (WHO)2) CIA World Fact Book3) GDP/GNP4) Maternal and Infant Mortality Rates5) Morbidity Rate6) Life Expectancy7) Population Growth Rate/Fertility Rate8) Crude and Specific Death Rates9) Literacy rates10) Degree of Industrialization/Electrification12) Foreign Currency Reserves12) Happiness Index13) Corruption Index--(e,g as per Transparency International)14) Etc. etc. etc.You will likely agree with me that with the exception of items #7 and #12(i.e. population growth and fertility rates and Happiness Index)Nigeria regularly scores below the 25th percentile in annual published figuresin the above statistical data,B) While I would agree that the socio-economic condition of the average Nigerian willdefinetely improve with better governance orchestrated by well educated, patriotic, competent and honest leaders,I am inclined to believe that such improvement will be marginal at best and that it might takemore than a decade to pull Nigeria out of its dire straits not to even meantion the nebulousVision 20:20 idea.The reason for the above conclusion is that even if by a magic wand we are able to eradicateofficial corruption overnight in Nigeria and that Nigeria's resources are applied at an impossibl;e100% efficiency, the situation will be better in Nigeria but would be definitely but but is unlikely to ever approach that of a rich nation i9n the next ten years not to mention now.This assertion is based on the reality of our demographics. Nigeria has a huge population. Any gains in productivitye,g as expressed in increased GNP will be largely diluted when we we divide the GNP by the overall population to obtain the GDP..A huge well educated young population is no doubt an admirable economic asset to any nation--either deleoped or developing.The same is not true for a country with a huge badly skewed population with almost 40% under 25 youths, the vast majority of whom are either poorly educated or have never attended school. A huge population of unskilled and and unemployableyoung citizens constitutes a drag and not necessarily an asset to the socio-0economic growth of the country.I wish I could share your optimism for Nigeria under good guidance to the fullest. Unfortunately I am unable to do due to thereality on the ground.Nigeria is currently in a Catch 22 situation. We need sufficient electrical enregy supplies to power our economy out of its current moribund statebut the available resources are insufficient to to purchase all the power plants we require in order to be self sufffient in elecltrical power production without incurring massive and crippling foreign debts. Even if we can find a nuclear nation willing to sell Nuclea Power plants to Nigeria, I doubt if we have sufficient resources left overafter addressing our annual recurrent recurrent and already commited capital expenditures. A good example of the inability of Nigeria to pay her way out of our economic misery is the stalled east west railways proposal by the ARRT--a Canada based Rail technology firm owned by a Nigerian which has worldwide operations including the latest one in Iraq. Even under a Public Private Partnership proposal, the FGN of Nigeriais unable to pay for its own end of the deal with the rest provided by foreign private concerns.C) finally I would agree readily that a more streamlined and less expensive governance model will defineetely leave a lot more resources for the development of Nigeria, than in the current situation whereby the legislative arms of the government consume 25% of the natural resources accruing to the FGN withoput running a single ministry.
In closing I will like to paraphrase Pastor Adeboye. I believe all will be well eventually for Nigeria--but it that it will take more than just prayers.I hope you will give my rebuttal on our points of disagreement a second consideration and that you will banish from your conscious thought process any notion that Nigeria as currently configured is a rich nation. A nation in which more than 50% of the population survives on less than$2.00 a day is hardly one that uis about to get rich quickly.Merry Xmas and a Happy New Year. Please keep some of the eran Ileya (ram meat) if you haveany leftas I will be back in Nigerian at the end of February 2011, God willing.Bye,Ola

Nigeria is a poor country with a rich taste. Governance in a country such as Nigeria is not an easy task. The resources available to governments at all levels are insufficient
to adequately address the gargantuan problems afflicting the people. Hence the need to cut the political leaders like OGD some flack, even while stressing that
they could still do a littlle better with the resources at hand

Dr. Kassim,
I find the above segment from your response unfortunate. If I want to be charitable I will attribute it to your long stay outside the country. I disagree with everything you said and indeed imply here.
First you said, Nigeria is a poor country. I am sure we are not talking about the same Nigeria. What is 'poor' about Nigeria? Is it the large and very young population, the clement weather year round, the large expanse of arable land, or the minerals which abound. Do we talk about the ingenuity and dynamism of the population etc etc. Nigeria is not a poor country by any account.
You said the people have rich taste. I am sure you do not refer to the vast majority of people you must have come across during your visit to Nigeria. The young man with the diseased foot surely does not have rich taste, all he wants is decent health care and a chance to earn a living. Nigerians do not have rich taste, all we want is working infrastructure, the type you take for granted in Canada. There is nothing 'rich' about the tastes and expectations of the average Nigerian, all he wants from his govt is just the tools to have decent human existence like other people elsewhere.
There is nowhere in the world where governance is an easy task, that is why it is a task usually assigned to the best and brightest in any society. Unfortunately, for us, we are governed by dregs, some of whom have never held down a honest day's employment and some of whom would not be fit to supritend the cleaning of the community latrine. Those are the people with rich taste, those are the people who are casting the vast majority of Nigerians in abject penury.
When you say we should cut our leaders some slack because the available resources are insufficient to tackle the gargantuan problems we face, you open yourself to justifiable charges of insensitivity and criminal collusion with our oppressors. Our resources are more than enough if they are to be expended only towards the welfare of our people and not to cater for the opulent tastes of those you want us to cut some slack. I am sure you know Abuja well, and you can see the manner of life of our political elite, so pray sir, tell us, how there will be sufficient resources for govt hospitals to treat that young man, when we spend 25% of our govt overhead on our national assembly. If you factor in, what is spent on the Federal executive, the state executive and the over 700 local govts, how do you think there will be available resources. By the time you add what is pilfered, then it is a miracle that anything is left for the people. Yet, you ask that we cut this people some slack!
It is shocking that an adult Nigerian will claim that the govt 'could do a little better' with the available resources. If the rogues ruling us will stop stealing and make way for those with competence, vision and dynamism, we would not just be a little better, we would be a completely different country.
As someone who sleeps and wakes each blessed day, in the jungle that is Nigeria today, I find your comments ignorant, insensitive and offensive!

Dear Yemi:Please let this matter rest!As you will definitely recall I informed you during our last telephone conversation(while you were still in Ngeria) that I have decided not to pursue a legal redress for the unwarranted slanderousaccusations directed at my person by Yinka Odumakin. This is because launching such a lawsuit would beincompatible with my usual advice against fellow Nigerians suing one another for alleged libelous statements made on theInternet (e.g Emeka Ugwuonye Vs Bolaji Aluko, Val Ojo et al and a few cases).I will let the words in my last rejoinder to Yinka Odumakin stand on this matter.By boldly asserting unsubstantiated allegations of corruption against me,Yinka Odumakin stands forever mightily diminished in my presence, if not in the presence of others.While his slander against me is not necessarily unforgivable,I can assure you that it is an unforgettable transgression. I have a memory on issues like this that is almost comparable to the proverbiallonglasting memory of the elephant. I can forgive; but I will never forget!Again--please let this matter rest.It is Xmas time--a Season to be Jolly--not one to dwell on transgressions directed at us by fellow human beings.Pity him for his ignorance!-------------Moving on to more important issues---I am back in Toronto for Xmas. I survived Lagos including a serious MVA on Ikorodu Road on the way to the MM International Airport on my way out of Nigeria --in which aMolue conductor who was hanging outside of his vehicle almost lost his life. Luckily for him and all others concerned he suffered only a few minor abrasions on both legs.I enjoyed Abuja and I was also able to spend some blissful happy momentswith my 97 year old aunt at Aiyepe, Ogun state--my paternal hometown.On another matter, while my support for your personal political aspirations in Nigeria remains as unflinching as ever,(no matter your political affiliation) please let OGD know that his government is not popular amongst the masses at Aiyepe. For whatever reasonthe people blame their dire socio-economic conditions primarily on the OGD government and secondarily on the Chairmanand the Councillors at the Odogbolu-Aiyepe-Okunowa local goverment. The Jonathan led FGN is so far removedfrom the lives of the ordinary citizens that it might as well not exist. The people sneer at the mention of their Senator and themember to the House of Reps in Abuja considering the only dividends of democracy they see are the few mansions thesepoliticians have built or are building for themselves --(the occassional islands of opulence and glutonny in a vast ocean of poverty, hunger and disease)in the town.For the sake of fairness I would be remiss not to mention that I also observed some concrete positive edifices that were built by theOGD government.While driving back to Lagos on the Ijebuode Sagamu Highway, I noticed some of the positive infrastructures built by the the OGD government.The state stadium and the adjoining NYSC camp are no doubt well built and maintained. The Awo Statue near the entrance to Ikenne from the highwayis magnificent. We also drove by the impressive current and future campuses of the Olabisi Onabanjo Teaching hospital in Sagamu. The campus is impressive.I also noticed the low cost housing units by the side of the highway in Ikenne that are in the final stages of construction. Though privately owned, the magnificent andwell maintained academic campus of Babcock University in Ilishan should be a pride to all Ogun citizens. I have not visited Abeokuta, Ago-Iwoye and other regionsof Ogun state in almost three decades, but I am aware that some progress is also beind made in these cities, for example highway construction and other infrastructureprojects. Please let OGD know that Aiyepe is badly in need of a major job creating infrastructure project!Nigeria is a poor country with a rich taste. Governance in a country such as Nigeria is not an easy task. The resources available to governments at all levels are insufficientto adequately address the gargantuan problems afflicting the people. Hence the need to cut the political leaders like OGD some flack, even while stressing thatthey could still do a littlle better with the resources at hand.My people at Aiyepe complain that they have not received any personal dividends even after almost twelve years of democratic government.The people are mostly jobless and hungry. The population of the town is slowly increasing as dispirited unemployed and unemployable young men in their twentiesand thirties are returning home unable to cope in Lagos, Ibadan, Abuja and other major cities due to high level of unemployment. A few of these young men are now engaging in armedrobbery while I saw two who had arrived back in town with serious infectitious diseases.While at Aiyepe I was asked to see a 28year old man with a massively swollen right foot with multipleprotruding necrotic fungal "tumor" masses. I concluded at first sight that what he unfortunately brought back home after a hellishly rough life in Lagos is a classic textbookcase of "Madura Foot"--a fungal disease which was being wrongly treated with anti-bacterial agents instead of antifungal drugs. Neither he nor his family can afford thecost of the drugs. I advised the local doctor to refer him to Olabisi Onabanjo Teaching Hospital, Sagamu which is currently not accepting patients as the staff are on strikeor to UCH in Ibadan. Either way, I promised to obtain and send the required medications upon my return to TorontoThe only positive aspects of life in Aiyepe andprobably most other small towns and villages in Nigeria are the resillient positive spirit of the people which belie their daily sufferings and the meticulous attention theydevote to ensuring clean surroundings. PHCN seems never able to provide electricity for more than 3 hours every otherday, the roads both major and minor remain untarred as they have always been since the early 1960s. Most of the old heritage houses are desertedwhile those inhabuted are poorly maintained.While driving back to Lagos on the Ijebuode Sagamu Highway, I noticed some of the positive infatsurctures built by the the OGD government.The state stadium and the adjoining NYSC camp are no doubt well built and maintained. The Awo Statue near the entrance to Ikenne from the highwaywas magnificent. We also drove by the impressive current and future campuses of the Olabisi Onabanjo Teaching hospital in Sagamu. The campus is impressive.Things are back to the past --pre 1960s in Nigeria. At night the people the masses who cannot afford to buy generators and diesel oil reachout for Atupa. Others reach out for contraptions like Oju ti NEPA--which has now been updated courtesy of the Chinese--just as was predictedabout a year ago. More on that later!The Nigerian manufacturing sector is on its knees! We cannot manufacture our own Oju Ti NEPA in large quantities. The Chinese had to do it for us.The Nigeria of the Buskas--the rascal sons of bad fathers is not the one I wish to retire to. Solution--lets send the Buskas to deserted islandsor some oases in thethey are the ones destroying Nigeria:)Bye,OlaPlease call me before Xmas day. I have changed my cellphone.
