Roadmap to a New Nigeria That Is Possible – Part II

Education and Healthcare: The Foundation of a Renewed Nigeria

Recall that on July 1st, in Part 1 of "My Vision for a Productive and Prosperous Nigeria," I outlined the broad framework of my proposed roadmap for national renewal. In it, I emphasised that the transformation of Nigeria must begin with rebuilding our human capital through quality education and healthcare, supported by reforms in Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET), character and civic education, and strategic investments that will move our nation from a consumption-driven economy to a production-driven one. I promised to follow up with other parts in the coming weeks and months.

Today, July 16th, in the middle of July, I wish to expand on these two critical pillars - education and healthcare - because they are the bedrock upon which every prosperous nation is built. They are the cornerstones of the foundation that will ensure that a son of nobody can become somebody and remove many from the ranks of the disaffected who often become tools in the insecurity challenges confronting us.

Evidence from around the world shows that quality education and accessible healthcare are among the clearest distinctions between thriving nations and lagging ones. Princeton University Nobel Prize-winning economist Angus Deaton highlights this reality in his book, “The Great Escape: Health, Wealth, and the Origins of Inequality.”

Nothing, therefore, could be further from the truth than the claim by some young people that “education is a scam.” Education, when combined with good health, provides the ladder for individual upward mobility and drives economic growth for the nation.

We must become more intentional about aligning education with our national priorities, as Singapore did, and challenge our country to value education in the same way Deng Xiaoping repeatedly urged China to do from 1978 onwards, with the remarkable transformation we see today.

We will work through commissions that strengthen collaboration among the tiers of government, ensuring that primary education is domiciled at the community and local government levels, with strong parental involvement and curricula that are sensitive to local economic factor endowments and the value chains derived from them.

State governments will be supported to expand high-quality Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET), as well as general secondary education, through targeted grants and incentives.

We are also developing schemes that will enable universities to focus more deliberately on specialised areas of teaching and research, making them globally competitive while producing a workforce equipped for the demands of the future.

A NEW Nigeria is POssible. -PO

MY GREATEST ADULT DISAPPOINTMENT WAS DISCOVERING THAT BAD PEOPLE GET AWAY WITH EVERYTHING.

[Alex Onyia @winexviv]

The wait is over.

We have 2 golds: Chimdiebube Onwubiko and Don Anele Munachimso.

We are the best in the world!

Egejurum Onyedikachi’s name was omitted. He should have a gold.

[Alex Onyia @winexviv]

The 3 wise men have landed.

Thank God for a safe journey.

We went to Rome and we conquered.

They are the world’s best maths team.

[Alex Onyia @winexviv]

Mark their faces and remember their names: Chimdiebube Onwubiko, Egejurum Onyedikachi Ethan, and Don Anele Munachimso. They will all be global superstars.

You wonder what’s next after the Olympiad? The show is about to begin.

You will follow their live journey to greatness.

We will be introducing an Education Hall of Fame, and they will be inducted. This team will travel to several countries for competitions, and we will all enjoy the journey.

New outstanding students will join them, while those who are going to university will become exco members.

Each and every one of them will get into an Ivy League university in the US or top universities in the UK or Europe.

This is the time for education to take its place in our society.

[Alex Onyia @winexviv]

Today, Enugu Airport was at a standstill when Chimdiebube Onwubiko arrived home with his teacher. Everyone was there to welcome our hero.

This is the greatest educational reception in the South East.

Tomorrow, Imo State will be at a standstill. The government and all the people of Imo State are preparing a grand reception for Egejurum Onyedikachi and Don Anele Munachimso.

They have done the South East proud by becoming world champions in Mathematics.

The educational awakening in the South East has entered another dimension, and this is just the beginning.

[Alex Onyia @winexviv]

This is Mr. Benjamin, and he is in charge of assessments for the International STEM Olympiad.

He said that this year's exam was the toughest ever, and for our boys to get gold, it means they are far ahead of their peers.

Nigeria has the brightest untapped brains globally.

I still CANNOT believe humans were gifted a planet full of trees, fruit, water, animals and sunshine and then they invented debt, capitalism and war.

“The terrorists took her baby twins and threw them to their dogs”😢 😭 🥲😭

Yet Nigerian govt officials refer to these terrorist animals as their “brothers”, and sycophants on this same app defend this satanic party of heartless demons.

My goodness I can’t even watch this clip.

[Nedu_🔥 @Hhonor_]

Helicopters in Nigeria are used for flag parades and rescue missions for terrorists. Law abiding citizens should pay ransom.

[Onyeka Nwelue @onyekanwelue]

Do you see why you people should stop putting dangerous ideas into Alex Onyia’s head to ‘be Minister of Education.”

He must operate independently and have the personal willpower to accomplish things.

Egyptian Christians are never allowed to play football for the Egyptian football team.

But muslim apologists will tell you islam is tolerant.

Ordinary football. You may imagine the kind of discrimination the Christians are facing in other sectors of Egypt.

Please marry right.
A man divorced his wife because she had ₦600k in her account but couldn't pay ₦24k for their daughter's treatment.

She almost died.

Grand Corruption: Nigeria’s Greatest Threat.

The recent report from the IMF consultation further raises concerns about the scale of grand corruption under the Tinubu government. The IMF now reveals that about N8.83 trillion in expenditure undertaken in 2025 is not reflected in the budget. This expenditure is not budgeted and is therefore not under legislative oversight or administrative scrutiny. This is horrible.

N8.83 trillion is as follows:

1.About 2% of our GDP.

2.Over 35% of Nigeria’s 2025 N23.96 trillion capital project budget. In fact, the amount is more than the actual released capital funding for 2025.

https://t.co/Hta3LViCB8 is more than the entire combined budget for education (N3.52 trillion) and health (N2.38 trillion).

If such an amount is properly used and accounted for, it could transform Nigeria’s public health and education sectors. It could create hundreds of cottage industries that can provide jobs for thousands of graduates and build a solid foundation for economic development. But we cannot account for it. This is not an isolated incident.

This is a pattern of grand corruption that has become part of this administration.
We have a lot to worry about regarding the state of corruption under President Tinubu. The sort of corruption that is ingrained in total disregard of elementary rules of public finance management poses a grave danger to national security and the stability of the Nigerian state. The capture of the Nigerian state and the plunder of its resources are actions that undermine the basis of state stability and deepen poverty and state failure.

This recent revelation proves that the APC government is grossly corrupt, incompetent, and insensitive. With the growing poverty and the urgent need for significant upgrades to social and physical infrastructure, a responsible and responsive government would ensure that N8.83 trillion is prudently utilised to address these gaps. But not the Tinubu administration.

A few days ago, I called on President Tinubu to resign from office for incompetence, lack of capacity, lack of compassion, and failure to improve on his campaign promises. Some people thought perhaps the call was excessive. But with the daily revelations of pervasive corruption in this administration and its total lack of commitment to the welfare and security of Nigerian citizens, the only reasonable action is for President Tinubu to resign from office. The collapse of elementary forms of due process under Tinubu and the increased evidence of rampant looting of Nigerian public finances reinforce the need for greater accountability. It is now time for Nigerian citizens to rise within the law and hold this administration to account.

A New Nigeria is POssible. -PO

SHOCKING: Yesterday in Kaboji, Mashegu LGA, Niger State, a fierce clash erupted between Dogo Gide’s bandits and Lakurawa fighters. Multiple gunmen were injured.
A military helicopter then landed in the community (near a school/cemetery) and evacuated the wounded bandits, sparking massive outrage and claims the Army is assisting terrorists.

[Shehu Gazali Sadiq @Rejoice_inlife]

Reports that Nigeria military helicopter was used to airlift injured terrorists after clash with rival groups.

Once again I will tell you that no one can explain Nigeria to you.
