And we need talent from the rest of the world too. If Nigerians can attain Canadian citizenship in 3 years, it’s time we review the 14 years it takes to qualify for the citizenship of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
6.And the alternatives to printing more money is not easy but far more sustainable. The rich are under taxed, the middle subsidized and the poor unserved. Tax the wealthy, take back the subsidies and help the poor. That’s easily 10 trillion annually.
5.Beware Mr President, of the great temptation of the printing press, the easy path to funding your developmental aspirations is laced with poison. Printed money is no free money, just taxes that affect the poor disproportionately via inflation.
https://t.co/7106iGEJlz president, every point of person-to-person contact in the civil service is a point of potential corruption and a brake on growth, embrace e-government. Let’s run this country as efficiently as you ran your campaigns, cut the waste, trust your people.
https://t.co/O2vd3TFJW7 cannot achieve growth by over regulating an economy, time to change the focus of your regulators to growth rather than fee-streaming, let the economy grow and the taxes will come, naturally.
2.If we fail to attract those who make the things we consume and export, we cannot create jobs. All these Uber-powerful regulators who measure success by how much money they can squeeze from companies are not going to help you deliver your mandate.
Respect those who employ.
1.Current government revenue says a lot about what is wrong with our economy. Our systems (regulations + regulators) are not designed to enable growth, at their best, they let the river flow and take a cut, at their worst, they wreck companies and make us less competitive.
A reminder:-
The FGN is not a big government, not really. We can’t solve our problems by shrinking, we need to do more for more people. Growth will not come from less infrastructure or poorer education, it’s time to dream big.
Be disciplined but be ambitious, mega ambitious.

Hubris (taking confidence to a dangerous level) is one of the temptations of highly successful leaders. It makes us believe we alone have all the solutions, but we don’t. We still have weaknesses and blind spots. We must remain open to ideas and help from our team. #leadership
