GUARANTEED SOLUTIONS – Dream On!!! We are still (well some of us) want to have our cake and eat it. Many will say transformation programmes are under way; others might ask at what cost and how long will they take. Some might add that too little money has been invested maintaining the status quo and not enough in sustainable policies/programmes. Health, Education, Shelter, Job, Security and Electrical power are small perks that will help to increase one’s quality of life. Even at the rate some policies are being implemented, is there the necessary WILL to ensure that they are going to be successful and make a profound impact on the wellbeing of the average citizen (that means the impoverished, under 30 and female majority). Come 2015, what candidate would dare to push the following agenda, with the premise that when the pain and penalties hit home; things would change. NO Elected Representative, Public Service Officer or Union Official may; UTILISE A POLICEMAN OR ANY OTHER PUBLIC SECTOR EMPLOYED SECURITY PERSONNEL AS A PRIVATE SECURITY GUARD FOR THEMSELVES OR THEIR FAMILY. Out of a force of 377,000 officers –“ Over 100,000 policemen are believed to be attached to individuals and corporate organisations as guards to the detriment of the security of the generality of Nigerians.” punchng/news/abubakar-succumbs-to-vip-pressure/ SEEK HEALTHCARE OUTSIDE OF NIGERIA FOR THEMSELVES OR ANY MEMBER OF THEIR FAMILY. “Nigerians spend over $465 million per annum on overseas healthcare, while the bulk of the population cannot even afford decent medical care.” Business Day – Funke Osae Brown – Official! One doctor to 64000 patients SEEK EDUCATIONAL SUPPORT OUTSIDE OF NIGERIA FOR THEMSELVES OR ANY MEMBER OF THEIR FAMILY. Annually Nigeria spends over N1.5 trillion ($9.75 billion US) on students studying abroad. Total expenditure on foreign education currently is nearly six times the national budget for the education sector. OWN A POWER GENERATOR. “Nigeria spends N3.5trn ($19 Billion) annually on fuel to power generators” - vanguardngr/.../nigeria-spends-n3-5trn-annually-on-power-generators/ OWN A PROPERTY OUTSIDE OF NIGERIA. Officially we require 17 million quality homes, unofficially the number could be double this figure OWN A BANK ACCOUNT OR HAVE ANY INVESTMENTS OUTSIDE OF NIGERIA. Since Independence our mis “leaders” have stolen over $400 Billion which they have salted overseas (mainly in the UK, Switzerland, France and Germany). I can hear one ask, “what have you been smoking?” NOTHING!! Just dreaming…..
