The Primary Role of Government

The primary role of Government is creating an enabling environment for businesses to thrive. Implying that the core value for that is deep thinking 24x7 problem solving skill; problems like, how can average time spent in traffic be reduced to 1 hour on the longest route for 365 days in Lagos, Nigeria.

What are you doing in the Management of Ministry of Transport, if this is not on your front burner, for crying out loud???

If you are in the Ministry of Finance, it should be on your front burner, how the Government can efficiently and effectively allocate available resources and more importantly track deployment and ensure exponential returns on all the investment.This should be why you wake up everyday and go there and i really do hope, the idea on Treasury single account is your idea.

If you are in Defense, the obvious security narrative of crime happening for 1 hour and above without any restrain from anyone in the security architecture anywhere on land and sea, within our borders must be crashed to at least 10 minutes. There must be an engagement  good enough to restrain criminality for 15 minutes within which reinforcement of some sort can arrive.

If you are in the Ministry of Health, know that Government investment in Health needs to translate to measurable ROI significant for our GDP appreciation: No arm of Government is set up to be a Parasitic Parastatal.Let is be on your front burner to convert this year investment to at least a Return five times more.This should start with Policy Formulations that is centered at improving adult mortality rate which was 31.83 deaths per 100 in 2015, obviously more now. Infant mortality rate stood at over 100  per 1000.

If you are in the Ministry of Power, the burner should be super heated now, finding ways to provide 24hours by 365 uninterrupted Power Supply.

Ministry of Art and Culture must be think tank for how all our invisible intellectual works of Art can become visible at the world stage. Every time I visited Yabatech, Lagos, I am amazed how such a gold mine is not a tourist centre for fine Arts. That is one school out of 100s around the country with amazing works of art.

For the Ministry of Foreign and Interior Affairs, that should be the Think Tanks For Projecting all that make us Nigeria, in Nigeria and at the World Stage, to the ends, our citizens, proudly Celebrate Nigeria locally and internationally. Make it More Honourable to carry the
Green Passport than any other Passport.
