The founder of the African Renaissance Party, ARP, and
Director, Institute for African Renaissance Studies and realisation, Yahaya
Ndu, has tackled the presidential candidate of the Labour Party, LP, Peter Obi,
over his recent trip to Egypt.
Ndu, who is also a presidential candidate of one of the
eighteen political parties for the 2023 election, said that Obi could have gone
to Afghanistan to study how the United States of America failed after sinking
trillions of dollars.
Peter Obi recently made a 3-day visit as part of his
detailed study of comparable countries to Nigeria.
The former Governor of Anambra State said he will understudy
the Egyptian Power, Education and other sectors of their economy during his
3-day visit to Egypt.
But Ndu sees the trip as unnecessary, arguing that there are
thousands of experts in energy and power including electricity presently within
the Nigerian borders and abroad.
He also appealed to President Muhammadu Buhari to reconsider
the move by his administration to concession the Ajaokuta steel mill.
“Trending news has it that the presidential candidate of the
Labour Party took off to Egypt to study the country’s power sector,” the former
ARP presidential candidate told the press in Abuja on Saturday.
“This country is full of ridiculous politicians.
“He should go to Afghanistan to study how the United States
failed there, after sinking trillions of dollars and left in shame without
achieving anything
“Nigeria has hundreds if not thousands of experts in energy
and power including electricity presently within our borders and abroad.
“All we need is to engage them and give them opportunities
to clear their part. No need to go to Egypt.
“Which reminds me, we have been hearing about the so-called
concessioning of the Ajeokuta steel mill.
“Permit me to use this opportunity to appeal to President
Muhammadu Buhari to please reconsider and put
this move on hold in the interest of the nation.
“Ajaokuta steel is too vital an interest to be concessioned
to strangers. When true patriots come into power come 2023, In Sha Allah it
would be handed over to a team of Nigerian and African Engineers and the
Nigerians society of engineers to run.”

People sef.
ReplyDeleteWith all the thousands of expert engineers, yet currently there's no light in my area, and I will pay for not having light. Why the poor power supply for years without solutions?
Oga if you don't know what to say, better keep mute than condemning good moves that will change NIGERIA
