I Have A Dream Of A New Nigeria – Oby Ezekwesili
Former Minister of Solid Minerals and Education Dr Oby Ezekwesili has said that she has a dream for a new Nigeria.
Dr. Oby Ezekwesili said this during the formal unveiling of her roadmap to lift 80 million Nigerians out of poverty and unlock prosperity for every Nigerian family on Monday.
Dr. Oby Ezekwesili Speaking she said When I am president, we will set the vision; we will lead on policy; we will ensure smarter, better and clearer regulations; we will help correct important market failures; and we will, of course, invest in critical areas like developing the human capital to power our 21st century economy and leading the way on big ticket infrastructure. She further said the ‘Nigeria we would start building from 2019 would not trudge into the future with uncertainty like chickens when we have all it takes to soar with confidence like eagles.
‘ I want to reignite belief in Nigeria’s greatness by leading a government that would make clear promises to citizens and deliver on them, not like the current leadership which spent its first year in office denying all the promises it made to get into that office.
‘My mission is not just to change this APCPDP government, but more than that, we must disrupt the politics and governance of the status quo and quickly chart a new course for the future of our country. We have enough young people, many progressive men and women, who are signing up with our citizens’ party, ACPN, to unleash the principles of disruptive technologies to our politics for good.
