Thanks, Soludo, for your wise counsel and steady steward-ship at the helm of our nation's economic team. Unfortunately we have a blind & deaf Presidency that would procrastinate & govern with the 1960s' style & mentality rather than position Nigeria to take advantage on this 21st century first and only golden opportunity to re-order the global hierarchy. The damage of Tarry-A-Doer's presidency is to position Nigeria among the bottom 20 global ranking, given his slow-poke approach, which is contrary to OBJ's Vision 20/20 to which Soludo was a part of. What a turn of event that was and well deserved too, if our decision-makers can't think beyond their noses and their personal bank accounts in foreign countries while our peoples continue to encourage mediocre performance from "rulers" with their "sidon & look" gentility while their future prospect is frittered away by an uncaring rogues, expecting God to come to their rescue whereas they each have 2 legs, 2 hands and a brain in their skull.
