It has been most interesting "hearing" the lament of former president, Olusegun Obasanjo on the lack of adequate synergy between the Private and Public sectors of the economy. OBJ must be a new convert, because it had been rumoured that when he came into office, more or less straight from Abacha's gulag, he was most resentful of the personal successes that he met on the ground.
As it is, he has had his own Road-to-Damascus conversion on this matter. That is a good thing. However I wonder if this occurred early enough to positively influence decision making in the Obasanjo Presidency. Or did he wait until he was out of office and is now checking out how the shoe fits on the other foot? . That would have been a disastrous waste. Every subsequent regime stating from Yar'Adua needed to stand on the shoulders of its predecessor.
Regarding poor leadership, I wonder who former President Obasanjo was referring to. Did he include himself, before, during and after his presidency? We would love to know, especially now that his agemates are wrapping up.
God bless Nigeria!
He does. Can Nigeria grab the blessing?
That's the real question.
