“The Eiffel Tower was built in the 1800s. Today, that structure is the center of the economy of Paris, the Pyramids built in the days of Moses, still feed Egypt, the Walls of China, the Leaning Tower of Pissa and the Ruins of Rome.

“What structures do we have, to drive economic development and help trigger different dreams. Where can you see those iconic landmarks in Nigeria? How have their values been maximized? Visit our Museums. Yet we want the artifacts were taken away, that are getting the best treatment, to be returned. Laughable.

“We live from hand to mouth. We sell oil. Spend it. Drill for more oil. Spend it and the fraction we even spend is small. The rest of the money stolen. We have been stolen blind. And the thieves are living large amongst us. And we can see them but can’t make them face the music.

“We must start creating the future, developing our infrastructures now and prepare them for the next generation. Buhari needs to act now. He must act now.”
