Kaduna’s VAT And A New Pecking Order: A Thread
Mr Nasir ElRufai is a veritable example of what laser-sharp focus on infrastructural development can afford any society, can afford the rejuvenation of any economy.
Kaduna came from the squalid backwaters of underdevelopment to sparring it now, in the top league, with top tier cities like Lagos and Abuja. All on the sturdy backs of the astute and insightful vision of one single individual - Mr Nasir ElRufai - and his dexterous team. /02/
IGR of Kaduna growing from a measly N11billion pre 2015, to now hitting on the doors of N60billion. In the short span of 7 years. Unimaginable. Infrastructure investment is the ‘Holy Grail’. The only panacea, the one-cap-fits-all elixir for underdevelopment, anywhere. /03/
Done in Dubai, in Bahrain, in Qatar. Now done in Saudi Arabia, in Egypt, in Morocco, willfully rewriting the destinies of the peoples of those lands, now and forever. /04/
Nigeria, under President Buhari - even as encumbered by towering odds; an unreliable oscillation in global crude oil prices - came out bat swinging, ready to take up the gauntlet, ready to redirect its own course in a history checkered in more areas than not. /05/
From new airport terminals, four from last count, to new rail lines - complete with swanky first world train stations - snaking across the countrysides, opening up communities long forgotten behind intractable roads. /06/
To new expressways in every recess and aperture of the vast blessing called Nigeria. Infrastructural development is not only changing lives, it is birthing new economic opportunities for a multitude. And this is only just the beginning. /End/
