Mr.Olakpade, you are welcome to the Programme.
1. Our President, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu is such a lovable, sociable, and easy going man who is not known to be a high headed person. Unfortunately,many Nigerians are groaning under his administration.
- what do you think is responsible ?.
- you mean the policies are meant to punish Nigerians?
- Is there anything he knows about the economy as the sitting President that he does not want to disclose to the generality of Nigerians?
2. Recently, the President inaugurated the PECC to rejuvenate and stabilize the economy in what look like a reform in the 4 major sectors of the economy, including : Energy, Agriculture,Health, and Fiscal policies.
Now, we will dwell on the Energy Sector in this episode .
- And,The question to ask now is:
- what is the President going to do differently in the Energy Sector which was not done before without a result?
- Has the President evaluated the enormous corruption, and has he developed a strong political will to confront the Cabal in the sector that has held Nigeria over the years?.
3. As it is today, Nigeria cannot say with certainty how much barrels of crude produced per day , and how much of it is stolen to various Countries abroad.
- What measures can the President put in place to ascertain this reality, and put a stop?
4 . In a Country where employment is based on sentiment and not intelligence and skills as we can find them in the Energy Sector.
- Can the President be strong enough to sanitize and get rid of those hoodlums, and bring in the relevant and incorruptable professionals in the Energy sector ?
