Anambra State Governor, Chukwuma Soludo, speaking at APGA NEC meeting after his appointment as the party's national leaderSome politicians have taken to pledging to reshape their states into some version of Dubai or Singapore. It’s, of course, a farcical goal. For one, mimicry is hardly ever impressive, being the domain of people deficient in imagination. There’s also a dollop of delusion at play.

These mimic men – to use a term popularised by the late VS Naipaul – fail to grasp that real development is not a game of isolated spectacles. It is not about dazzling gullible folks with the fresh-painted carcass of a convention centre that ends up being seldom used.
