nments – to be economically viable.
Vice President Yemi Osinbajo, who appears to acknowledge the plight of sub-national governments, suggests that states can raise their IGRs by: strategic planning; taking advantage of their comparative advantage in agriculture; and encouraging entrepreneurships. Peter Omonua, a Nigerian, resident in Canada, who is probably sympathetic to the cause of the Indigenous People of Biafra separatist movement, observes that, “There is so much hunger in the people of the South collectively, to break forth and set the stage for the emancipation of and the Black race as a whole.”
The presidential Economic Advisory Council should interrogate Section 16 of the constitution, to review ownership and control of business enterprises that have been declared as major sectors of the economy. It would have been more appropriate if the intention of the United Arab Emirates investors to establish a 300-mega watts renewable energy generating plant in Lagos State was discussed with the state government, instead of the Federal Government.
Lagos State should further activate its electricity board that was established in 1980 “to establish in-state electric power stations; generate, transmit and distribute electricity to areas not covered by the national grid,” among other things.
