Maersk, Ngelale and needless diatribes

For democracy to thrive, it is imperative that various elements including opposition political parties, civil societies, faith and community-based organisations, the media, and citizens play their respective roles as watchdog of government in every way, where possible.

I have never met Ngelale. He was a familiar face on television before his current brief in the Tinubu scheme. I speak in this instance as a politically unaffiliated journalist and a dispassionate Nigerian. To rehash the catchphrase of former President Muhammadu Buhari in his early days, “I belong to no political party, but I belong to every well-intentioned plan to get Nigeria working.

Findings from further research and empirical studies reveals that in February 2024 in the course of an exploratory visit to Nigeria’s Minister of Industry, Trade and Investment, Dr. Doris Uzoka-Anite, the A P. Maersk Terminal Chief Executive Officer, Keith Svendsen detailed the company’s $600m investment commitment to Nigeria’s economy.

Finally, rather than resort to cheap, mindless, and fruitless public ridicule as well as unnecessary debilitating politicisation of any, every intention and programme of government that will impact positively on the country and citizens, it is incumbent on “professional naysayers” to allow objectivity to prevail. In matters of development, banal reasoning, ethnic consideration, and tribal imputation should be subsumed under national interest and true nationhood.
