Professor Pat Utomi, a renowned political-economist says the Nigerian political class lack vision, hence the prevalent economic depression in the country.
Utoim on Wednesday, also said Nigeria has a ‘lazy political class’ while stressing that the developmental policy standard of Nigeria is deeply impaired.
Speaking at the second ‘SMC-NRGI media conference series 2016’ – Utomi said the government was more responsible for the problems bedeviling the country’s economy than for actual solutions that will bring about development.
“We have a lazy political class that is not visionary enough to see the need to reposition the country in the right policies that will shore up growth and stability in our economy without the sense of playing selfish.”
“The play in this is such that corruption has created a custom of people with money without the thought or foresight to create jobs for its citizens.”
“The government is more responsible for aborting progress than enhancing development for her country.”
