[1] For starters, Osun State is home to the historic Yoruba town of Ile-Ife, which should be turned into a tourist hub on the same scale as Ibiza. One does not need to be a rocket scientist to know that the Osun State government needs to invest massively in Ile-Ife’s infrastructure like hotels, trams, restaurants, hospitals, roads, nightclubs, swimming pools, etc

[1] Abians are arguably the most industrious people in Nigeria. Especially those our Abriba people and all the others from the old Bende District who have a monopoly on the clothing and footwear industry which they run from Aba
[2] To cash in on this, I think the Abia State government should fund the construction of 12 technical vocational training colleges across the state aimed at making it the new fashion capital of the world

[1] Known as the bread basket of the nation, Benue State arguably produces more food than any other state in the federation. It should be home to the world’s largest food processing plants with zero unemployment
[2] Do you know that Nigeria accounts for 70% of global yam production and Benue State is our major producer. Yam alone should fuel the economy of Benue State, with the state producing pounded yam, yam flour, yam meal, etc

[1] Rivers is not just any state in Nigeria. It is our fountain of wealth and ideally should be the bellwether of the Nigerian economy. There is no reason for it not to be competing with Lagos State when it comes to attracting foreign direct investment (FDI)
