If we want to accumulate capital for investment in Nigeria, her well off citizens simply need to live frugal lifestyles over the next 61 years


Ayo Akinfe 

[1] Stop purchasing what we do not produce 
[2] Stop the health tourism 
[3] Stop sending your kids to school abroad 
[4] Cut out the religious pilgrimages 
[5] Reduce foreign trips to business ones 
[6] Holiday within Nigeria
[7] Reduce the owambes to the bare minimum and invest that money in cooperative societies 
[8] Convert two thirds of Nigeria’s churches and mosques into factories 
[9] Ban the use of generators. Any lazy community that cannot generate clean energy should live in darkness 
[10] Stop all these expensive installations of kings, obas, chiefs, Igwes, emirs, obis, galadimas, etc. Invest that capital on production lines 

Basically, we need to subordinate consumption to accumulation!
