  • Nigeria has found herself in a predictable economic vortex, no thanks to the upending of the viable federal structure and enthronement of “feeding bottle federalism” lubricated by free oil money that has progressively drained post-First Republic leaders of the vision and creativity of their forebears.

In fact, it was rated as the world’s fastest growing and industrialising economy between 1954 and 1964. Thanks to the visionary leadership of Okpara, which was driven by his principle of “Pragmatic Socialism.”

  • From one end to the other, the region experienced massive industrial and agricultural revolution: Michelin Factory in Port Harcourt; Nigergas Company, Asbestos Cement Factory, and Niger Steel Company in Emene, Enugu; glass factory in Port Harcourt; Presidential Hotel in Port Harcourt and Enugu; Golden Guinea Breweries in Umuahia; shoe factory in Owerri; Calabar Cement Company and textile industries in the region, just to name a few. Whether it was oil palm or cocoa, rubber, banana, cassava, and pineapple, poultry and animal husbandry industry, the region was busting at the seams, producing for both local consumption and export.
