very frankly
and
very candidly,

Lala Koi obim,
Lala Koi obi m,
Lala Koi obi nm,

it remains my resolute view
on which i stand immovable
that



irrespective of
the volume(s) and quantae of discourse
since the 1950s ?
through the 1960s ?
and
through the 1970s ?
till date 2025

regarding the perception
that
NIGERIA could become a
WORLD POWER

and

irrespective of
the calibre
and
the quality
of folks that
have supported this perception
in the discourse



and
irrespective of
the high erudition or otherwise
and
the razor sharp intellect or otherwise
of the folks
that
have supported this perception
in the discourse



HISTORICALLY
and
CURRENTLY


folks should :

(1) be REALISTIC on this issue

(2) adopt
a
non-emotional,
non-sentimental
and
REASONABLE APPROACH
in regards to this issue


by this i mean
Lala Koi ohbee nm,
that

beyond GENERALISATIONS
and
beyond SUPERFICIAL COMMENTARY



folks should indicate
EXACTLY WHAT THEY MEAN by that
NIGERIA could become a WORLD POWER



for example,

Lala Koi nm, do they mean
that
NIGERIA could become a NUCLEAR POWER ?

and
why do they
presume? feel? guess? think?
that
NIGERIA could become a NUCLEAR POWER ?


or

Lala Koi nm, do they mean
that
NIGERIA could become a MILITARY POWER
worthy of note WORLD-WIDE
i.e to say
Lala Koi nm, do they mean
NIGERIA could become a MILITARY POWER
to be reckoned with GLOBALLY
and
respected GLOBALLY ?

and
why do they
presume? feel? guess? think?
that
NIGERIA could become a MILITARY POWER to be reckoned with GLOBALLY ?


or


Lala Koi nm,
do they mean
that

NIGERIA could become
a
WORLD LEADER in SCIENCE ?
ie
a
GLOBAL LEADER in SCIENCE ?
and
therefore
a
WORLD POWER in SCIENCE ?

and
why do they
presume ? feel ? guess ? think ?
that

NIGERIA could become
a
WORLD LEADER in SCIENCE ?
ie
a
GLOBAL LEADER in SCIENCE ?
and
therefore
a
WORLD POWER in SCIENCE ?



or


Lala Koi nm,
do they mean
that

NIGERIA could become
a
WORLD LEADER in TECHNOLOGY ?
ie
a
GLOBAL LEADER in TECHNOLOGY ?
and
therefore
a
WORLD POWER in TECHNOLOGY ?

and
why do they
presume ? feel ? guess ? think ?
that

NIGERIA could become
a
WORLD LEADER in TECHNOLOGY ?
ie
a
GLOBAL LEADER in TECHNOLOGY ?
and
therefore
a
WORLD POWER in TECHNOLOGY ?



or


Lala Koi nm,
do they mean
that

NIGERIA could become
a
WORLD LEADER in
SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY ?
ie
a
GLOBAL LEADER in
SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY ?
and
therefore
a
WORLD POWER in
SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY ?

and
why do they
presume ? feel ? guess ? think ?
that

NIGERIA could become
a
WORLD LEADER in
SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY ?
ie
a
GLOBAL LEADER in
SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY ?
and
therefore
a
WORLD POWER in
SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY ?



or


Lala Koi nm,
do they mean
that

NIGERIA could become
a
WORLD LEADER in MANUFACTURING ?
ie
a
GLOBAL LEADER in MANUFACTURING ?
and
therefore
a
WORLD POWER in MANUFACTURING ?

and
why do they
presume ? feel ? guess ? think ?
that

NIGERIA could become
a
WORLD LEADER in MANUFACTURING ?
ie
a
GLOBAL LEADER in MANUFACTURING ?
and
therefore
a
WORLD POWER in MANUFACTURING ?



or


Lala Koi nm,
do they mean
that

NIGERIA could become
a
WORLD POWER ECONOMICALLY ?
ie
a
GLOBAL POWER ECONOMICALLY ?
and
therefore
a
COUNTRY or NATION with a
NATIONAL ECONOMY
as
RESOURCEFUL ?
as
INTERNALLY DYNAMIC ?
as
EXTERNALLY DYNAMIC ?
as
PRODUCTIVE ?
as
INTERNALLY PRODUCTIVE ?
( ref : IGR i.e INTERNALLY GENERATED REVENUE, etc )
as
EXTERNALLY PRODUCTIVE ?
( ref : EGR i.e EXTERNALLY GENERATED REVENUE, if any, etc )

as that of

for example

the G-7 COUNTRIES
( i.e FRANCE, GERMANY, ITALY, UNITED KINGDOM, UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, CANADA, JAPAN ) ?

or

the BRICS COUNTRIES
( i.e RUSSIA, CHINA, BRAZIL, INDIA, REPUBLIC OF SOUTH AFRICA ) ?

and
why do they
presume ? feel ? guess ? think ?
that

NIGERIA could become
a
WORLD POWER ECONOMICALLY ?
ie
a
GLOBAL POWER ECONOMICALLY ?
and
therefore
a
COUNTRY or NATION with a
NATIONAL ECONOMY
as
RESOURCEFUL ?
as
INTERNALLY DYNAMIC ?
as
EXTERNALLY DYNAMIC ?
as
PRODUCTIVE ?
as
INTERNALLY PRODUCTIVE ( ref : IGR i.e INTERNALLY GENERATED REVENUE, etc )

or
the BRICS COUNTRIES ?
( i.e
RUSSIA, CHINA, INDIA, BRAZIL, REPUBLIC OF SOUTH AFRICA ) ?






Lala Koi ormahleechar nm,
Lala Koi omalicha nm,
if
what they mean
is

that

NIGERIA has been Blessed
over the years
with humanity that can understand
the concepts of

the
ARYAN STYLE OF EDUCATION

and
therefore
that

NIGERIA has produced
folks in various fields of learning
who have performed creditably
internationally ( .. when the opportunity presented .. )
and
nationally ( i.e within Nigeria )

then

that observation is agreed with.

however,
the circumstance that
a Country or a Nation
produces or produced
citizens with education in various fields of learning

DOES NOT

AUTOMATICALLY
or
NECESSARILY

TRANSLATE that Country
into BEING a WORLD POWER






Lala Koi omalicham,
Lala Koi omalicha m,
if
what they mean
is

that

NIGERIA has been Blessed
over the years
with Natural Resources
and Mineral Resources

like Oil and Gas
from which NIGERIA HAS EARNED HUGE INCOME OVER THE YEARS

then

that observation is agreed with.

however,
the circumstance that
a Country or a Nation
earns or has earned
huge income at any point in it’s existential history

DOES NOT

AUTOMATICALLY
or
NECESSARILY

TRANSLATE that Country
into BEING a WORLD POWER
