FG, state govts building flyovers to nowhere while people starve – Pat Utomi laments
Professor Pat Utomi, a former presidential candidate, criticized the Nigerian government for prioritizing superficial projects like building flyovers while neglecting the basic needs of the people. Utomi emphasized the need for rational planning over sentimental thinking to address the country's challenges.
He highlighted the disconnect between the government's focus on infrastructure projects and the widespread poverty and deprivation experienced by many Nigerians. Utomi lamented that while flyovers are being constructed, people are starving, illustrating a lack of priorities.
He urged for a shift towards more practical and impactful initiatives to improve the lives of the citizens. Utomi's comments underscored the importance of addressing the root issues facing Nigeria rather than investing in projects that do not address the fundamental needs of the population.
