The Minister of Works, Arc. Mike Onolememen, has declared that the country is in the process of developing a National Integrated Infrastructure Master Plan (2014-2043).
.
According to him the move results from the fact that infrastructure stock in Nigeria today is far from being adequate which becomes even more evident when compared to countries such as Brazil, Turkey, India and South Africa.
.
Onolememmen said this recently in the United States of America at the occasion of the US Nigeria infrastructure conference tagged "Building the Infrastructure for Nigeria's vision 20:2020″.
.
In his keynote address, the minister said: "This conference underscores the importance the administration of President Goodluck Ebele Jonathan attaches to the development of infrastructure in Nigeria in pursuit of the nation's economic well being.
We just have to hope it all pan out well at the end of the day. Nigeria has every potential to develop if onlly they do the right thing.
Things just seem to always go wrong in this country all because of lack of preparation. That really has to change.
