“FG Won’t Rely on Foreign Donors To Revive Economy” – Minister

The minister of science and technology, Ogbonnaya Onu, has said the federal government will not rely on international agencies’ financial commitments to get the economy back on track.

Onu disclosed this on Monday after a World Bank delegation led by its Country Director for Nigeria, Mr Rachid Benmessaoud, paid him a working visit in his office in Abuja.

“We are not going to rely on any country or international agency to help develop our economy, this is something we as a people must do ourselves,” he said.

“For too long, Nigerians have been thinking that other nations and donor agencies will help the country develop its economy, but this has yet to take place.”

“We should rather take it as our responsibility, all the countries that have developed took it as their own responsibility to develop their economies themselves.”
