| We need a vibrant private and public sector |

The east African common market is now a reality. Our leaders have set the right tone and direction. With over 130 million people in the region, EAC is just 20 million people shy of the entire Nigerian population. It is ironical, that with such population, our combined output is just a fraction of Nigeria, the second largest African nation, after South Africa. If EAC is to become the third richest region in Africa, we need a vibrant private and public sector as well. It’s all about having great leaders in all sectors. |
