NIMASA Boss, Peterside Lists Factors for Nigeria’s BreakthroughBy Ignatius OkparaENUGU NIGERIA (AFRICAN EXAMINER) – The Director General (DG) of the Nigerian Maritime Administration and Safety Agency (NIMASA) Dr. Dakuku Peterside, has listed quality governance, anti-corruption, institutional integrity, sound education and economic policies as factors that can uplift any nation, including Nigeria to greatness.
Peterside, whose paper was entitled: “Building Blocks of a New Nigeria” also stressed that good governance remains a critical factor to the wholesome development of any nation, including Nigeria.
He said: “the principles of accountability, transparency, observance of the rule of law and basic freedom remained fundamental to any definition of good governance.
“But the ultimate determinant of good governance is the extent to which such government meets the basic needs of the greatest majority of its people.”He observed that corruption has remained a major clog in the evolution of an egalitarian society and a major inhibitor of good governance.
“This original haziness in what constitute the overriding national vision has constantly plagued our national development in nearly every sphere.
