🇳🇬

Femi Okutubo, Editor-in-Chief of THE TRUMPET, the leading Nigerian diaspora newspaper in the UK has responded to Priti Patel, former secretary of state for International Development in the United Kingdom(UK)

#Threads
Earlier this week in an op-ed for City A.M., Patel had called on investors to be wary about investing in Nigeria.

*FEMI OKUTUBU’s LETTER IS REPRODUCED BELOW*

As a Nigerian living in the UK, who has experienced first-hand the contrast between the Buhari administration
And those of his predecessors, I read with great interest Priti Patel’s article about investment in Nigeria. Frankly, I cannot help but question whether she has taken the time to examine the facts behind the allegations she puts her name to.

The institution of @LtGovDelhi is compromised politically. Cruel and anti-democratic steps regressing Delhi's growth are the norm. Here are 100 reasons why @ArvindKejriwal, @msisodia, @AapKaGopalRai and @SatyendarJain are fasting and fighting for Delhi.

Read, RT and Share. /1
Delhi Government instituted Higher Education Guarantee Scheme, fulfilling its promise to secure a child's education with a government-guaranteed loan of Rs. 10 lakhs, to helping children from disadvantaged backgrounds.

It was stalled for 402 days by LG.

This is criminal. /2
Delhi Government requested the LG for 1 DANICS officer per education district to help with DoE's renewed focus of monitoring and regulation of private schools.

Silence for 6 months!

@msisodia fights for Delhi's parents.

@LtGovDelhi bats for BJP's usurious private schools. /3

One way to analyse #Budget2018 is to not look at in isolation but as a stunningly well planned sequencing of moves, beginning from 2014 budget and culminating in this, the 5th and last full budget of Modi Government. #NewIndiaBudget 1/10
This sequencing, in respect of moves through budget, can be broadly classified into what has been done on the following fronts A) Aspirational Class ; B) Farmers; C) Women; D) Youth; E) Jobs and F) Overall macro economy. #NewIndiaBudget 2/10
A) Aspirational Class: Ensure every family has bank account---->Direct Transfer of Benefits & Subsidies--->Basic life & accidental insurance--->Enable Formal credit without collateral---->Raise standard of living---->Ensure Medical Insurance for whole family. #NewIndiaBudget 3/10
