Frank Ukonga Lecture 102: Rising Debt Profile of Nigerian States and Sub-Saharan Countries-Deficit Budgeting, Debt Servicing, Insolvency and Impact on Service Delivery; Comparatives with the Kigali [Rwanda] Experience: An Empirical Appraisal.



Prince Frank Ukonga Lecture 102: The Rising Debt Profile of the Nigerian States, insolvency and impact on service delivery; Comparative with the Kigali [Rwanda] Experience; an empirical Appraisal
Frank Ukonga Lecture 102: Rising Debt Profile of Nigerian States and Sub-Saharan Countries-Deficit Budgeting, Debt Servicing, Insolvency and Impact on Service Delivery; Comparatives with the Kigali [Rwanda] Experience: An Empirical Appraisal.
The Debt Profile of many of the 36 states of Nigeria and other countries in Sub Saharan Africa is steadily increasing and put at 40% average of the Debt /GDP ratio and would soon hit the critical stage of 50% and above if something is not done urgently to arrest this ugly scenario of the previous century of the ’80s and ’90s from returning back.  That was when Nigeria and the bulk of Africa Countries and the third world were wallowing in debt burden, illiquidity, and insolvency. As history repeats itself we must be proactive to stem the same ugly scenario from repeating itself.
The classical Maxim of cutting one’s coat according to the cloth available is fast evaporating being replaced by lofty budgeting addressed to do more than the available resources can cater for, whence to cover the deficit the States goes a borrowing accruing huge debt for the next Governor and the citizens of the state to service and solvent.
Debt Profiles of Some of the States: Currently the debt profile of some of the States are such that the IGR plus the statutory allocations can only offset 25% on the average of the huge debts of both domestic and external debt portfolios.
Recurrent Expenditure Vs Capital Expenditure: The cost of running a government which comes under recurrent expenditure appears higher in Nigeria and Sub Saharan Africa than the international standard practice of 25% of GDP and below. 

Functional perspectives to Success in governance; a comparative with Rwanda’s Experience:
1] The retinue of Advisers and other hanger-on employed by Governors to compensate political associates for their loyalty and ghost workers should be perused critically with a view to downsize and bring down the cost of personnel involved in service delivery. As such borrowing to implement capital projects and investments which would yield Returns On Investments [ROI], Create Jobs and raise the IGR should be the main objectives for borrowing and not borrowing to pay consumptive recurrent expenditures as this would conform to classical Keynesian economic theory.
2] ICT Vs Clerical Jobs of Ministries: It is time State governments begin to employ the postmodern technological innovations of ICT to run the Ministries. This would help to run the government effectively and efficiently, cut down wastes and the aspects of the human factor in quality service delivery and would also downsize the Ministerial appointments and staff which would impact positively in pruning down the cost of running governments.
3] Corruption: Governors should do more to check corruption in their governments. The introduction of ICT could help in these aspects.
4] Infrastructural Development Vs Maintenance Culture:  Governors are advised to seek new strategies in the construction of Roads, Bridges, Hospitals, etc with the hindsight of possibly direct labour methodology and if they must engage contractors the policy of adequate use of local content input must be in place. Maintenance culture of repairing roads that are in default due to some failure of some parts of the roads so that it can be motorable rather than wait until it is completely bad and then issue contracts to contractors for the reconstruction of the entire road and other amenities. Governors should step up maintenance culture on infrastructures to stem infrastructural decay. This would ameliorate the weight of Capital Expenditures
5] Lifestyles and Social Spending: Governors are advised to be cautious of spending on personal lifestyles, Commissioners, advisers, domestics and social spending addressed to prune down the cost of running the government.
6]Foreign Direct Investments [FDI]: Governors are advised to beef up the investment portfolios in their respective states by an aggressive pursuit of Foreign Direct Investments and to put in place juicy conditions and packages to attract investors to their states. This certainly would boost the IGR, create jobs and wealth.
7] Pro-Active Security Initiatives: Governors are the chief Security officers of their states, so they should do more to guarantee the safety of persons and properties by supporting the Police and other security agencies. This would attract trade and investments to their states.
8] Creating an Atmosphere for business and investment to thrive: Governors should Endeavour to create an atmosphere for businesses and investments to thrive in their respective states by providing basic infrastructures of good roads, hospitals, recreation centers, and other support services.
9] Aids, Grants, and Collaboration with Donor Agencies and Investors: The earnings of a state can be greatly augmented through Aids, Grants and collaborative initiatives with donor agencies and investors. These efforts would ameliorate the stress on Recurrent Expenditures and Social spending and impact positively on Capital Expenditures from the Schumpeterian perspective.
10] Support for Small and Medium Scale Industries and mobilization of the people of the state; most advanced economies of the world made it through support for small and medium scale industries that dots their towns and cities in millions. Support for these groups of investors is a sure path to the prosperity of the states. It would create millions of jobs, contribute to the IGR and create wealth. Whence, numerous industrial incubator initiatives should be created in all the Local Govt Areas of the state. The people of the State should also be mobilized for Agricultural, economic and industrial revolution by campaigns and sensitization.

The Kigali [Rwanda] Experience in modern governance and quality service delivery; a Comparative:
A close study of Rwanda’s Experience and successes in modern governance and quality service delivery to the electorate that has earned Rwanda the nickname of the Singapore of the African Continent as an Emerging Economic Tiger of Africa revealed that the leaders of Rwanda employed these ten aforementioned points effectively.
Rwanda is a landlocked agrarian Country in East Africa with little or no important mineral resources but rich in Casiterites, coltan, and tin ore. Their main preoccupation is Agriculture specializing in growing coffee and tea for exports.
Rwanda’s Economic, Industrial and Agricultural Revolution: the Comparatives: Rwanda has a landmass of 24,000 sq km just about the size of Edo State 18,000 sq km and a population of 12 million people. With a GNP of $16 billion dollars and Edo state GNP is $14 billion with a population of 7,5 million peoples by current 2019 estimates. Rwanda has a debt portfolio of $3.5 billion Dollars which are 35% of GDP considered portable. Whence Edo State and Rwanda are almost on the same platform in the context of size, GNP and other aspects but Edo state has more commercial resources than Rwanda which includes limestone, gold, Petroleum etc  and more than 20 states of Nigeria are bigger than Rwanda in landmass, more endowed in the context of mineral and human resources. So what were the secrets of Rwanda’s Successes which the Nigerian States can borrow from?
The secret of Rwanda’s successes is the dedication of their leaders, the focus of their leaders, and the successful mobilization of the people, most especially the youth to come out and contribute to the development of the Country. This is the backbone of the successes of Rwanda.
Next is the prudent management of the human and natural resources with the successful application of the ten aforementioned points.
Conclusion: If Rwanda can make it to the top as the Singapore of Africa by the applications of the aforementioned ten points any Nigerian State can also make it big by applying these points to governance.
Furthermore, the Federal Government and the Senate are advised to review the constitutional provision on devolution of powers to the states in the context of resource control and statutory allocations.
If all these are in place we should be able to see some states of Nigeria becoming the Singapore, Malaysia, and Dubai of Africa within the next few years.

FRANK UKONGA LECTURE 14: AFRICAN YOUTH DAY: THE IMPERATIVES OF YOUTH DEVELOPMENT TO THE ADVANCEMENT OF DEMOCRACIES: A GLOBAL PERSPECTIVE- BY PRINCE FRANK UKONGA- PRESIDENTIAL ASPIRANT OF THE NIGERIAN FEDERATION. LECTURE, DELIVERED TO THE AFRICAN YOUTH CONGRESS, TO MARK WORLD YOUTH DAY IN NIGERIA, BENIN CITY ON THE 1st November 2012
TOPIC: – THE IMPERATIVES OF YOUTH DEVELOPMENT TO THE ADVANCEMENT OF DEMOCRACIES: A GLOBAL PERSPECTIVE-
Fellow compatriots,
I acknowledge the presence of the Chairman of this occasion, important dignitaries and the large presence of youth from across Nigeria in attendance and all protocols observed.
I thank the organizers of this event for inviting me in the capacity of Special Guest of Honor, a position usually reserved for Governors, Presidents and highly achieving personalities of the world and this translates to your endorsement of my Presidential ambition of the Nigerian Federation in the 2015 polls as your gesture have yoked me among the sages. I also express my sincere gratitude for your endorsement and votes in the just concluded Edo Governorship election when I contested alongside with H.E. Comrade Adams Oshiomhole, General Charles Airhiavbere of PDP, Chief Solomon Edebiri of ANPP and other gladiators. I am highly elated and would continue to cherish this great respect and opportunities until the end of time.
I must quickly commend the organizers of this youth retreat and more so that it is coming from the Edo state of the Mid West Region that has a large population of hard-working youth cadre that is unfortunately marginalized in the schemes of things of the Nigerian federalism as in States and Local Government creation. This Edo Youth retreat, also adds strength to the just-concluded Youth and sports development Retreat of President Goodluck Jonathan as well as the South African Youth Retreat organized two weeks ago by the former President of South Africa H.E. Tambo Mbeki. These great leaders of Africa, including my honorable self share similar streams of consciousness about the imperatives of youth development to the advancements of African economies and democracies.
I congratulate the entire youth of Nigeria and Africa at the occasion of the African youth Day as I acknowledge your immense contributions to the liberation of the African continent from the tripartite anti Bellum phenomenology of slavery, colonization, and imperialism and though a lot has been done in this regards to free Africa from various debaucheries, but it is time for another emergence of youth vanguard to further strengthen the struggles against emerging threats to all and sundry of the African Race and inadvertently the global village.
These new emerging threats that threaten all of us in contemporary times are many and camouflage in various garbs and if not checked could be the remote causality of the failure and fatigues of the genuine democratic culture of the African continent and perhaps threaten the growth of democracies on a global perspective.
Prominent  among these new problems and perhaps most important is the question of restive youth in Nigeria and across the entire globe caused by youth frustrations as in the aspects of redundancies of joblessness, terrorism, kidnappings, high crimes, prostitution, Aids / HIV pandemic, racism/ tribalism, hunger, homelessness, environmental degradation and climatic catastrophes to mention but a few.
The imperatives of youth development in strengthening emerging democracies of the world cannot be over-emphasized as the youth constitute the majority of the voting demography in Africa and perhaps the entire world. Whence, it is mandatory to focus on positive youth development if Africa and the world must jockey towards sustainable vibrant democratic dispensations.

Positive youth education and empowerment is the panacea to most of these problems which will translate to meaning that more emphasis has to be placed on qualitative education and perhaps to focus attention on a new paradigm shift in our educational systems to practical technical education as advised by the great Black intelligentsia of the African American genre, Booker .T Washington who noted that positive technical education to the peoples of the Black Race on a global basis will tremendously encourage enterprise in the field of self-employment via small and medium scale industries and would generate the spirit of enterprise germane to the greatness of Africans on a global basis. Perhaps at this juncture, we need to revisit these great dissertations of the great African American sage. Basorum MKO Abiola, Chief Obafemi Awolowo, Malam Aminu Kano, Dr Namdi Azikiwe, Chief Gabriel Onaivi Ukonga ( Father of Prince Frank Onaivi Ukonga),Chief Antony Enahoro, Chief Olu Falae – Chairman SDMP all support free and qualitative education at all levels to the entire citizens of the world- they are the best Social Democrats Africa ever had.
The leadership of the African continent and all other emerging democracies of the world has to focus  more attention on prudent management of human and economic resources of their various Nations addressed towards job creation, support for small and medium scale industries as well as youth and women empowerment through the provision of technical training centers of artesian and encouragements of graduates via provision of seed capital/ start-up capital ; this initiative will ameliorate the current scarcity of jobs on a global basis.
Still, on the leadership question, the aspect of corruption and looting of public and private treasuries of many African countries as well as many emerging democracies of the world has to be checked. This will translate to putting in place various security networks, due process, accountability including international cooperation with other security agencies of the world to help track looted money from these democracies and expose corrupt leaders. The transparency international and other security agencies of the advanced world are doing quite well in tracking cases of money laundering by African leaders and their surrogates but more is required if these frail African democracies are to survive into the 22 century.
In many African countries funds that are meant to train the youth as great leaders of tomorrow are looted away by the leaders. More so funds to create enabling environment for business and enterprise to thrive that will create jobs and improve the overall economy via accelerated infrastructural development are all looted away. Whence African democracies groan under poor electricity generation and distributions, bad roads and highways, poor hospitals and health programs, unsafe airports and colonial backward rail systems and poor aviation infrastructures, poor educational facilities as in some parts of Nigeria for example we have about 10 million Almanjiris youth and children roaming the streets of Nigeria without education( this was remarked by the former Head of State of Nigeria H.E. General Abdulsalami Abubakar) while he also canvassed for a proactive service delivery policy thrust, by the various states and federal governments to the electorate which in fact is below average in international standard practice. H.E. Tambo Mbeki former President of South Africa also chided the leadership of South Africa last week when he was delivering a lecture to commemorate the birthday of the great African sage Oliver Tambo about the new trend  in the leadership of African states and in particular South Africa which he claimed is drifting in to a visionless milieu and this is the case of leadership across the entire African countries when view from a wider perspective of the Tambo Mbeki’s streams of consciousness.

The President of the United States of America H.E. Barack Obama while unveiling new Strategic Partnership plans for sub-Saharan Africa in June 2012 noticed that the teaming population of African youth is a great strength to the development of vibrant economic and democratic institutions in Africa if well harnessed. but he noticed that Africa is bogged down by some set of leadership cabals that insists on looting African treasuries, rigging elections, causing confusions , redundancies and other problems that endangers Africa’s economic and democratic prosperities  and warned that the United States will not fold its arms and allow any sort of irredentists to ruin the potentials of the African continent, that if well harnessed will be the next economic world power of tomorrow. President Obama is rightly guided and a great friend of the African youth. I agree completely with his candid observations.
It is pertinent to mention quickly that the new trend of the corporate greed of Multinational companies on a global scale is also partly responsible for this global recession causing joblessness, redundancies, and hardship to all and sundry.
At this juncture, it is important to advise the African youths to take the bull by its horns by looking away from the various emerging idiosyncrasies of the African continent and embrace the spirit of hard work and enterprise. Which will translate to invigorating research and development, research and innovations in self-employment, rather than fold hands and be waiting for jobs that are not just available? Some university graduates have been writing applications for the past 10 years after graduation without employment. In one certain advert to employ only 20 people about 12,000 youth showed up in Nigeria. If these set of youth has been adequately industrious they would have noticed this anomaly and stop looking for jobs but invent new ways to get themselves employed through small and medium scale concepts that will employ others. The world's richest man today is bill Gates he has never written an application in his life, he had an idea of making computer soft wares and he pursued the establishment of that concept that is helping the entire human race today.
Same with the late Steve Jobs, Aliko Dangote never wrote an application in his life yet he is perhaps the richest African today employing millions of peoples across the entire world with his ideas and Great Spirit of enterprise, same with Femi Otedola and many others. I have never written an application in my life to work for somebody else, though I have been offered jobs from far and near but I always turned them down aside from consultations and advisory capacities, as I am cognizance that the best thing you can ever do to get up is to have a maximum use of your time and use it judiciously in empowering yourself and that is what is recommended in the books of – The Richest Man in Babylon and -How to Think and Grow Rich by Norman Vincent Pearce. I hope you all will embrace my candid observations and continue to promote the spirit of enterprise via positive technical education and self-employment initiatives and actions.
This my recommendation of self-employment initiatives and actions is a sure way to grow out of the poverty and redundancy trap in Nigeria and Africa, This will grow you to become more financially stable, experienced and confident as a self-made person and you will become less vulnerable and nobody can hire you as a thug to do diabolical evils  as in election rigging, suicide bombing, male and female prostitution, stealing, kidnapping, armed robbery, etc.
I must also caution the African youth about the company you keep. Keep away from bad friends and people of shady characters and in fact, report them to the police if you can. If you move with a bad friend, he/ she will eventually drag you into the evil club and their ways. I will also use this opportunity to advise the parent to pay more attention to the upbringing of their children and youth making sure they bring them up as positive great citizens of Nigeria and Africa.
I will advise the Nigerian and African youth to cultivate Godly virtues. To respect and fear God and to relate with one another in the philosophy of St Augustine who noted the imperatives of mankind on earth as addressed to be at peace with God and at concord with fellow mankind. These constitute the very kernel of the golden rules of creation in esoteric knowledge as to do onto others what you will like others to do unto you. This is very necessary for the establishment of democratic cultures the world over. The youth should abhor junk culture order and cultivate sound ethical behavioral standards of the African superlative aesthetics.
I will also advise the Nigeria youth to be cautious of sex. The AID/ HIV diseases are real and it is killing a large population of Nigeria and African youth workforce. In some African countries, up to 35% of the youth are AIDS/ HIV positive and this means AIDS/ HIV has the potential to wipe out an entire generation of youth of Nations who pay lip service to the problems of casual sex. The best way to avoid AIDS/ HIV is through sexual abstinence or if you must have sex then use a condom as the recommended practice of safe sex. Youth must be a life and health to be able to contribute to the development of economic and democratic institutions in Africa and the world at large. I am also advising parents and schools to give positive sex education to the youths.
Though it is imperative to cognize that positive qualitative education and provision of jobs for the larger peoples of the society is the duty of the government through various schemes and policy thrust/budgeting that generates production and employment and that is what we offer at  SDMP- Social Democratic Mega Party which is the truly youth friendly progressive party in Nigeria and Africa. Our manifesto offer Nigerians free and qualitative education at all levels, Jobs for all, industrial and agricultural revolution, etc. And I am calling on the entire youth of Nigeria and Africa in generality to support SDMP in coming to power in their various states and local governments as well as in the Federal Government addressed to create job opportunities, strong economies, vibrant democracies in Nigeria and Africa. The long live Federal Republic of Nigeria, Long live Africa.

Breaking News: INEC Quarterly Stakeholders Summit: INEC Chair Prof Mahmood Yakubu, Peter Ameh-IPAC President in Council, Frank Ukonga -National Chairman DA Democratic Alternative Party and others storms INEC Quarterly Consultative Summit.

 The INEC Quarterly consultative summit was held in Abuja at the Electoral Institute to discuss urgent matters of Kogi and Bayelsa States Governorship elections and other important matters addressed to consolidate the Nigerian nascent Democracy.
Delibrations on the security challenges during the Kogi and Bayelsa elections were discussed and panacea was evolved to have free, fair and credible elections.
The issue of vote-buying and selling were trashed out and means to stem these undemocratic practices were evolved.
The Kogi West Senatorial Rerun elections and timetable to be held the same day with the Kogi gubernatorial polls were discussed and agreed upon.
The issue of Party de registration was trashed out and all agreed that to sustain multi-party democracy Political parties need be encouraged and supported by grants and as organic phenomenon be allowed to grow and mature up to begin to win rather than kill then at infancy, which is the natural sequence of nature and creation.
Whence all major stakeholders say no to Party Deregistration.
