Nigeria now burial ground of policies — Obasanjo

Former President Olusegun Obasanjo has lamented the state of the country, noting that Nigeria has become a “burial ground of policies.”

According to the former leader, the nation’s growth and development have been hampered by numerous unimplemented policies.

Obasanjo said on Saturday: “It is not enough for leaders to have policies or make statements. We are not short of policies in Nigeria. Unfortunately, Nigeria has become a burial ground of policies that are either unimplemented or unexecuted.

“Those who make progress achieved progress, not based on wishing to make progress, but on taking actions. They do not take two steps forward and three steps backward.
