Nigeria, a country blessed with so much in natural resources yet suffering from "resource curse" . Our economy has crumbled before our eyes and we have become largely dependent on importing products which ordinarily we should export and have abundant domestic supply to boost out local industries and in turn, our economic strength.

Steel has proven to be an economic power to any country that has the industry developed. America has its steel industry as a dominant factor in its raise as a world power. In Russia today, its the strength of their steel industries that help the nation weather against the onslaught of Western sanctions.

With the advent of a new government under President Muhammadu Buhari, we, the good citizens of Nigeria, tender our plea to the President and his wise team to kindly make, as part of the Federal Government's desire to diversify from an oil-dependent economy to mining amongst others, the revival of the Ajaokuta Steel Company a priority. On completion, it poses to be the largest integrated steel complex in the Sub-Saharan Africa and shall well usher Nigeria into vision 2020.

Nigerians care because a functioning Ajaokuta Steel Company shall be the backbone for economic diversification and bedrock for industrialization. Its revival would stimulate several other industries for production of building and construction components, agricultural and industrial tools, domestic and industrial appliances, automobiles, weapons and so much for domestic use and export.

This singular industry poses to provide employment for millions of Nigerians - local crafts men,  professionals of all fields, genders, disabled, at home and diaspora... everyone!!!

Please our dear President, make the revival of Ajaokuta Steel Company an utmost priority so that we all can collectively rebuild Nigeria for our children;  regain its economic strength and become a world industrial giant.
