Encourage state-level and private mini-grids, solar, and gas-to-power.

Investors will not build power plants if rules keep changing.

Cheap, reliable power is the foundation for industry, tech hubs, cold storage, and manufacturing—that’s where jobs come from.

Agriculture and agro-industry farming—that’s huge.

Irrigation and storage, not just fertilizer handouts.

Build dams, canals, and storage/processing centers so farmers don’t lose harvests. boko haram root cause must be tackled now for farming/agriculture to be possible to make Nigeria food sufficient we reject handouts of rice/beans

Rural roads and security.

Subsidized public internet in schools, markets, and community centers.
