IT would seem that the country is at the cross roads on the crucial priorities that the country ought to take to address its current financial, social and developmental issues and redirect its current course to focus more on creating a sustainable and conducive environment that will lift it out of its current poor state of economic management.

It calls for people with the credentials and proven track records of re-structuring successful rescuing economic packages, be it a private company or an institution.

As the saying goes, Rome was not built in a day, so we should not be too hasty to copy other world economies at the expense of shackling the country with unmanageable bank loans and regressive development.
We just hope that people have chosen wisely, sensibly and correctly for the sake of the present generation and that of their children and grandchildren.
