FG Urges Nigerians Abroad to Bring Investments Home, But Are the Right Conditions in Place?

The Federal Government, through the Nigerians in Diaspora Commission (NIDCOM), represented by Abike Dabiri-Erewa, has once again called on Nigerians abroad to invest back home. They emphasize that remittances and capital inflows are key to the nation’s economic growth.
While this call isn’t new, the reality is that many Nigerians living abroad hesitate to invest. This hesitation is not due to a lack of patriotism, but rather the fundamental issues that make the business environment unsafe and unattractive. The government’s appeal should be considered alongside the real barriers that discourage investment.

The Missing Piece in Government’s Appeal
No investor needs to be persuaded if the environment is right. Capital naturally moves to where it is safe, productive, and profitable. The government should focus on creating a stable, secure, and supportive environment that attracts investments without needing constant appeals.
Only when issues like insecurity, infrastructure, healthcare, and governance are properly tackled will Nigeria shift from being a nation pleading for investments to one where investors seek out opportunities.

Key Factors Discouraging Investments in Nigeria:
• Insecurity:
From terrorism and banditry to kidnappings and violent crime, insecurity is the biggest threat to business confidence. Investors, both foreign and Nigerians abroad, worry about the safety of their capital, employees, and often their families.
• Poor Infrastructure:
Businesses cannot thrive without reliable electricity, good roads, rail systems, ports, and internet access. Chronic power outages, impassable roads, and transport issues increase the cost of doing business. Investors naturally avoid areas where logistics and production are too costly.
• Weak Healthcare and Education Systems:
Skilled labor relies on strong health and education systems. Unfortunately, poor medical facilities, the departure of health professionals, and underfunded schools discourage skilled Nigerians abroad from moving back or investing. They understand that during emergencies, the system often fails.
• Policy Inconsistency and Corruption:
Sudden changes in government policy, high taxes, bureaucratic challenges, and widespread corruption make long-term planning difficult. Investors fear their businesses could fail overnight due to arbitrary government actions or extortion.
• Judicial and Regulatory Weaknesses:
Investors want the assurance that contracts will be enforced fairly and disputes resolved quickly. Nigeria’s slow and often compromised legal system creates uncertainty, leaving many investors doubtful about the protection of their assets.
• Macroeconomic Instability:
High inflation, unstable exchange rates, and declining purchasing power continue to undermine confidence. Without a predictable and stable economy, investors are hesitant to commit their funds.

Safety or Selective Standards? BA Offloads 58 Nigerians Over ‘Faulty’ Door

No one can say for sure when the fault appeared. Did the problem show up overnight? Was it managed during the flight to Nigeria? Or did Nigeria’s NCAA inspectors find it before departure? What matters is that the fault was found, and action was taken.

Now, imagine the roles reversed. If Air Peace had a faulty aircraft door at Heathrow, would UK authorities have let it fly after just blocking off seats? The likely answer is a strong NO. British regulators are strict about passenger safety, and they wouldn’t hesitate to ground the flight completely.

Yet on August 15, 2025, British Airways’ flight BA052 from Abuja to London left only after 58 passengers were turned away and seats near the broken door were left empty. This caused a significant inconvenience for the airline, but it also sent a strong message: safety comes before profit.

This raises an uncomfortable question for Nigeria’s aviation industry: would we act the same way? If a similar fault was found on a domestic airline, would NCAA and the airline choose to give up revenue to protect lives? Or would they fall into the familiar pattern of trying to manage the situation to avoid financial loss, treating safety as optional?

The lesson is clear. Losing 58 passengers and the revenue they bring is nothing compared to the cost of a single aviation disaster. Safety margins exist for a reason; they are the narrow line between normal operations and tragedy.

This situation has sparked discussion online, with Nigerians urging NCAA to enforce the same standards on foreign airlines that they expect from local ones. They are right. Safety standards must be the same, whether the airplane has the logo of British Airways or Air Peace.

The bottom line is this: aviation safety should never be a bargaining chip. If British Airways can prioritize safety over profit, Nigeria’s domestic airlines and regulators must show they can do the same. Anything less is risking lives.

At Death, We All Become Catholics
By Chinedu Duru

There is a curious unity that emerges in the face of death. Whether Protestant, Orthodox, Muslim, agnostic, or otherwise—at the passing of a loved one, we instinctively turn to language soaked in mercy, hope, and intercession. “May God have mercy on his soul.” “May she rest in peace.” “May the Lord forgive his sins.” These are not just sentimental gestures; they are theological affirmations, often unspoken, but deeply revealing.

Ironically, such prayers echo a profoundly Catholic instinct—the belief that divine mercy may still be operative beyond the grave, that the soul’s journey is not yet complete, and that the living can, through prayer, participate in that mystery. This is, in essence, what the doctrine of purgatory affirms.

Yet, the mere mention of purgatory in many circles often elicits confusion, mockery, or outright rejection. It’s caricatured as a medieval invention, an ecclesiastical loophole, or a tool of guilt. But is it possible that purgatory is far more familiar—and far more human—than we care to admit?

Consider this: If you have ever prayed for the dead, even for a moment, you are acknowledging a profound truth—that death is not always the end of the story, and that God’s mercy is not constrained by time. You are, knowingly or not, a purgatorian.
Purgatory is not a cosmic waiting room, nor a punishment for the semi-damned. It is, rather, the logical and merciful extension of God’s justice and love—a place (or process) where the soul, still imperfectly conformed to divine love, is purified in the light of grace. It is hope for the imperfectly repentant, not condemnation.

In a culture increasingly allergic to absolutes, we still cling to the language of divine mercy at the hour of death. We pray. We hope. We speak of peace. We appeal, not to karma or nothingness, but to grace. And in doing so, we affirm something deeply Catholic: that God's mercy stretches even into the mystery of death, and that the communion of saints—living and departed—is not a poetic abstraction, but a living reality.

So the next time you say, “May he rest in peace,” remember what you are really saying: that God is not yet finished with us, even in death. That love endures beyond the grave. And that—Catholic or not—we are all, in the end, children of mercy.
