The duty of the government is to establish an atmosphere for people to come and establish industries. It is the only institution that can absorb people and give them employment. That is why a country like China is progressing rapidly. These were the words of the Managing Director of Alibert furniture, Chief Maged Taan, a Lebanese.

According to Maged Taan, industrialization is the key factor to a country's development, but here in Nigeria, the government does not care, and there is no atmosphere of industrialisation in this country.

“I have gained. I cannot deny that. But the beggars in the street make money. But if I worked so hard and suffered so hard anywhere else in the world, I would have made more gain.”

The furniture boss also pointed out that the system has gotten so bad that foreign investors only come to Nigeria for a short term investment and they leave telling you that the country cannot be predicted.

If you land at the airport in Abuja and tell a taxi man to take you to Ministry of Finance, or NNPC, the taxi man will welcome you very well and drive you straight to those places. But tell the same taxi man that you want to go to the Ministry of Industry, the man will ask you 'where is the place?' You tell him to take you to the Ministry of Agriculture, he doesn't know the place. He takes people to the Ministry of Finance and NNPC because that is where they go to 'chop' money.

Maged Taan, who has been in Nigeria for 41 years now, added that he is not even making money the way the Synagogue church of all Nations is making.

“I remember when the Synagogue (church) came to open here, anybody asking for direction would be told that the church is next door to Alibert. The pastor is making more money than I am making. It is obvious that when you establish a church, you make more money than when you establish an industry. When I came here, the population was less than 100. But now, we have over one million people here."
