Nigeria yet to Practise Omoluabi social democracy — Prince Faloye

“To advance Awolowo’s social democratic economic welfarist template, especially the last two of integrated rural development and full employment, there should be a need for railway stations and a policy of a roof over every head.

It actually resonates with Yorubas and other indigenous African civilizational economic ideologies, placing Afenifere as those who want abundance for all, just like East African Ubuntu meaning, ‘I am because we are,’” He further stated that Awolowo’s social democratic principles organized agriculture and built industrial estates for the food, beverages, and tobacco manufacturing subsector, which still accounts for 70 percent of Nigeria’s manufacturing income.“Chief Obafemi Awolowo had advocated social democracy and economic welfarism through four cardinal principles of free education, free health, integrated rural development, and full employment, which became known as Afenifere.
