For the past few decades in Nigeria, phrases like “providing an enabling environment”, and “ease of doing business” have become clichés.

When undertaking revolutionary projects that seek to correct societal ills of such endemic nature, regular evaluation along the line of established key performance indicators is an indispensable requirement. There has to be credible and effective feedback and redress mechanisms. Drivers cannot afford to stand aloof.“ease of doing business”

There is a thin line between “providing an enabling environment” and “ease of doing business”. Both involve the summation of activities and policies of government towards facilitating/catalysing economic activities in a country.

Politicians are aware that the challenges of an enabling environment and ease of doing business are the most pressing issues on the mind of the average Nigeria business person, as such every campaign season they promise to bring lasting solutions but only as campaign gimmicks. The sooner they get elected into office, their priorities change and nothing is done to check or improve the system. It is therefore no surprise that this situation has gotten worse with successive governments.

The emergence of social media has given greater voice and presence to advocacy groups and critics that now pressure the government to act on burning issues of general interest. Peer review reports by International organisations like the World Bank have also added pressure to governments of countries that are lagging behind to do something to improve their situations.
