Professor Pat Utomi, co-founder of Lagos Business School and Pan Atlantic University, has said that ”Nigeria is a classic example of a country walking into failure”.

He stated that ”any society that is not investing in the education and well-being of its future generation is seriously heading towards anarchy”.

The professor of economics, therefore, urged government and groups across the country to find ways to halt ”Nigeria’s impending anarchy”.

The once presidential aspirant and a presidential aide stated this at the June, 2017 meeting of University of Nigeria, Nsukka (UNN) Alumni Association and presentation of Certificates of Honour to class of 1953 to 1967.

The professor, an alumnus of the university, said that groups and organisations like the alumni could use their wealth of experience and strength to work towards building stronger institutions in the country.

”Nigeria is a classic example of a country that is walking towards failure; the society fails largely because people like you have not done the needful to sustain the country.

”And so, when alumni of an institution that means something to the making of the nation does not realise its duty, the possibility is that history will hold them to account,” he added.
