Minister of Works and Housing, Babatunde Fashola is very angry and has bared his mind.
He said: “People talk about these public-private partnerships (PPPs) because I hear candidates saying they are going to privatise everything, give everything to the private sector.”
“You need to understand the global private sector. First of all, it is largely MSMES; you can’t give everything to them. They don’t even have the capacity.”
“The micros roughly employ about 10 people; the medium, less than 50; the small less than 200. So, it can’t be a governance model to say you are going to give everything to the private sector.”
