Now this policy of not ruling out nationalisation in our national economy is not peculiar to Nigeria. And consequently the country had nothing to fear at all by discussing nationalisation and by saying or declaring that nationalisation cannot be ruled out of our national economy. In the government publication ‘Economic Survey of 1959’, it is clearly stated that nationalisation will not be ruled out in the future. Public ownership, which is also called nationalisation, is not anything strange to this country. The nationalisation of these three businesses will help to allay the discontent of the people and in addition will help considerably to improve the exchequer of the government of the federation.
