NESG Event: Development as Attitude: The Nigerian Hamilton Project
By Trek Africa Newspaper
On behalf of the Board and Management of the Nigerian Economic Summit Group (NESG), I am pleased to invite you to dialogue session under The Nigeria Hamilton Project—an initiative designed to stimulate national conversations around leadership, governance, and economic transformation.
It is supported by the Gates Foundation, and The Nigeria Hamilton Project aims to catalyse critical, expert-led, evidence-based discussions that drive socioeconomic impact.
This initiative provides a unique platform to bridge academic discourse and real-world policymaking, engaging scholars, policymakers, corporate leaders and citizens in meaningful dialogues on the primacy of leadership mindset in influencing national development.
As part of this initiative, we are convening a thought-provoking panel inspired by Prof. Osita Ogbu’s seminal book, Development as Attitude: How National Progress is Shaped by Leadership Philosophy and Citizens’ Orientation.
The session will explore the role of leadership philosophy, citizen’s engagement, and collective action towards shaping development outcomes.
It will also examine comparative development experiences from Nigeria and selected African countries, with the goal of refining national and regional development strategies.
This event marks the first in a series of similar engagements to be held across Nigeria in the months ahead.
Event Details Date: Wednesday, April 30, 2025
