The Lagos Plan of Action arose out of general awareness that the African region has become poorer after two decades of independence. After experiences of recurrent droughts and famine, internecine civil wars between diverse ethnic groupings, foreign exploitation of natural resources, drain of scarce foreign exchange; migration of talents, widespread unemployment, and rising inflation the bells of alarm were rung from vari6us quarters - African and non-African. The ship of State, having started its maiden voyage on the rough sea of development some twenty years before, lost its course and was so clearly 'heading for the rocks'. The Plan happens to provide opportunities also, and these must be perceived and perused without fail. There are times, albeit few, when an opportunity ~o clearly presents itself., and is just waiting to be taken.
