El documento describe la importancia de que los directores de colegios sean líderes efectivos. Un director líder se preocupa por conocer a los estudiantes y maestros, crear una cultura de éxito en la escuela, y apoyar a los maestros para mejorar la calidad de la enseñanza. En contraste, un director que solo se enfoca en la administración no logra los mismos resultados académicos. Grandes escuelas requieren de grandes líderes, como se ha demostrado en las escuelas KIPP en los Estados Unidos.

The document discusses a proposed national sub-structure model supported by the Central Bank of Nigeria and Private Sector Integrated Support Framework. The model aims to promote real sector development in Nigeria through eight regional clusters that would focus on integrated projects in solid minerals, agriculture, animal husbandry, and biofuels. These projects would help address Nigeria's economic challenges by increasing productivity, employment, and infrastructure development across key sectors. The goal is for Nigeria to transition from an import-dependent to a production-based economy.

The Nigerian economy relies heavily on oil exports which provides an unstable foundation for growth. Non-oil sectors like agriculture, manufacturing, and infrastructure have been underdeveloped due to oil dependency and weak private sector investment. The National sub structure (PSISF) model aims to address these issues by promoting demand-driven production across key sectors like agriculture, housing, and energy through increased private sector participation, employment opportunities, and development of domestic value chains and raw materials. Proper implementation of the PSISF model could help diversify and strengthen the Nigerian economy over the long run.
