Did we anticipate Donald J. Trump's second coming? If yes, what scenario planning did we put in place in anticipation of his victory?

The United Kingdom’s devaluation of the pound sterling in 1967 caught many countries in the “Sterling Zone” flat-footed. Unlike most of the other countries in that zone, Nigeria was so well prepared, that the British government, in a document recently declassified, had cause to be perturbed as to whether the Nigerian government had a “mole” in the British treasury.
One of the ways to prepare is to harness our strengths and areas of competitive advantage. In 2025, I suggest the government should put together two business investment fora. One in Rotterdam in the Netherlands, focussed on trade deals and partnerships for value addition agro industrials. Two, plan and implement a Creative Arts investment forum in Atlanta chaired by a well-known creative like Oprah Winfrey or Tyler Perry.
This linkage has enormous potential to make the creative arts sector a major source of foreign exchange earnings, as obtained in India currently. India makes $2 billion from the creative arts, and Nigeria can aim for $600 million annually by 2028. To protect creative endeavours, one of the first steps is a revamp of Intellectual property laws, code sharing and the development of production facilities. The repertoire of what is doable is mind blowing.
