The Development Process of the vision 2020
Concept Paper for Development of Vision 2020
Introduction
Nigeria’s economic potential is well recognized. It is the biggest economy in the West African sub region. Given the country’s considerable resource endowment and coastal location there is potential for strong growth. Yet Nigeria has realized very little of this potential. Previous efforts at planning and visioning were not sustained. The history of economic stagnation, declining welfare and social instability, has undermined development for most of the past 30 years.
But in recent years, Nigeria has been experiencing a growth turnaround and conditions seem right for launching onto a path of sustained and rapid growth, justifying its ranking amongst the N11 countries. These are the countries identified by Goldman Sachs to have the potential for attaining global competitiveness based on their economic and demographic settings and the foundation for reforms already laid.
The previous administration had declared the intention to pursue the vision of placing Nigeria among the 20 largest economies in the world by 2020 and the current administration is committed to the attainment of this vision.
Concept for Vision 2020
A vision is a clear mental picture of the future which must represent a significant improvement on the current state. It however must be supported by a clear and realistic path to its realisation and requires consistent and sustained effort for its achievement.
Key Goals for Vision 2020 - Vision Statement
“By 2020 Nigeria will be one of the 20 largest economies in the world able to consolidate its leadership role in Africa and establish itself as a significant player in the global economic and political arena.”
The Development Process, Methodology and Milestones
THE VISIONING PROCESS
In order to ensure the widest buy-in and anchor progressive implementation tied to performance it is recommended that the V2020 be developed and implemented in three stages as follows:
STAGE I: BUILDING A SOLID FOUNDATION FOR V2020 (2008–2010)
In this stage the first two components of the framework- the NCV2020 and the NSCV2020, should be established by the end of April 2007. The NSC2020 should undertake an immediate review of all current strategy and related documents including the President’s Seven Point Agenda, the NEEDS 2 and other relevant documents and prepare a Statement of National Priorities that will form the core elements of the country’s development plans and budgets during the period 2008 to 2010 and constitute the foundation for V2020. The Statement of National Priorities should set specific targets to be achieved by 2010. The NSCV2020 will also refine the V2020 framework and develop guidelines for the V2020 development process.
STAGE II: ACHIEVING THE MDGs ENROUTE TO V2020 (2011 – 2015)
By end of January 2008 the NSCV2020 will set up the National Technical Working Groups, one in each of the key areas of national priority and all stakeholder groups will establish their Vision 2020 Committees.
Under the overall direction of the NSC, the NTWGs will work closely with the Stakeholder Visioning Committees to develop detailed action plans and implementation strategies and commence implementation of Stage I of the Vision. At the same time Stakeholder Committees will begin the development of the next two stages of their Vision document.
Stage II should focus on achieving all the MDGs by 2015 as a general guide. Stakeholder Committees will determine their areas of focus in accordance with their progress on the MDGs.
STAGE III: BECOMING A TOP 20 ECONOMY BY 2020 (2015 – 2020)
In stage III, the National Steering Committee will develop detailed key goals and targets that must be met in order to achieve convergence with the projected positions of the top 20 economies. These goals and targets will be cascaded into sectors and sub-national levels.
The NTWGs will provide support in the form of data and methodologies as well as capacity building in their areas of specialty. They will also collate and harmonize the various stakeholder action plans and strategies into the National action plan and strategy for NV2020.

Timeline & Roadmap to Vision 2020

The Stage 1 of the V2020 plan constitute the 1st National Development Plan - the lift up stage which is aimed at addressing all the identified impediments to the nation’s growth which include: poor power supply, bad transport infrastructure, etc.
Already, these problems are being addressed under NEEDS-2 and the Seven Point Agenda of President - some aspects of the on-going rehabilitation works in the area of infrastructure are provided for in the 2008 Budget.
Based on the revised Timelines, the implementation of the remaining components of the work in stages II & III will span several years.

It is intended to have about 20-25 stakeholder committees. Stakeholders will include State Governments, MDAs and other key institutions.
