Why are government efforts lacking clear results?

I would say generally in Africa this is a problem! Our government parastatals are made of civil service people who never had a hand at entrepreneurship and most people are used to contract bidding, and supply. Very few understand what life cycle is nor the development steps! Business is different from trading! There is no value to life and living so what's there to be planing or developing?

Most of our leaders come from the stone era and to catch up with the trends is difficult as they didn't set it up in the first place! They didnt keep the industrialisation going so now infrastructure isnt available to support entrepreneurship.

They aren't able to negotiate our natural resources for what it is worth because they don't know of what benefit it is to the party requesting it! If there are business people who are consulting the government we probably would see some changes.

They also believe most of our population is into entrepreneurship anyway so what's the need to promote what's already in the mindset? Wrong judgement, mistaking retail for being business!

They do not fetch for the bright heads within the business environment and offer them a collaborative effort to push it further! Even if it is for no pay to them. Clearly not approaching those of us who are in diaspora making waves.

There is also a ploblem with the general populace. "Illiteracy" is high, no national education plan to push the knowledge we have!
