Physics in the third world countries is seen as been ostensible, hence, regarded as abstract subject with its applications far from human reached. This has deterred the achievement of various laudable visions in the country. The long term vision 20:2020 aimed at propelling the country to the league of the top 20th economies of the world by the year 2020 may not be achieved except physics is made real and apply within our environment. The paper encourages the use of multimedia, computer simulations as well as guided enquiry in the teaching of physics. However, the use of lecture time for deriving equations had been discouraged. This would prepare the right background for technological development needed to achieve the vision.
