How I empowered Nigerian Youths in last two years – Tinubu
President Bola Tinubu has said that his administration’s “empowerment initiatives” have immensely benefitted the youth. He said the initiatives include “access to funds, skill development, and creating employment opportunities.”
The President said his administration’s “MSME support” has ‘empowered the next generation and bridged inequality’.
Mentioning the “giant strides” made by the National Agency for Science and Engineering Infrastructure (NASENI) as an example, President Tinubu stated the agency’s “digital-first approach”, “real-time dashboards”, as well as its “Unified ERP System enabled end-to-end e-procurement” has set “a new governance benchmark for public institutions.”
Other government-based initiatives he introduced in the last two years are “Innovate Naija”, “Irrigate Nigeria”, “the Asset Restoration Programme”, and the “Renewable Energy and Innovation Park in Gora.”
He adds, “From assembling electric vehicles and reviving idle assets to launching Africa’s most advanced Rapid Diagnostic Kit Factory and training female drone engineers through the NASCAV programme, these initiatives are creating jobs, restoring dignity to work, and opening up a future of possibilities for our youth.”
“This is the movement we promised—a government of action powered by the energy and innovation of young Nigerians,” the President said.
