President Muhammadu Buhari has assured that his administration will be taking more pragmatic actions in the next few months to improve the nation’s economy and boost the living condition of Nigerians.
Speaking at the 8th Annual Bola Tinubu Colloquium held at the International Conference Centre, ICC, in Abuja, the President said it is the desire of his government to invest heavily in human capital development so as to reduce the high level poverty in the country.
“In the coming months, Nigerians will see much more actions. Government will continue to invest substantially in human capital development and this is just the beginning,” he said.
The President continued that, “We are going to hold ourselves accountable. We will measure results. There will always be some skepticism, some have even become disorientated and impatient enough to think that barriers are insurmountable. Anyone who claim great change is impossible can only look as an ordinary success.”
Despite the odds, he said that there are incredible examples of entrepreneurs who have set up processing factories, green house farming , stressing that “We can achieve more with partnership that link up and scale up our respective efforts.
“I am declaring that we need a new approach that challenges more states and local governments, more organisations, companies and non-governmental organisations and individuals, some of the younger people who are here to step up and play a role because government cannot and should not do it alone. All hands should be on deck,” he added.
