Vice-President Yemi Osinbajo (SAN) has said Nigeria is moving from a natural resource-based economy to exporter of human capital.

Osinbajo stated this in a virtual message to the 2020 Art of Technology conference with the theme: Smart Data, Smarter Lagos, today.

A statement by the Senior Special Assistant to the President on Media and Publicity in the Office of the Vice President, Mr. Laolu Akande, quoted the Vice-President as saying though Nigeria had been known globally as one of the leading producers of crude oil, its reputation in the near future will be based on creativity.

“It is now evident that within the next decade, Nigeria will cease to be a country whose main contribution to the world is crude oil. The resources that we have, which are increasingly in high demand, globally, are your capacity for innovation, your imagination, your creative content and your highly adaptive solutions. Your minds and workspaces are the refineries of the present and the future.

“We are finally embracing the true logic of true wealth. It is not being a primary producer, it is about value-added, it’s about maximally leveraging what you have, technology, and in particular, data offers that incredible opportunity,” he said.

Osinbajo added: “As we contend with the challenge of providing the means of self-actualisation for nearly 200 million people and one of the world’s fastest-growing populations, it is clear that we must marshal the resourcefulness and ingenuity of our citizens in the quest for development and growth. “Developmental governance in the 21st century is about continuously deploying innovative solutions against our most complex challenges.”

Like any other matter of public consumption bullshit is meant primarily to satisfy the hunger of its manufacturer, for you have to believe in your own delusion in order to make people have a share in it.
You can tell a politician is lying when they claim they want fairness for all. They're part of and represent an unfair elite who will never share their wealth, power or opportunities with the underclass.

Yenefer:
Lies

Reading only the headline will not help you. Reading doesn't kill, read the content. Comment after reading the content and not the headline.

FTC should have a reasonable comment attached not unreasonable and irrational one

This one i have no doubt about.
Because many people starting to realise we don't have to wait for government to get it right before we can develop ourselves.
Those that are waiting will continue complaining.

Yenefer:
Lies

Enemies of progress in any form.

This is 100% true and soonest nigeria will get to the top

Yenefer:
Lies

I know you won't believe it,anyway just wait and see

This truth

Innovative ideas are the real reasons behind problem solving in this age and staying relevant in the world of today means you need to have it (innovations). And, innovation allows for growth and development.

my new found friend just like helinues.

I hope when he says human resources, he is talking of other sectors and not just the tech industry. We have flourished in tech because just like the entertainment industry, there's little or no interference from the government. They are not welcome, we would like them to keep on being spectators.
Maybe the recent and startups are receiving, and the fact that they couldn't get a cut from the PayStack acquisition deal bothers them a lot.

Agreed Mr. VP. Some Miscreants wont reason with this

After 5 years in Government you are still campaigning for the remaining 3years.

-This chap is just a textbook politician.
