WATCH THE VIDEO HERE President Bola Tinubu has said that Nigeria’s increasing population needs industrial solutions that will transform it into “demographic dividends”. Tinubu, who stated this on Wednesday at the Taraba International Investment Summit, tagged ‘Taravest,‘ in Jalingo, the state capital. The President, who was represented by Vice President Kashim Shettima, said the country cannot live on raw produce and unprocessed minerals, but needs factories to add value, clusters to drive innovation, and industrial parks to turn ideas into impact. “We know that our growing population is a cry for an industrial solution. But above all, we need visionaries. We need those who see beyond the narrow confines of trade and into the transformative possibilities of industry. “We need people like Aliko Dangote. We need people like Tony Elumelu. The trajectory of global growth is facing Africa, and Nigeria will make or mar that transition,” he added.
