The Senior Special Assistant to
President Muhammadu Buhari on Industry, Trade and Investment, Olajumoke Omoniyi
Oduwole, has said it is not the federal government’s obligation to provide jobs
for Nigerians.
Oduwole made this known in Abuja
while addressing newsmen yesterday.
According to her, the role of the
government was to create an enabling business environment for everybody to
thrive.
Rationalising why
entrepreneurship studies was made compulsory in tertiary institutions, Oduwole
said the government wanted to groom a generation of private sector participants
because it is not the major driver of the economy.
Her words; “Entrepreneurship is
actually global best practice. In the US, we have so many entrepreneurs and
that is how it is everywhere around the world.
“The government only employs a
small amount of people. The private sector is the driver of any economy, it is
not the government.
“What the government is obliged
to do is to make sure there are regulations, laws, amongst other things to make
business thrive in the country.”

No nobody should blame you because you were not in the campaign team of your Oga during the campaign period and that was why you were saying this. And even at that, I believe you were not deaf at that time when promises were coming left, right, front and back. If they knew they were not obliged to provide jobs, why making the promises? Madam, I think you should stay silent and let LIE Mohammed and what is her name again, ehm....Onochie to continue with theirs pks.
