Former Vice President, Atiku
Abubakar has reacted to the statement credited to philanthropist and founder of
Microsoft, Bill Gates concerning Nigeria’s Economic plan.
Bill Gates at the expanded
national economic council presided over by Vice-President Yemi Osinbajo said
that President Buhari’s economic recovery growth plan (ERGP) does not truly
reflect the needs of Nigerians.
He was quoted as saying “The
Nigerian government’s economic recovery and growth plan identify investing in
our people as one of three strategic objectives.
“But the execution priorities
don’t fully reflect people’s needs, prioritising physical capital over human
capital.”
Reacting, Atiku hailed Bill Gates
for his interest and support in the economic growth of Nigeria.
The Former Vice President wrote
on his Twitter page “I applaud @BillGates for his interest and support of
Nigeria.
“I share his concerns of the
challenges we face and believe as he does they can be overcome when we as a
nation consciously make requisite investments in our human capital and
infrastructure.”
