President Bola Tinubu has declared that Nigeria’s future prosperity depends more on the creativity and innovation of its citizens than on crude oil revenues. Speaking at a public event, he argued that human capital, entrepreneurship and digital skills are the true drivers of a $1‑trillion economy, while natural resources should be treated as enablers rather than the core of national wealth.

The remarks reinforce the administration’s push for economic diversification and investments in education, tech talent and creative industries.
