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.
Tinubu urged policymakers, investors and young people to embrace productivity, technology and value‑addition across sectors, pledging continued reforms to remove obstacles facing businesses and innovators. The remarks reinforce the administration’s push for economic diversification and investments in education, tech talent and creative industries.
