June 28, (THEWILL) – President Bola Tinubu has said Nigeria can take the lead in Africa and even the rest of the world in science, technology, cutting-edge manufacturing, and other spheres of human pursuits with the composite ingenuity of the youth.
The President enjoined Nigerians not to relent in applying the resources of their talents in any given area, as his administration remains committed to providing support and giving flight to their dreams.
A press statement issued by Ajuri Ngelale, Special Adviser to the President on Media and Publicity, informed that Tinubu spoke on Friday, while warmly congratulating Mr Ridwan AbdulRazaq, a renewable energy expert, on winning the 2024 Prince’s Trust Global Sustainability Award.
AbdulRazaq was honoured for his accomplishments in advancing solar energy system design and deployment in Nigeria, especially in off-grid rural communities.
Tinubu commended the Nigerian green-solution pacesetter, stating that AbdulRazaq’s achievements reinforce the long-held conviction that Nigeria’s climate goals and his administration’s green industrial vision were realisable with the active participation of the nation’s tremendously gifted youths.
