President Bola Tinubu has affirmed that Nigeria could take the lead in Africa and even globally in science, technology, cutting-edge manufacturing, and other spheres of human pursuits with the composite ingenuity of the youth.
The President, who enjoined Nigerians not to relent in applying the resources of their talents in any given area as his administration remained committed to providing support and giving flight to their dreams, said this yesterday while lauding the strides of Mr. Ridwan AbdulRazaq, a renewable energy expert, on winning the 2024 Prince’s Trust Global Sustainability Award.
According to a release by his spokesman, Mr. Ajuri Ngelale, 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 active participation of the nation’s tremendously gifted youths.
