President Tinubu on Tuesday has announced plans for Nigeria’s first‑ever National Industrial Manpower Development Policy, saying the country’s greatest asset lies in its people rather than its natural resources.
He pointed to the urgent need to bridge the gap between educational output and industry requirements to unlock Nigeria’s economic potential.
Speaking during a keynote address at the opening of the National Industrial Manpower Summit (NIMS) 2025 at the State House Conference Center, Abuja, the President, who was represented by his deputy, Vice President @KashimSM, said the country must urgently invest in its citizens or risk dire consequences.
The summit, with the theme “Manpower Development: The Bridge Between Potential and Productivity,” brings together government officials, industry leaders, academia, and international partners to develop actionable recommendations for workforce development.
