He said, “Our country requires a major economic transformation. We possess extensive human and capital resources but we have not effectively leveraged our resources to catalyze economic growth and development.
“Our environment remains unattractive to the levels of capital we require to bridge our deficits and infrastructure gaps.”
He, however, commended the President for the efforts in saving the economy from the worst scenario through intervention programmes.
Ighodalo noted with concern the need to prioritise youths in policies and programmes that will equip them for future opportunities.
“There is a need to prioritise investments in our youth by upskilling them for the jobs of the future and opening up the social and political space for them to become a positive force for national development,” said the NESG boss.
