Nigeria expanding investment opportunities in renewable energy - Osinbajo

“I think what has happened is that some of the contractors would prefer to sell wholesale power to the national grid; off course, that gives more certainty with regards to their revenues.Osinbajo cited the Energising Economy programme in Sabon Gari, Ariaria and other markets across the country as example of the progress made so far.

On creating the enabling environment for youths to leverage technology, Osinbajo said that the focus had been on trying to encourage young people actualise their dreams within the Nigerian space. “The first thing is to democratise that space, which is what we are doing so that there is adequate competition.

On how some of the programmes had impacted young Nigerian entrepreneurs, Osinbajo said most of the services required for the implementation of components of the Social Investment Programmes were provided by Nigerian technology companies. “Even for purposes of giving out micro-credit loans to two million petty traders across the country, from enumeration to building the platforms for payments, are young Nigerian companies that have done these – Softcom to GDM among others.
