The Special Adviser on Economic Affairs to President Bola Tinubu, Tope Fasua has asked Nigerian youths to use the time they spend on abusing government and big men on social media to learn a skill.
The presidential aide stated this during an interview on Channels Television’s Politics Today, Tuesday’s edition.
He called on Nigerians to position themselves for the ‘goodies’, arguing that “people are making money” in this country.
Fasua said the Nigerian economy was ticking off, and anyone who failed to position themselves would not have anyone to blame if left behind.
“What I’ve said very clearly is that the opportunities are there. Open your eyes and stay positioned. Look, if somebody makes themselves unemployable they will have issues.
“But if you avail yourself, even if it was training, there are free trainings online that someone can go for. It’s either you’re using the time to abuse the government and big men whoever they are on the internet or you are taking a training to reposition yourself for better employment.
“So, time has changed. Nobody is saying that people should continue to suffer. No. And of course…people will usually say when they’re suffering but when people get advantage you won’t hear anything.
“In this same country somebody lost over $3 million which was equivalent to over N6b. A comedian or something, he lost it to FX gambling.
“You wouldn’t have known that someone in that realm had N6b and of course he still has some more money today. So, we’re not saying that people should suffer. We’re saying that already, the economy is ticking off….”
