A 34-year-old presidential aspirant on the platform
of Youth Party (YP), Mr. Dele Oludare Jnr, has said the growing youth
population in the country is enough to transform the country’s economy if
properly deployed.
Oludare disclosed this in Akure, Ondo State, Tuesday when he announced his aspiration to youths drawn across the state
three senatorial districts who paid him a courtesy visit.
According to him, “There are several elements that
are needed for the economic progress of a country, some of which include
skills, opportunities, productivity, reward system and credit facilities.
“The right use of these key elements can make a
country to achieve greatness at a faster rate. Nigeria is a country of
enthusiastic youth population that is ready to work productively to sustain
themselves and generate income for their immediate families.
“With this attitude, it becomes an easy task to
create a strong economy for the country by expanding job opportunities for its
working population.”
Oludare said he had prepared a two-package plan
that could be used to create decent jobs for Nigerians, and an economic giant, Nigeria
is one of the greatest countries in the world.
“One of the plans is referred to as ‘geometric
improvement in credit status’, while the second plan is what I termed
‘bank-initiated market or funding solution to credit crunch’.
“There is a need to improve the credit rating for
all prospective and current business owners. This will afford them the means to
expand their business, and be able to earn more revenue.
“As these businesses expand, they give room for
more job opportunities. The aim of these ideas is to improve home-grown
businesses, factories and organisations from a very small scale of operation to
a large scale of operation.
“With this plan, it will be possible to create up
to 10 million thriving businesses for Nigerians,” Oludare highlighted.
