Chairman of the Federal Inland Revenue Service (FIRS) Muhammad Nami has stated that a beautiful Nigeria is possible through the proliferation of entrepreneurship and industrial hubs across the federation, noting that the adoption of this model would create all-round economic transformation.
He made the remarks in his goodwill message on the occasion of the country’s 62nd Independence Day anniversary, according to a statement that was issued by his media office.
Mr. Nami urged Nigerians to invest in creating entrepreneurship and industrialisation hubs as they hold the “key to unlock the massive economic potentials of the country.”
The FIRS chairman called on states to emulate Ondo State’s entrepreneurship village which was set up to groom and harvest talents for the industrialization of the state. He called on other state governments to adopt this model and set up similar hubs in their states as a way of channeling the energies of young Nigerians to productive use.
“Nigeria is a country with limitless potentials. We are a resilient and talented people, and what these young Nigerians need is the enabling environment to thrive.
“A good place to start is the setting up of entrepreneurship and industrial hubs across every state in the country.
