The removal of the subsidy on Premium Motor Spirit, more commonly known as gasoline, and the present floating of the naira are two of the disruptive changes Nigeria must go through before it will emerge “victorious,” according to Chukwuma Soludo, the governor of Anambra State. The former governor of Nigeria’s top bank emphasized the need of the nation embracing its most valuable resource, which he called “human capital.”
The governor stated that the nation must let go of the “old order” and concentrate on the future. He also emphasized the importance of fully embracing technology, which, in his view, will give young people in society greater options.
According to a statement made accessible to our correspondent in Abuja on Thursday, Soludo revealed the information while the Solution Innovation District in the state capital of Awka was being officially opened.

He said, “The world may be going east or west, but Nigeria must go through necessary disruptive changes. The removal of subsidy and the floating of exchange rate are just some of these changes. It is quite auspicious that we are opening this district at this critical time.
“Our greatest resource is our human capital, and we want to mine it to its infinite elasticity. Only those who can see tomorrow. Only those who plan and work towards it can control the future. I ask our youths to look up to opportunities in these ongoing disruptive changes.
“In a digital age, human capital appreciates with continuous usage. We must keep on innovating and acquiring multiple scalable skills to control the future. We want the youths and children of Ndi Anambra to be prepared for this future- invention, innovation, and technology,” Governor Soludo said.
Soludo continued by saying that the state would give kids in the state more power so they could assure their control of the future and succeed as world champions.

“We must focus on tomorrow. The old order is gone, so let’s not cry to bring it back. We are empowering and training our youths to control the future and become champions of the world.
“Technology is our mantra. We want to get technology to become our culture. Everything is technology and technology is everywhere. The 0.01 criminals that cause a nuisance in our society cannot define us. They are completely insignificant,” the Governor stressed.
Earlier, Chinwe Okoli, the governor’s special adviser on innovation and business incubation, praised him for his dedication to realizing the goal, which she said was quite relevant.
“Solution Innovation District is a platform for you to innovate, create, ideate, invent, and give your talents the wings to fly. Yes, many of you here are a bundle of talents. You can create wonderful solutions and guess what? Now is the time with S.I.D. SID is a place where you think outside the box, think even without a box, Think big and Explore your immense potential.”
