“In most states of the federation, you will agree that the administration of the state has made education a priority and the schools are being improved tremendously with free and compulsory education in some states.
”Nigeria has also developed tremendously in human capital; the government has been creating jobs through the National Social Investment Programme (NSIP).
“The program has been able to employ youths in the country and have trained youth in jobs and entrepreneurship, such that poverty has reduced to the bearest minimum.
