Most of the times, Nigerians sit back and complain about bad leadership and governance but fail to explore available opportunities in the land for survival. This is according to Nigeria’s former ambassador to the Philippines, Dr Yemi Farounbi.
Farounbi expressed this concern in Ibadan, Oyo State, on Saturday at the pre-launch of the RF3 Nigeria, a wellness product outfit.
The erstwhile ambassador said in spite of the challenging moments in the land, the youth, which forms the bulk of the population, could creatively devise income generation models.
He said: “About 20 per cent of the more than 1.3 billion Africans are in Nigeria. This is the only country where you can reach the optimum but it depends on you. The market is here. If you get one per cent of that number, it creates for you an opportunity to make money.
