President Bola Tinubu says no fewer than one million youth will be gainfully employed in the digital economy under his administration.

The president made the promise on Monday while delivering his inaugural speech at the Eagle Square, Abuja.

My administration must create meaningful opportunities for our youth. We shall honour our campaign commitment of one million new jobs in the digital economy,” he said.

Mr Tinubu also said his administration would work with the National Assembly to facilitate a bill to empower his government to create more jobs.

“Our government also shall work with the National Assembly to fashion an omnibus Jobs and Prosperity bill. This bill will give our administration the policy space to embark on labour-intensive infrastructural improvements, encourage light industry and provide improved social services for the poor, elderly and vulnerable,” the president said.

Former President Muhammadu Buhari had in 2015, when he came into power, promised to create 24 million jobs before he leaves office. He promised to create three million jobs every year, but available data showed that his government left more Nigerians poorer and unemployed than it met in 2015.

Osabuohien Osaretin, also known as Sarz, a veteran Nigerian song producer, has stated why working with Afrobeats singer Davido is a challenge for him.

Sarz stated in an interview with Cool FM Nigeria in Lagos that he has made multiple fruitless attempts to collaborate with Davido.

He said, “Davido and I have worked but I don’t just know why it never comes out.

“I think the way he works and the way I work are very different. I feel like that is a big difference.

“A lot of times when I get in a session with him, there are just like so many people but I’m very used to working with the artist and maybe like two other people alone. So, when there is so many people, I can’t concentrate.

“Before reinventing himself as a music executive, Olamide was my favourite artist.” “I told him he was my favourite artist the first time we met,” Akon said.
