“If federal government can help us with the approval, we can go a long way.”
Emmanuel voiced the urge at the launch of a biography in honour of late Clement Isong, a former governor of the Central Bank and one-time governor of Old Cross River State, whose face is pictured on the N1,000 note. He donated N10 million to purchase 1,000 copies of the biography to be shelved in libraries across Akwa Ibom.
He said industrialization was key to getting youth out of unemployment and removing the frustration that millions of jobless young people feel. Related
