President BOLA TINUBU has assured Nigerians that there is hope for the nation’s financial and economic prospects.
President TINUBU gave the assurance during the unveiling and launch of the Expatriate Employment Levy (EEL), held at the State House, Abuja.
The president, who lauded the Minister of Interior, OLUBUNMI TUNJI-OJO, for the various progressive innovations he had introduced into the job, described the EEL scheme as another game changer.
He expressed excitement over the various positive advantages of the scheme, including better employment opportunities for Nigerians with foreign companies, bridging of the wage gap between Nigerian employees and expatriates in foreign companies’ operations in Nigeria, as well as its usefulness to national security.
He, however, warned that the operators of the scheme should be careful not to turn it into another bureaucratic bottleneck, which is capable of frustrating potential investors.
