NESG advocates far-reaching reforms in education, health sectors for access to economic opportunities
The Nigerian Economic Summit Group (NESG) says reforms in the education and health sectors, accompanied by strategic investments, are necessary to improve quality of life and obtain better educational outcome in the country.
NESG stated this in its 2018 Macroeconomic Outlook titled “Will Nigeria’s growth be inclusive in 2018 and beyond?”
The outlook, obtained by the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Abuja on Monday, indicated that development of human capabilities, access to quality education and healthcare were basic rights of citizens.
NESG advised that government policies should be tailored to significantly support both sectors to improve standard of living in the country.
“The relevance of education remains unclear, it is apparent that the educational system is raising graduates that find it difficult to fit into the workplace, even as innovation and entrepreneurship learning are not picking up as expected.
“Healthcare in Nigeria is in a dire state; this is evident in the high infant and under-five mortality rate.
