ExcerptsSince your appointment as Minister of Arts, Culture and the Creative Economy, what are those things that have happened in that space?
When it comes to job creation, which is one of the things that we have committed to as a ministry, specifically for the younger demographics with CLAP, we will be able to get them jobs whether in Nigeria or across the world. It is a tool that we have already launched within the ministry, we are working to flesh that out as well, and hopefully we will take it to the executive council. As I said earlier, policy is key. It is foundational.
You preempted me on that. Part of the policy framework that we want to put in place is an incentive policy. Incentive policy is very important for people in the industry, and we have already started working on that. It is just a matter of cleaning that up and presenting it to the public. The incentive policy also looks at how we can give incentives to people and rebates, tax rebates within the industry.
Since you started your stakeholder engagements, what sort of challenges would you say you have faced?
