Vice-President, Yemi Osinbajo, says President Muhammadu Buhari’s administration has saved over one million jobs and forestalled the closure of over 150,000 small businesses hit by the COVID-19 pandemic.
Osinbajo, who disclosed this yesterday, while speaking virtually during a United Nations High-Level Forum on Jobs and Social Protection, noted that the federal government achieved this through the Economic Sustainability Plan.
He stated that the social protection schemes can break the cycle of poverty, give real access to jobs, economic opportunities, and improve human capacity.
The Vice President added that the Economic Sustainability Plan is geared towards restoring growth by mitigating the macro-economic shock while repositioning the economy for future resilience.
