President Bola Tinubu has congratulated Mr. Ridwan AbdulRazaq, a renewable energy expert, on winning the 2024 Prince’s Trust Global Sustainability Award.

AbdulRazaq was honoured for his accomplishments in advancing solar energy system design and deployment in Nigeria, especially in off-grid rural communities.

The President commended the Nigerian green-solution pacesetter, stating that AbdulRazaq’s achievements reinforced the long-held conviction that Nigeria’s climate goals and his administration’s green industrial vision are realisable with the active participation of the nation’s tremendously gifted youths.

While affirming that Nigeria can lead Africa and the rest of the world in science, technology, cutting-edge manufacturing, and other spheres of human pursuits with the composite ingenuity of the youth, Tinubu also enjoined Nigerians not to relent in applying the resources of their talents in any given area as his administration remains committed to providing support and giving flight to their dreams.
