Trade Nigeria, FG, Toyota, Nissan partner on Nigeria National Automobile Training program 2021

As one of the plans to lift Nigeria’s economy in the post-covid-19 era, the Federal Government of Nigeria will be partnering other agencies to train 500 Nigerian Youths, in automobile engineering.

The programme which is put together by Trade Nigeria, so far, has three ministries, JICA Nigeria, Toyota, and Nissan automobile Japan as partners. It is expected to take place in 2021.

The President of Trade Nigeria, Hon. Nwabueze Buchi George said the programme is one of the many programmes they have lined up to alleviate the lots of Nigerian Youths especially as the world prepares for life after the covid-19 pandemic.

Hon. Buchi George said the Nigeria National Automobile Training program 2021, is part of their Train-Nigeria, Learn-Nigeria Project for 2021, adding that he is excited with the number of endorsements the programme has seen so far.

Federal Ministry of Special Duties and Inter-Governmental Affairs; Federal Ministry of Humanitarian Affairs, Disaster Management and Social Development as well as the Federal Ministry of Niger Delta Affairs are the three ministries involved with the programme, with Hon. Buchi George saying that their presence will further solidify the international partnerships and help in maximizing the missions of the programme.

“The mission is simply, to reduce unemployment among youths in the country, on the other side,  it  will be a revolution for the service sector of Nigeria”

“There are other programmes in the bag and kicking this off with Japan will open doors for what we have in other countries like Germany, Taiwan, France, Korea, Turkey, Sweden, China, and the UK”

“What we want to achieve is to train people who are good enough to work in any part of the world. With that kind of workforce, one thing we are sure of in Nigeria is standard. As the knowledge is passed down, we will witness a high level of change in the way things are done here”, he said.

Hon. Nwabueze Buchi George added that saving the undermined service sector will be of huge benefit to Nigeria’s economy, hailing Toyota and Nissan automobile Japan who have agreed to absorb 300 and 200 Nigerians respectively in the programme.

“Training 500 Nigerians in Japan alone is a huge step for us and the country as a whole. One thing that is very important now is to ensure that all the necessary preparatory works are done on time, while we are also working towards securing other necessary partnerships that will ensure our goals are achieved”, he added.

Profile Brazil

Brazil has a developing mixed economy that is the twelfth largest in the world by nominal Gross Domestic Product (GDP) and eighth largest by purchasing power parity in 2020. According to International Monetary Fund (IMF), Brazil's 2020 nominal GDP was R$7.348 trillion or US$1.363 trillion. Brazil is the 83rd country in the world in GDP per capita, with a value of US$6,450 per inhabitant. The country has an estimated at Int$20.18 trillion worth of natural resources which includes vast amounts of gold, uranium, iron, and timber.

As of late 2010, Brazil's economy is the largest in Latin America and the second largest in the Americas. From 2000 to 2012, Brazil was one of the fastest-growing major economies in the world, with an average annual GDP growth rate of over 5%. Its GDP surpassed that of the United Kingdom in 2012, temporarily making Brazil the world's sixth-largest economy. However, Brazil's economic growth decelerated in 2013 and the country entered a recession in 2014. The economy started to recover in 2017, with a 1% growth in the first quarter followed by a 0.3% growth in second quarter compared to the same period of the previous year, and officially exited the recession. Brazil has remained stuck in the "middle income trap" and also faces high unemployment.

According to the World Economic Forum, Brazil was the top country in upward evolution of competitiveness in 2009, gaining eight positions among other countries, overcoming Russia for the first time, and partially closing the competitiveness gap with India and China among the BRIC economies. Important steps taken since the 1990s toward fiscal sustainability, as well as measures taken to liberalize and open the economy, have significantly boosted the country's competitiveness fundamentals, providing a better environment for private-sector development. In 2020, Forbes ranked Brazil as having the 7th largest number of billionaires in the world. Brazil is a member of diverse economic organizations, such as Mercosur, Unasul, G8+5, G20, WTO, Paris Club and the Cairns Group.

From a colony focused on primary sector goods (sugar, gold and cotton), Brazil has managed to create a diversified industrial base in the 20th century. The steel industry is a prime example of that, with Brazil being the 9th largest steel producer in 2018, and the 5th largest steel net exporter in 2018 Gerdau is the largest producer of long steel in the Americas, owning 337 industrial and commercial units and more than 45,000 employees across 14 countries.
