La solidaridad y la empatía son opcionales.

El respeto a los tratados europeos y a los datos, no.

The deeper mapping projects 916,800 new fashion jobs by 2030. The largest jobs projection in the creative economy. Fashion already employs more Nigerians than any other creative sector — and 59% of those workers are women. When I read 916,000 new jobs I think about the tailor in Aba earning under ₦500,000 a year. Those are the jobs this number represents. Building the conditions to make them real — financial access, skills training, market connectivity — is what this Ministry's fashion infrastructure mandate is for.
