Moniepoint CEO Sounds Alarm Over 500 Unfilled Roles Due to Nigeria’s Skill Gap

Moniepoint CEO Sounds Alarm Over 500 Unfilled Roles Due to Nigeria’s Skill Gap

Tosin Eniolorunda, CEO of Moniepoint, says the fintech firm has about 500 vacancies it cannot fill despite focusing solely on Nigerian hires. He warns that both the number and quality of applicants fall short of the “global standards” required. Eniolorunda points to weaknesses in the education system, shifting youth values and the lure of quick-money schemes. The CEO also highlights the ongoing brain drain, noting many skilled professionals continue to migrate abroad. He urges deliberate investment in human capital, sustainable career paths and stronger role models for young Nigerians.
