FG Establishes 270 Vocational Training Centres Nationwide

The Federal Government has established 270 vocational training centres across Nigeria as part of its drive to promote entrepreneurship and skill acquisition among youths.

Mr. Rasaq Akinyemi, Deputy Executive Secretary (Technical) of the Universal Basic Education Commission (UBEC), disclosed this during a public hearing by the House Committee on Alternative Education in Abuja. The hearing reviewed nine bills, including one proposing the establishment of the National Institute for Technical and Vocational Education in Kalgo, Kebbi State.

Mr. Akinyemi stressed that strengthening and expanding existing vocational training structures offers a more cost-effective and timely solution to youth empowerment.

He highlighted that, with rapid technological advancements and shifting market demands, equipping Nigerian youths with relevant skills is critical to their success.
