If I am Buhari, I will use Lagos as my sample project. Almost Everything in this state is mind sweetening, the developmental stride is visible to the blind and this is what we ought to be seeing in Nigeria after 3years of Mr Buhari's reign.

Lagos is on auto pilot.

It is not about training them. The market is already over-saturated. Will they find them clients as well?Wonder why everyone thinks learning a vocational skill is the ultimate escape from poverty.

Great this is just like UK Job Centre.
After registration tax major companies in Lagos State to pay job seekers allowance of 5K to unemployed Lagos indegenes just like UK till they secure a job.

this isnt new na, it's been on for more than a decade already, Ambode also introduced LSETF to support it in 2015.

More like Skill acquisition centres Lagos need real job centres like the ones you can find in Europe where job seekers can use their facilities to look for jobs , apply for jobs and get jobs...

This is a good start

Come on use your brain, we have over 180million people in this country with yearning needs that have not been met. So what exactly do you mean by "over-saturated"

We still import the smallest of things, we still look out of this country for the fabrication or construction of somethings. Even China with her enormous Arsenal of citizens with vocational skills will not say it's over-saturated.

Now where the problem lies is that people don't make use of what they've learnt but rather still looking for the white collar jobs or how to get rich quick forgetting that everything has its gestation period.

We will get there.

If I had learnt a skill or two before graduating from the university, I wouldn't have spent time trying to secure a job. After getting the job, the question now is, am I satisfied?

Nothing beats being empowered with skill sets to make a living for yourself other than waiting for hand-outs.

If I have the time, I will like to partake in this opportunity, there is this particular skill I am yearning for right now and I need an expert to put me through. Also, I will get to benefit directly from this government and Nigeria as a whole for the first time in my small existence.

Please I'm looking for a government centre that trains on agricultural skills

Good governance brings good development

africangirl000:


You are the one who needs to use your brain. Any sensible Nigerian knows when nigerians mention "skill acquisition", it refers to the areas of fashion designing, baking, makeup artistry, bead making and the likes. If you had common sense, (which apparently you lack else you wouldn't have quoted me with insults) you would know the market is indeed oversaturated. Do you know how many bakers are on Lagos mainland alone? Do you know how many keep enrolling in vocational schools daily to learn same skill? Where is the market? You as a human, would you be willing to try out the service of someone new and untrusted when you already have a "customer"?

First of all the skill you listed has been saturated...

fashion designing,
baking,
makeup artistry,
bead making

My question to you here is, is it better to have these skills or not having at all?

If truly they are saturated, how many have we exported to atleast countries like Ghana, Benin, Togo etc.

Not to even go too far how well are these industries grown in the whole of Nigeria and not Lagos alone(hence my 180million potential customers)

How well are we competing with the foreign counter part in this country.

If I were you, how differently can I harness these skills would be my concern so as to stand out.

I will say again, use your brain as I will equally love to use mine.

That's a good idea

pls where can I locate a center close to iyana ipaja?

so no information on how to register abi


continue ...
