Director-General of NDE, Mr Abubakar Nuhu Fikpo, represented by the Sokoto State Coordinator, Mrs Eunice J. Danmallam, said this at the opening of the five-day training held at Shamsuddeen Plaza Sokoto.

According to her the training would enable unemployed graduates of tertiary institutions to become self-reliant through the vehicle of entrepreneurship.

She said that the goal of the training was to unleash the potentials of the participants and they will be sensitized on the realities of the Nigerian labour market and trained on the types of businesses that fit their interests, skills and competencies.

Beneficiaries will be trained on how to write viable feasibility studies with which to source for funds to expand or establish their businesses.

However, the coordinator called other tiers of government, the private sector and other well-meaning Nigerians to join forces with Federal Government in the fight against mass unemployment in the country.

Also speaking, some of the participants described NDE as the leading agency in various Skills Acquisition, job creation and poverty reduction hence, promised to make good use of the training.
