Vocational Training Is The Answer To Unemployment Among The Youths   

By RE-ORENTATION ADVOCACY FOUNDATION OF NIGERIA

 

The rate of unemployment in the society today is quite alarming



The youths of today now loan the streets helpless and hopeless.

The youths now engage in crimes like stealing, murder and armed robbery Just to please themselves.If the youth who are academically at risk are encoded in vocational training, then the youth of today, will have what is popularly known as “HAND WORK” when individuals engage themselves in various hand work, we will have less unemployed youths.

ASOJU ODO YOUTH DEVELOPMENT CENTER LAUNCHES A FREE VOCATIONAL CENTER FOR, LESS PRIVILEGED IN KWARA SOUTH, EKAN.

We do not know that if there is no cobbler, there will be nobody to mend our shoes. if there is no tailor, who will sew our clothes?? If there is no hair dresser, who will make our ladies hair and even cute the men’s hair

Not everybody can afford a university degree, and not everyone is academically inclined.  We have had a lot of successful entrepreneurs who are changing and shaping the business world, for example Bill Gates, Steve Jobs etc.

These people learnt technical and vocational skills which impacted and led them into designing technologies that provide solution to the world

The Federal Government and state government should encourage and support vocational training and skills acquisition among the learning population of all Nigeria State youths, in order to curb unemployment and it’s consequences.


AM PROUD TO BE AN ENTREPRENEUR, A PROFESSIONAL ELECTRICIAN , COMPUTER OPERATOR, TEACHER E.t.c.
 If you are with me on this journey to eradicate high rate of employment stragulating the growth of our economy. All you need to do is to start sensitising our fellow youth mindset on the important of Vocational training.
