The Construction of an Examination Hall in Numan and an Information & Communication Technology (ICT) Centre in Lamurde all support the Hon. Member’s vision to provide equal opportunity for every child and youth to achieve their full potentials without any limitations.
“With a high rate of unemployment among Nigerian youth and the ever sliming chances of getting employment in the formal public sector, coupled with the effect of Covid 19 pandemic on labour and employment globally, technical education presents a golden opportunity for the youth to learn skills that would make them not only to be employers of labour.
