The state’s Commissioner for Wealth Creation and Employment, Mr. Akinyemi Ajigbotafe, disclosed this during the ongoing Ministerial Press Briefing held at Alausa, Ikeja, to mark the second year of Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu’s second term in office.

According to him, to combat poverty and promote economic empowerment, the state government has trained 3,006 unemployed youths in the last two years through various capacity-building and job-readiness initiatives.

Ajigbotafe explained that the Ministry partnered with local and international academies to provide employability skills training for over 2,000 graduates, some of whom secured full-time employment after their internships.

He also announced plans to onboard an additional 5,500 residents under the Nigeria CARES (NG-CARES) programme, with each beneficiary set to receive a monthly stipend of N20,000. This initiative aligns with the THEMES Plus development agenda, emphasising social inclusion, gender equality, youth empowerment, and economic resilience.
