“What are the services you can render with your certificate? That is the level we are going to now. The digital economy is already reducing the need for manpower. Gone are the days, when graduates of technical colleges, polytechnics are referred to as the never do well.”

 

“Parents should encourage their children to acquire manipulative and vocational skills that will help them to create jobs for themselves when government jobs are not available. You must render a service to get paid and the service you render is in line with the sellable skill you are able to acquire,” he said.
