Implemented in collaboration with the Nigeria-Korea Friendship Institute for Vocational and Advanced Technology (NKFI), the training programme is aimed at providing young people  the necessary skills to meet industry demands.

The ultimate goal is to train a minimum of 1,000 youths in high-demand vocational skills by 2027, positioning Kogi as a center of technical expertise and innovation.

The governor reiterated this pledge yesterday during the graduation ceremony of 250 youths who completed various skills acquisition programmes under the Ododo Youth Empowerment and Skills Acquisition Programme (OYESA).
