To boost productivity among Nigerian youths and help reduce the high rate of unemployment in the country, the Redeemed Christian Church of God , Overcomers Zone, Abule Egba, Lagos has commenced an empowerment tand skill acquisition programme for young people in the community.
Speaking on the initiative, the Zonal Pastor, Afolabi Simeon decried the high rate of unemployed graduates in the country. “The truth remains that the major cause of unemployment among these vibrant youths is lack of skill to back up what they learnt from their institutions of learning. When these graduates were still in school, they did not border to learn at least one single skill, maybe that which is related to graphic designing, typing, hair dressing, electrical maintenance and others. If they had learnt any skill at all, the rate of unemployment will reduce among them.
Empowerment helps individuals or groups to fully access personal and collective power through knowledge, skills and motivation for proper functioning in their society and contribution to the economy,” he said.
