Kaduna State Governor Uba Sani has called for platforms that give young people room to build practical skills. He made the appeal while performing the groundbreaking ceremony for a new Skill Development Centre run by NASENI. The agency behind the project is the National Agency for Science and Engineering Infrastructure. Sani argued that young Nigerians need structured avenues where they can pick up trades and prepare for real jobs. He framed the centre as one piece of a wider effort to ready the state's youth for employment. With the ground broken, construction on the site can now move ahead. The governor tied the project to the broader question of jobs for Kaduna's large young population.
