A Problem
In Nigeria, a nation with a diverse population of over 200 million, high unemployment rates, and a significant youth demographic, there exists a pressing issue of skill inadequacy hindering economic growth. With approximately 50 million unemployed individuals and a dependency ratio of 3:1, the burden on the workforce intensifies. Moreover, 40% of the youthful population, equivalent to 62.5 million individuals, lack employable skills, exacerbating the unemployment crisis. This scenario underscores a critical challenge: the urgent need to bridge the skills gap and equip the youth with the necessary competencies to secure meaningful employment and drive socioeconomic progress.
