According to Ovie, It’s paramount for graduating students in tertiary institution to acquire skills which is in line with Governor Ifeanyi  okowa’s SMART agenda for job creation.

“Skill is very important in the life of every human, the reason many technicians earn more than some university graduates is that, technicians acquire more practical skills than theories, unlike the graduates who were fed with theoretical experiences while in the University, and depend more on their certificate rather than skills” Ovie said.

Meanwhile, Oghenetage, said the Skills Acquisition Awareness Program is coming as a result of the rate of unemployment in the country, noting that the  programme is aimed at sensitising students on the need to get a skill despite their field of study or area of specialization.

Oghenetage also urged students of various institutions to pay attention to the skill acquisition awareness programme, in a bid to curb unemployment in the country.

“The era of hoping on white Collar jobs is over. We all needs skills” he added
