Vocational training sessions will cover shoemaking, soap making, barbing, tailoring, Adire production and artificial intelligence, with the organisers saying the programme is designed to promote employability, entrepreneurship and self-reliance.

Other sessions will focus on financial management, leadership and participation in the marketplace, as well as the “Joseph and Esther Revolution,” which organisers described as biblical models for leadership, governance and economic management.
