Governor ‘Seyi Makinde has advised the outgoing corps members of the 2021 Batch ‘B’ (Stream I) service year, to take a step towards self employment, by putting into practice the skills acquired in the course of their service year.

Citing the alarming rate of unemployment bedeviling the country, Makinde urged the youths to sustain the ideals of self reliance, stating that the Skills Acquisition and Entrepreneurship Development Programme (SAED), remains a laudable initiative of the NYSC scheme geared at empowering the graduate youth and equipping them to become entrepreneur.
