A PhD holder, Sani Suleiman of the Faculty of Arabic and Islamic Studies, Katsina University, has joined some youths in a 10-day skills acquisition training on leather works.

The training, put together by the Katsina State Development Fund in collaboration with Noor Management Consulting Services Limited, was held on Monday at the NYSC Orientation Camp Hall.

According to the Executive Secretary of the Katsina State Development Fund, Ahmed Karfi, the training was aimed at complementing the efforts of both the state and the Federal Government to ensure that youths become self-employed.

He explained that the fund has recently trained a total of 400 youths across the state on information and communication technology, and digital and marketing strategy.

Karfi said his commitment is to intervene in areas of water resources, healthcare management as well as education. He added that the fund has recently conducted training for 306 primary school teachers across the state to enhance teaching and learning.

“We invited some consultants to come and train the youth drawn from the three senatorial districts of the state. The training was to complement the efforts of the state and Federal Government to create jobs for the youth to become self-employed. Interestingly, among the trainees was a graduate of PhD where we showcased him to be a role model to the participants,” he said.

“We recently trained over 400 youths across the state in digital and marketing strategy. We may also intervene in areas of water resources, healthcare, and management as well as education.

“We recently conducted training for 306 primary school teachers across the state to enhance teaching and learning. My advice to the participants is to be hopeful and dedicated and have an interest in what they pursue. Basically, there are three qualities we want from the participants. These are integrity, commitment, and the ability to understand what they are trying to do.”
