Emir of Zazzau, Ambassador Ahmed Nuhu Bamalli, has stressed the need for Nigerians to embrace skills acquisition as a prerequisite for national development.
He spoke at the commissioning ceremony of the entrepreneurship skills acquisition centre and a twin lecture theatre in Zaria and Kaduna.
He said, “Strategic investment in human capital is key to the development of any nation and that is why I am always preaching for entrepreneurship and for us to graduate from rent-seeking jobs.”
He then commended the Director General of the Nigerian Maritime Administration and Safety Agency (NIMASA), Dr Bashir Jamoh, for sponsoring 2,500 young people at the Maritime Training Institute, noting that he has empowered them for life.
