The National Directorate of Employment (NDE) has disbursed resettlement items under the Community-Based Training Scheme (CBTS) in Kaduna.
The directorate said it will continue training youth through various skills acquisition programs in line with the federal government’s job creation agenda in the country.
The NDE Director-General, Malam Abubakar Nuhu Fikpo, represented by the Zonal Director of the directorate, Suleiman Ibrahim, said it is important for youth to learn to be self-independent.
According to him, the directorate is ever ready to render all necessary support to youth in the country.

He made the comments on Wednesday during the disbursement of Community-Based Training Scheme (CBTS) Resettlement Items organised by the directorate’s office in Kaduna.
He further advised the beneficiaries not to sell the items given to them; instead, they should be put to use.
According to him, it is important for the beneficiaries to practice what they learn during their 3-month training, saying doing so will make them self-dependent and employers of labour in the future.
Acting State Coordinator, Hajiya Halima Waziri, said about 46 beneficiaries will receive their resettlement items.
She explained further that the 46 people learned three skills, which include carpentry, aluminum formation, and fashion design.
