ADDRESSING YOUTH UNEMPLOYMENT IN REMOLAND
BACKGROUND
THE REMO CHALLENGE
- Due to our proximity to Lagos, we have a hugely significant and underemployed youth population;
- We also have some of the leading Universities – BABCOCK UNIVERSITY in Ilisan, a new university – ADETOKUNBO UNIVERSITY and OLABISI ONABANJO UNIVERSITY in Sagamu within Remo Division;
- These schools are both further poles of attraction for increased youth presence and potentially intellectual resources for youth engagement.
- In order to successfully engage the youths, we are proposing a twin strategy centered around VOCATIONAL SKILLS ACQUISITION & ENTREPRENURIAL SKILLS DEVELOPMENT.
