“The federal government is really making a serious impact in addressing unemployment issues in the country.

Mr Yaya identified Nirsal Microfinance Bank of the CBN as another outfit helping and assisting unemployed youths to become employers of labour.
“If you look at the Bank of Agriculture, they are also our partner in progress.
“Some NDE trainees who could not get loans from the directorate were linked with the bank, and they are accessing loans from there,’’ he said.
He advised beneficiaries of the different federal government interventions to optimise opportunities given to them.
