Worried by the continuous rise in the unemployment rate in
Nigeria, a group of concerned Nigerians has come up with an idea of bridging
the gap between the industry and the classroom saying this will further open
many to gainful employment and other opportunities.
Speaking at a media briefing on Education, Nexus, Industry, Project,
(ENIPRO), the Convener, Jesse Ogabu stated that the essence of the initiative
is to transform the lives of young people through recruitment opportunities as
well as creating a foundation through the newly designed academy which will
help reposition our youth and make them industry friendly.
“Today, information Technology has taken over the industry
creating opportunities for only those who are ready to add value to the
industry which gave birth to the theme of discussion for the proposed 2.0
Enipro Summit which is Workplace/classroom: The future of work, local content, an
inclusive strategy scheduled to hold on the 11th of April at the
University of Lagos Main Auditorium”,Ogabu noted.
The summit will have in Attendance Prof. Pat Utomi, Fatai
Folarin, Tope Fasua and a host of other captains of industry while Jobber-man and
Poise Nigeria had also shown interest by creating opportunities for recruitment
as well as polishing institute for graduates who still needs to learn the
industry language.
The head of Enipro Academy, Afolakemi Ogunnusi stated that
job place is a translation of what is learnt in the classroom which many youths
today finds it difficult to effectively replicate explaining that enipro
Academy has come up with solutions to effectively tackle that by putting our
young graduates back on the right track.
She also advise Students, Graduates, Corps members and
Unemployed youths to take advantage of the initiatives and launch into a world
of opportunities
