The National Directorate of Employment (NDE) has commissioned a block of classrooms for an Islamiyya school built for teaching of Islamic Education to install religious education in the minds of youths.
In her opening speech at the ceremony, the Director General of NDE, Malam Abubakar Nuhu Fikpo, represented by Mrs Mary Ndirpaya, Director of Finance and Account, harped on the core objectives of engaging and utilising the talent of both skills and unskilled unemployed members of our host community.
Fikpo pointed out that by doing so, “we not only address pressing infrastructure needs but provide opportunities to acquire new skills and gain work experience as our approach emphasizes on labour-intensive methods.
“This collaborative effort between the NDE and the host community has already yielded impressive results in Kebbi State as we have successfully completed one block of the classroom for Islamiyya studies in Kalgo Local Government Area.
“As we move forward, let us continue to build on these successes and strive towards even greater achievements, to ensure that the labour-based and infrastructural development scheme continues to bring positive change to our community.”
In his remarks, the Kebbi State Coordinator of the NDE, Mr Francis Ambianto Amos, stressed that the construction of the school is aimed at inculcating the teaching of religious attributes and ideas in the minds of the teeming youths across the society.
Ambianto Amos is optimistic that the school will change the minds and lives of the youths if religious education teaching takes place in the school which will not allow them to indulge themselves in social vices.
“Because of the importance attached to the school project, the Director of Finance and Account at the headquarters had travelled all the way from Abuja on behalf of the Director General to commission this project,” he stated
He stated further that with this school in place, their minds will go into skills acquisition instead of indulging in stealing, burglaries and other related social vices.
