Ajimobi made this call at the flag off of the National Industrial Skills Development Programme (NISDP), organised by the Industrial Training Fund (ITF) at The Polytechnic Ibadan.
Represented by state Commissioner for Trade, Industry, Investment and Cooperatives, Princess Taibat Adeyemi-Agaba, Ajimobi especially noted that youths must be empowered to sustain industrial and economic development efforts of government.
He averred that Oyo state government will continue to engender industrialisation by opening up the state to investments and empowering its youths through the technical and vocational skills acquisition programmes.
Among other objectives, the national industrial skills development programme is aimed at imparting Nigerians with skills on development of cottage industries and the promotion of non-oil products for export and improved economy.
Ajimobi therefore charged the beneficiaries to take advantage of the skills acquisition programme in building a wealthy and prosperous nation.
