Acquisition of technical skills key to national development, says ITF

The Director-General of the Industrial Training Fund (ITF), Joseph Ari, has identified the acquisition of technical skills as key to the realisation of Nigeria’s national development plans.

According to a statement yesterday by the fund’s Head of Public Affairs, Mrs. Suleyol Fred Chagu, the ITF boss stated this while presenting a paper titled: “The Place of Skills in National Development: The ITF Perspective”, at the 11th National Council on Industry in Uyo, Akwa Ibom State.

He described skills and national development as Siamese twins.
