Anambra state government says it will address youth restiveness and other challenges with the sum of 2.5 billion naira in one year of the present administration.
This was made known by the Commissioner for Youth Development,
Mr Patrick Agha-Mba, while defending the 2022 budget estimate of the Ministry before the Anambra State House of Assembly Committee on Youth and Development at the House of Assembly complex Awka, on Tuesday.
The Commissioner said this is in keeping with Governor Chukwuma Soludo’s promise and target of training and producing one thousand millionaires annually.
According to him, the selected youths will be trained in various entrepreneurial skills including aluminium, solar power, PVC ceiling installation, soap making, shoe making, confectionaries, among others.
