The National Productivity Centre on Tuesday lectured the 2011 Batch ‘B’ corps members nationwide on improved productivity.
In Abuja, the centre’s Director of Information, Dr. Rekiya Momoh Abdulkadir, tasked the corps members at their orientation camp in Kubwa on the need to develop their skills and potentials in order to make them develop the communities they are posted to serve.
She said Nigerian youths, aged between 18 and 35 have grown from 22.5 million to over 25% of the Nigerian population and form about 59% of the productively active group.
She said skills are needed to contribute to a modern economy and advised youths to feel safe physically and emotionally to develop quality relationship with peers and adults.
One of the corps members, Akanor Ngozi, commended the lecture and said it will make her use her initiative to improve her life.
