The federal government weekend said that it would take skills acquisition and development to the internally displaced persons in their various communities across the country.
Speaking when the Industrial Training Fund, (ITF) commissioned the mobile training units/truck, alongside the unveiling of training programmes for internally displaced persons, (IDPs) in Abuja, minister of State for Industry, Trade and Investment, Hajia Aisha Abubakar, said the federal government was determined to achieve its job creation and youth empowerment programmes and would therefore work with the ITF to make it a reality.
She assured that President Muhammadu Buhari’s directives that all internally displaced persons be returned to their communities next year would be speedly carried out.
Lauding the leadership of the Fund for the initiative, she added that the move by the ITF, she would also create entrepreneurs, and sustainably empower women and youths who are the major victims of conflicts and internal disputes.
Speaking in the same vein, chairman of the House of Representatives Committee on Industry, Trade and Investments, Hon. Abubakar Moriki, said the choice of the IDPs in the flag off of the mobile training units by ITF was a right step in the right direction, because the majority of the affected people were mostly farmers who did not have the needed skills to survive in their new environment.
