According to him, people with creative minds are special human beings and as such ,have the ability to put things on paper and translate it into reality that can be touched and felt.

“I’m excited that this young boys who have just completed their secondary school education, have creativity and natural gift in them- what else can I use my office to do – rather than to help them nurture their dreams to become what they want to become in life.

“That is why I invited them to the institute to award them a full scholarship to develop their skills that in future can be used to take this country to another level.

“It is obvious that no nation can develop without skill acquisition in the area of technology, and I’m happy because I was able to catch them young and in the next two years I will help them to develop their skill in auto mechanic , electrical and welding.

” It is also a fact that paper qualification is not enough for a graduate to survive in the 21st century, therefore as a graduate you should learn special skills that will give you an edge in the society.

“Here in the institute, we have programmes that are tailored for graduates who want to have special skill. We also have National Diploma Certificate approved by the NBTE . Any smart graduate will take advantage of this institute” He assured.
Speaking further, he disclosed that the graduates of the institution have nothing to do with unemployment as they are sought for by industries and corporate Organizations.

He called on politicians and Corporate organizations and governments to beam their searchlights on young people who have natural skill like this three students we gave scholarship to come to undertake life transformation courses offered by the Institute.

He explained that, the mandate of the school was not to generate revenue, but , to Principally stem the tide of unemployment, and to build the capacity of the youths to have a better society.
While assuring the government of its capacity to produce industry minded graduates to reduce incidence of unemployment and curb restiveness, called for massive financial resources to achieve its mandate.

Speaking on behalf of the beneficiaries, Emeje Samson,29 years old said he got the inspiration from his childhood as he often constructs his innovation with ease .
He thanked the NKFI for the gesture and optimistic of realising their dreams.

Meanwhile, Principal of the college, Zakari Jonah, commended the institute for the scholarship and promised to create awareness among secondary school students to embrace the school to further their academic pursuits.

He added that these three students were participants in the 2022 Science Exhibition where they showcased their manufactured SUV car, trucks and tricyle stressing that some officials of the institute were in attendance, who took special interest on the students.
