The Commissioner of Business Innovation and Technology, Mrs Patience Fakai, has said that Governor Uba Sani’s efforts to make Kaduna State the skills hub of the nation, is one of the ways of tackling youth unemployment.

Mrs Fakai said that Kaduna State Government is constructing three world class Vocational and Technology Skills Acquisition Cities, with one in each senatorial zone, pointed out that tackling youth unemployment requires a holistic and collaborative approach.

The Commissioner made this known at the 2025 edition of the Jobberman Career Fair that was organized at the weekend, adding that the challenge of youth unemployment is not new.

She however argued that ‘’it is imperative to think critically on developing integrated youth employment strategies that addresses job creation and helping youth transition into reputable and decent work roles.’’

Mrs Fakai reminded the participants that the Career Fair ‘’reflects a powerful partnership between government, the private sector, and educational institutions aimed at empowering our youth and supporting our economic ambitions. ‘’

She recalled that the maiden edition of the Career Fair which held on the 23rd of November, 2023, recorded a significant milestone, with ‘’a total of 1,496 unemployed youth with 71 representatives of employers of labour in attendance and over 300 job placements have been secured to date and still counting. ‘’

The Commissioner noted that this year’s edition of Jobberman Kaduna Career Fair ‘2025 is themed “Meet – Connect – Get Hired,’’ just as she expressed optimism that the programme will succeed in addressing the challenges of youth unemployment.

According to her, the success of the programme is hinged on employers of labour, career placement organizations, and training providers, remaining committed to the implementation strategies.

Mrs Fakai reminded employers that they are the backbone of economic growth, adding that their willingness to invest in talent will empower ‘’ not just for those you hire, but for the entirety of Kaduna State.’’

The Commissioner told the job seekers that the Fair provides an ‘’opportunity to showcase your skills, your creativity, and your passion. It is a moment to engage, learn, and grow.’’

‘’ Remember that each interaction here is a step toward realizing your potential and securing your future. Your careers do not only serve your personal growth but are integral to the progress of our beloved state,’’ she added.

She also commended Jobberman for ‘’orchestrating such a vital initiative, connecting thousands of hopefuls with their potential careers and contributing to bridging the employment gap in Nigeria. ‘’
