The Kano State Government has inaugurated a 10-man committee on resuscitate skills acquisition training institutes to address the effects of unemployment.

Inaugurating the committee, the Commissioner for Higher Education, Dr Yusuf Ibrahim Kofar Mata, explained that revitalising the training centres became imperative in view of their social, economic and security importance.

While tasking the members of the committee to justify the confidence reposed on them, Kofar Mata said, “The committee has the following terms of reference: to identify the number and locations of the institutes, to appraise the positions of the centres and provide viable recommendations, as well as recommend areas requiring rehabilitation, manpower and management structure to run the institutes seamlessly.
