The Federal Government is boosting Nigeria’s automotive sector by building more training centers for certified quality assurance assessors under the National Skills Qualification Framework (NSQF).

The Director-General, National Automotive Design and Development Council (NADDC), Mr Joseph Osanipin, represented by his Director, Industrial Infrastructure, Dr Nua Omisanya, made the disclosure over the weekend

Osanipin spoke at the official closing of a two week Quality Assurance Assessors Training for National Skills Qualifications (NSQs)

According to the director-general, the center will equip trainers who will ensure that automotive technicians across the country met nationally approved skill standards.

Osanipin said the training facilities would focus on areas such as Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) conversion, maintenance of Electric Vehicles (EVs), and modern diagnostic techniques.

“These are the new innovations in Nigeria’s automotive industry and we need more infrastructure and learning centers to be trained so that vehicles on our roads will be well-managed and well-maintained.Before the training, the industry had only 15 assessors, but the ongoing programme will add 30 more, raising the number to 45,” he said
