ITF Empowers 25M Nigerians for Self-Dependence in Diverse Skills

The Industrial Training Fund (ITF) in Nigeria, led by Dr. Afiz Oluwatoyin Ogun, has empowered 25 million Nigerians with various skills to achieve self-dependence. Celebrating its 45th anniversary, ITF's flagship program, the Skill Upgrading for Artisans (SUPA), has retooled and certified artisans to meet international standards and compete in local and global markets.

The program has already certified thousands of artisans in sectors like electrical installation, tiling, plumbing, ICT, fashion design, and project management. ITF's initiative aims to create a workforce capable of driving industrial transformation and ensuring Nigeria's industrial sector remains competitive.
