VC Yobe State University advises students to be self-reliant
Professor Mohammed Daura, the Vice Chancellor (VC) Yobe State University Damaturu, advised Students to always participate in skills acquisition programmes in order to be self reliant after graduation.
Daura made the call on Tuesday in Damaturu during a Students’ Summit organised by National Union of Yobe State Students (NUYOSS), titled: ‘Entrepreneurship for Sustainable Development.’
Daura represented at occasion by Dr. Bukar Jamri, the Deputy Vice Chancellor Central Administration, revealed that government had no capacity to accommodate all graduates in the civil service.
