In this interview, Chilo-Offiah speaks on feats at the SME Centre, the novel e-YES initiative, among other empowerment schemes in the state.The SME Centre is all about job creation and empowerment.
The e-YES program is a partnership with Wild Fusion Limited, an IT firm, through its Digital Center, to up-skill hundreds in several certified digital marketing capacities. Governor Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi has the interest of the youths in mind and the initiative has been part of his critical human development projects.
Many youths from the state may be interested in the initiative. How do you ensure that those who really need it are engaged in the empowerment programme? At the agency, we have taken the radical step of identifying human capital as the most important sector for funding.
