Executive Director, Kukah Centre, Father Attah Barkindo, stated this in Yola during the presentation of empowerment kits to 100 beneficiaries trained in eight different skills that include beauty and make up; making of household items like liquid soap, shampoo and vaseline jelly; baking and confectioneries, shoe making, fish farming and tailoring from Wuro-Jabbe community.
