Mr. Kayode Babade, Chairman of the Ekiti State Board for Technical and Vocational Education, has not relied on white-collar jobs. He made this statement on Thursday, June 19, 2025, in Ado-Ekiti, emphasising that embracing technical and vocational education is better than waiting for unavailable white-collar jobs. According to him, youths should maximise the available technical and vocational education, which will equip them with the right skills and independence.
“First of all, acquire a skill and then set up your job. You will be independent, fend for yourself, and have flexible time to work and earn a living. So, our major focus in the Board for Technical and Vocational Education is to train Ekiti youths, give them marketable skills that can make them self-reliant for their family and others,” he said.
