Dr. Mohammed Aminu Mohammed runs Nigeria's National Business and Technical Examinations Board. He believes technical and vocational training will transform the country completely. The government wants to reduce focus on paper certificates and help people learn practical skills instead. Mohammed supervised entrance tests for 30,000 students applying to technical colleges across Nigeria. He visited several schools in Minna, Niger State during these important exams.

Countries like China, Singapore, and Dubai succeed because they prioritize hands-on training programs. These nations thrive even with challenging conditions because their people have useful skills. Nigeria could achieve similar success if more citizens learned practical trades and crafts. The COVID pandemic showed everyone that depending solely on office jobs creates problems. People need multiple ways to make money and support themselves without waiting for government positions.

Current graduates lack the practical abilities needed in today's job market. Having advanced degrees means nothing if you cannot contribute real value to society. Technical education teaches people to fix cars, build furniture, and handle construction work. Indonesia requires all graduates to complete one year of skill training regardless of their university background. This approach creates a workforce ready to tackle any challenge and build a stronger economy.
