About 300 skilled, semi-skilled and unskilled youths from the Niger Delta region of Nigeria have begun a two-week specialised capacity building workshop on trending skills in the petroleum industry.

The two weeks capacity building workshop for Niger Delta youths on petroleum engineering technology-related skills taking place at Petroleum Training Institute, PTI, Effurun in Delta State is being anchored by Ufugold Projects Services Limited in conjunction with the petroleum institute to empower youths of the region with skills that will put them ahead in the petroleum industry.

In his welcome address at the opening ceremony held at the PTI Conference Centre, Effurun, the Principal of the  Petroleum Training Institute, Effurun, Dr Henry Adimula, charged the trainees to maximize the best out of the workshop as it offers them the opportunity to be self-reliant, entrepreneurs and future employers of labour.

Dr Adimola noted that the two weeks of specialized capacity building which is fully funded by the Federal Government through the Ministry of Petroleum Resources is one of the ways the government is using to take the youths out of poverty.

He noted that professionals have been carefully selected to expose the trainees to modern petroleum engineering technology-related skills throughout the duration of the workshop.

For his part, the chairman, Ufugold Project Services limited, Hon Ufuoma Johngold, expressed delight over the commencement of the training which he likened to a breath of fresh air going by the high rate of unemployment in Nigeria.

Hon. Johngold who lamented over the mindset of present-day youths who engage in fraudulent activities to make a living, challenged the trainees to seize the opportunity to make an honest living.
