YABATECH EMPOWERS YOUNG LEARNERS WITH SUBSIDISED SUMMER SKILLS TRAINING

Under my leadership, Yaba College of Technology (YABATECH) continues to prioritise practical education, skills development and youth empowerment as key pillars of our institutional transformation agenda.

As part of the College’s Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR), we have commenced subsidised Skills Development Training programmes for primary and secondary school students during the summer holidays.

Three specialised skills hubs within the College are participating, offering a diverse range of practical and creative skills designed to help young learners discover their talents and develop useful competencies from an early age.

This initiative reflects our commitment to extending the impact of YABATECH beyond the classroom and contributing meaningfully to the development of the next generation.

I encourage parents and guardians to take advantage of these opportunities for their wards. Details of the available programmes and participation are contained in the accompanying flyers.

We are not only educating for today; we are equipping the leaders, innovators and entrepreneurs of tomorrow.

On this auspicious occasion of Democracy Day, I extend warm greetings to the entire staff, students, alumni, and stakeholders of Yaba College of Technology, as well as all Nigerians at home and in the diaspora.

Democracy remains the foundation upon which national development, justice, peace, and collective progress are built. As we commemorate this important day, we are reminded of the sacrifices of our heroes past and the shared responsibility we all bear in sustaining the ideals of freedom, unity, accountability, and good governance.

At Yaba College of Technology, we remain committed to nurturing responsible, innovative, and patriotic citizens who will contribute meaningfully to national growth and global advancement. As Nigeria continues on its democratic journey, I encourage our students and youths to remain hopeful, resilient, and actively engaged in nation-building through education, innovation, and positive leadership.

Let us continue to uphold the values of tolerance, dialogue, integrity, and peaceful coexistence as we work together towards a more prosperous and inclusive Nigeria.

Happy Democracy Day.

I wish to profoundly appreciate the Federal Government of Nigeria under the leadership of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and the Honourable Minister of Education, Maruf Tunji Alausa, for this impactful and forward-looking initiative that has provided students across tertiary institutions in Nigeria with access to world-class digital skills training and international certification opportunities. By fully sponsoring the AWS CloudFoundation training and certification examinations, the Federal Government has once again demonstrated a strong commitment to youth empowerment, digital transformation, and the development of globally competitive graduates for the 21st-century economy.

It therefore gives me immense pride and joy to congratulate all our students of Yaba College of Technology who successfully earned the AWS CloudFoundation Certification. This achievement is a testament to their dedication, resilience, and readiness to embrace the opportunities of the digital age. Beyond strengthening their technical competence in cloud computing, this globally recognised certification has significantly enhanced their employability, industry relevance, and career prospects. The integration of the certification into their Mandatory Skill Qualification (MSQ) requirements further reflects our institution’s commitment to practical, industry-driven, and future-focused education.

These successes also affirm the vision behind the establishment of the YABATECH Digital Technology Academy, which was created to equip our students with globally relevant digital competencies beyond the traditional classroom setting. I equally commend Mr. Amos Alade and our AWS Educators for their dedication, mentorship, and coordination throughout the programme. To all our certified students, you have made YABATECH proud and have shown that Nigerian youths can excel globally when given the right opportunities and support. The future is indeed bright for you all.

I am delighted by the recognition accorded to our institution through the recent visit of the Government of Canada, UNICEF and Generation Unlimited to our Girls' Education and Skills Partnership (GESP) Hub. This visit underscores the impact of our collective efforts in empowering young women with technical, digital and entrepreneurial skills that prepare them for meaningful participation in the modern economy. I congratulate the thousands of beneficiaries whose determination and commitment have transformed opportunities into tangible success stories.

Their achievements reaffirm our conviction that Nigeria's youth are among our greatest assets. At YABATECH, we remain committed to creating an enabling environment where talent is nurtured, innovation is encouraged and dreams are translated into reality. Seeing young women confidently excel in fields such as web development, mobile technology, computer maintenance and digital innovation is both inspiring and a testament to the power of strategic partnerships and quality technical education.

As we look ahead to the College's 80th anniversary, this milestone serves as a reminder of our responsibility to continue expanding access to relevant skills, mentorship and opportunities for the next generation. I sincerely appreciate the Government of Canada, UNICEF, Generation Unlimited and all our partners for their unwavering support. Together, we are not only transforming lives but also building a future where every young person has the opportunity to learn, lead and succeed.

On behalf of the Management, Academic Board, Staff, Students, and the entire Yaba College of Technology community, I extend our profound appreciation and commendation to the Honourable Minister of Education, Dr. Maruf Tunji Alausa, for his visionary leadership and unwavering commitment to transforming Nigeria’s education sector.

We are particularly delighted by the landmark partnership announced at the Education World Forum 2026 in London for the establishment of the Digital Training Academy (DTA), an initiative that will provide Nigerian youths with globally competitive digital skills in Artificial Intelligence, Data Science, Cybersecurity, Cloud Computing, Software Engineering, and other emerging fields. The Federal Government’s strategic investment in fully funding 36,000 training licences demonstrates a bold and practical commitment to human capital development and the future of Nigerian youths.

Yaba College of Technology is deeply honoured to be selected as one of the key implementing institutions for this transformative programme. This recognition further reinforces the College’s longstanding reputation as a leading institution for technological education, innovation, and workforce development in Nigeria.

Your dedication to advancing Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET), digital transformation, and industry-relevant education continues to position Nigeria competitively within the global knowledge economy. This initiative aligns strongly with the national aspiration of equipping young Nigerians with the skills, competencies, and certifications required to thrive in an increasingly digital world.

As a foremost institution of higher learning, Yaba College of Technology remains fully committed to supporting the successful implementation of the Digital Training Academy and contributing meaningfully to the realization of the Federal Government’s education reform agenda.

We commend your exemplary leadership, innovative vision, and steadfast pursuit of excellence in education. We pray for continued wisdom, strength, and success as you lead the transformation of Nigeria’s education sector for sustainable national development.

The signing of the Memorandum of Understanding between Yaba College of Technology and Raotech IT Electro-mechanical Limited marks another defining moment in our collective journey towards technological advancement, innovation, and global relevance. This partnership, which will give birth to an Artificial Intelligence, Robotics and Innovation Hub, is not merely an institutional agreement; it is a strategic investment in the future of our students, our nation, and the evolving digital economy.

At YABATECH, we have remained committed to positioning the institution as a leading hub for research, innovation, entrepreneurship, and industry-driven education. The world is rapidly changing, and institutions that fail to embrace emerging technologies risk being left behind. Today, we are proud to take another bold step towards ensuring that our students are not just consumers of technology but creators, innovators, and solution providers capable of competing globally.

I commend Raotech IT Electro-mechanical Limited, under the leadership of Mr. Oluwadamilare Olanrewaju, for their visionary commitment to talent development and technological empowerment over the past fifteen years. Their passion for nurturing young innovators aligns perfectly with the aspirations of YABATECH. This collaboration will undoubtedly provide our students and staff with opportunities for hands-on learning, professional certifications, entrepreneurship development, internships, and exposure to real-world innovation ecosystems.

I also appreciate the efforts of our Centre for Linkages, Partnerships and International Relations, led by Dr. Moshood Ajala, for facilitating this impactful collaboration. Their dedication to building strategic partnerships continues to open new frontiers for institutional growth and academic excellence.

As we celebrate this milestone, I encourage all stakeholders — staff, students, industry partners, and the larger academic community — to embrace this initiative with enthusiasm and commitment. The future belongs to institutions and individuals who are prepared to innovate, collaborate, and adapt. With this AI and Robotics Innovation Hub, YABATECH is once again demonstrating its readiness to lead from the front.

Indeed, this is not just the beginning of a project; it is the beginning of a transformative era for technology education and innovation at Yaba College of Technology.

Dr. Ibraheem Abdul
Rector, Yaba College of Technology
