Nigerian Firm Trains Corps Members in Non-Oil Exports

Zeenab Foods Limited and its subsidiary, the Nigerian Exporters Hub (NEXHUB), have successfully completed a three-day training program for Batch A Stream 1 National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) members across the country.

The program aimed to equip the participants with the necessary skills to engage in non-oil exports, thereby contributing to Nigeria’s economic development.

The training provided valuable insights into identifying profitable export opportunities, navigating the export process, and unlocking financial potential.

Mrs Nwatarali Ngozi Dorathy, the Director of NYSC Skill Acquisition and Entrepreneurship Development (SAED), emphasized the importance of empowering young Nigerians with the skills to engage in non-oil exports, as it not only provides alternative sources of income but also reduces the country’s dependence on oil revenues.

Since its inception in 2022, NEXHUB’s training program has made a significant impact, empowering over 2.2 million youth corps members.

A representative of NEXHUB stated that their goal is to equip young Nigerians with the tools and knowledge needed to succeed in the global marketplace.

Corps members who participated in the training expressed their appreciation for the program, with one saying, “This training has opened my eyes to the immense opportunities available in the non-oil export sector.

I now feel equipped to explore these opportunities and contribute to Nigeria’s economic growth.”

By investing in the youth and providing them with the necessary training, Nigeria is taking a step forward in diversifying its economy and reducing its reliance on oil revenues.

As more and more young Nigerians are empowered with the skills to engage in non-oil exports, the country can expect to see a significant boost in its economic growth and development.
