The Chairman, Esan Central Local Government Area, in his goodwill message to the Association, wrote: "The acquisition of technical/vocational skills is one sure way to guarantee livelihood for our children because, gone are the days when a school lever look up to the government for employment; rather, the informal sectors has become the greatest employers of labour."
