The Special Adviser noted that the programme will help to expand opportunities in the area of entrepreneurship and enhance productivity.
In her address, the Director of Arts and Culture, Mrs. Saidat Otulana, stated that the creative industry has a cultural origin with the potential to generate wealth while creating millions of home-grown jobs, as well as enhancing the nation's capacity, thereby impacting positively on the economy.
Otulana noted that the annual workshop has proven to be an avenue to explore the prospects inherent in the creative industry in the State and implored the youths to seize the lifetime opportunity to continually improve on skills acquired by regularly upgrading themselves.
The workshop was introduced by the Council for Arts and Culture in 2015. This year's edition had participants trained by experts in specific fields namely tie and dye, batik fabric making, craft decor production, Ankara accessories making and natural cosmetics production.
