 NIGERIA & UK PARTNER ON YOUTH SKILLS TRAINING-SCRIPTOVER

The partnership will involve Federal Technical Colleges, the national board for technical education, and other agencies to support joint curriculum development, staff exchanges, accreditation alignment, and skills matching with both countries agreeing on plans for uk skills institutions to visit nigeria to co-develop programmes.


The engagement also prioritises raising the status of TVET through industry recognition and clearer career progression pathways, drawing from reforms under skills england. 


Dr. Alausa, as a member of the global partnership for education board, urges continued UK support for the GPE 2026–2030 replenishment campaign, which Nigeria will co-host with italy during the UN general assembly in september 2026, 


Baroness Smith commends Nigeria’s reforms and pledges to advocate sustained UK support.
