500 Nigerian inmates receive vocational training to reduce poverty and unemployment, with grants upon completion.
The Nigerian presidency has begun training 500 inmates in each correctional center across the country as part of a plan to reduce poverty and unemployment. Inmates will receive vocational training in sectors such as fashion, IT, soap-making, and fishing, and will be granted N500,000 ($1,130) upon completion to start a business. This initiative aims to address the 133 million people living in poverty in Nigeria.
