Kano State Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf proudly reopened the recently renovated Kano State Horticulture and Livestock Institutes, proving his administration’s commitment to reducing youth unemployment and empowering young people with valuable skills.

The event was marked by the presentation of 340 admission letters to new students, all eager to develop expertise in agriculture and environmental health—fields that are vital to Kano’s economy and society.

Governor Yusuf emphasized the significance of these institutions, which have been designed to equip young people with practical knowledge and reduce redundancy among the youth.

The Horticulture Institute, now fully upgraded, will focus on training students in the beautification of Kano’s landscape and the broader health of its environment.

Horticulture plays a crucial role not only in aesthetics but also in promoting green spaces that improve air quality, reduce temperatures, and enhance the well-being of communities.

For the students, this institute offers more than environmental knowledge; it opens a career path in an industry with increasing demand for experts in landscaping, nursery management, and sustainable agriculture practices.

The Livestock Institute, meanwhile, will train around 140 students in various aspects of animal agriculture, including ram fattening, animal husbandry, and meat quality improvement.

These skills directly tie into Kano’s agricultural sector, which relies heavily on livestock farming.

By teaching modern techniques in animal care and product quality, the institute aims to raise standards across the livestock industry, providing better opportunities for graduates and strengthening Kano’s role in Nigeria’s agricultural economy.

Such training will also empower students to venture into entrepreneurship, contributing to the local economy while meeting the demand for high-quality meat and dairy products.

Governor Yusuf encouraged the students to make the most of this opportunity, noting that the skills they acquire have the potential to transform their lives and bring financial stability to their families.

He emphasized that these institutes represent his administration’s vision for a better, more self-sustaining Kano, where young people are equipped to take on roles that benefit the state.

The governor also assured that this initiative is only the beginning, promising continued efforts to expand educational and vocational opportunities for Kano’s youth.

“It is my profound assurance that our administration is committed to expanding opportunities for young people in the state, laying the foundation for a better society,” he stated.

This emphasis on skills-based education reflects a nationwide shift towards more practical, career-focused learning that prepares students to step directly into industries needing fresh talent.
