Acquisition of Technical Skills as a Strategy for Addressing Youth Restiveness in Niger State, Nigeria

Technical

In Nigeria, youth restiveness has become a hot topic for discussion in the social, economic, and political realms. It is a fact that a restive youth population in Niger State will prevent the state from thriving and progressing significantly. Because of the frequency of this problem, Nigeria's peace, security, and corporate existence as a nation are jeopardized. Unemployment, a lack of basic and inadequate infrastructure, and poor social amenities are among the causes of youth restlessness, as are a lack of technical skills to engage them in becoming self-reliant. Technical abilities serve as the foundation for future science teaching and learning at all levels of education. The low number of autonomous or self-sufficient adolescents in science and technology from higher education institutions indicates that there are little or no skills teaching in science and technology, which has raised a lot of concern. Science and technology are constantly reducing the world to a global village. As a result, it is necessary to mobilize as many youngsters as possible, as well as teachers, to learn and impart science skills. As a result, this article emphasizes the importance of various talents and interests in tackling youth restiveness in Niger State. It covers skills acquisition methodologies, how to demonstrate such talents, how to persuade adolescents to learn science and technological skills, and how to assist youths in practicing their new skills. There are suggestions on how stakeholders might participate in the crusade that is so important for youths.
