UNEMPLOYMENT STATISTICS

The current spate of hopelessness in the unemployment of the teeming youthful population 33.3% calls for urgent attention of government at various levels. The poverty rate of 68%, 88 million people (Brookings Institution) in a population of 198million currently highest in the world making Nigeria capital of poverty in the entire world with extremely poor people living below $1.90 a day. The number of extreme poverty people has increased to 6 people per minute while in four months 1.1million people are slipping into extreme poverty. This unacceptable scenario is an indictment on failure of governance and particularly in the family unit.

CORE WORKING GROUP

The resultant abysmally low rating of HUMAN DEVELOPMENT INDEX (HDI) call for genuine concern . HDI is a direct reflection on Education, Health and Welfare status of the citizens. S/W of Nigeria’s HDI was 38% as at October 2018.imagine what will be recorded in more disadvantaged zones of the country.

Experiencing the depths of our poverty stricken situation should lead to life shaping decisions of developing our human resources, as was the case in China between 1990 – 2013 . China was involved in massive Construction to pull the poverty ravaged country out of extreme poverty. India with population of 1.324 billion exited her citizens from extreme poverty as well recently, the multiplier effect of even a few people in productivity of foods into value chains could have a positive reveberationnal effect on the society and the nation at large.

However, the Federal government of Nigeria maintain a pro – civil servant (2.4million only out of 198 miiion) inclination by meeting up with the recurrent expenditure of 3.494tillion out of the total budget of 9.12trillion Naira
In 2018.(Nov.2018) The debt – revenue ratio (federal govt) is 68% this is as a result of heavy borrowings in the last 3 years of this administration.

Please note that the impending debt trap especially from China may worsen the poverty threat which may drag the country into yet an untold future hardship.

The above social and economic indices is to inform you reading this piece that Nigeria may not exit the poverty range soon enough if the Human Capital development of the human resources in various sectors are ignored. Prime of these are the agroprenuerial and agroprocessing.in the six geo- political zone of Nigeria.

At various times non- governmental organizations such as Bill Gates foundation, Tony Elumelu foundation, Feeding the Future (US govt) and others had lent and given their voices to Human Capital Development of human resources.

WHY HUMAN CAPITAL DEVELOPMENT IN SUSTAINABLE FOOD SECURITY AND VALUE CHAIN DEVELOPMENT ?

A country with quality (empowered) population is poised to record higher developmental achievements in global ratings especially in the UN 2030 agenda on sustainable Food Security and Value Chain Development.

WUFAS AGR0Net a Human Capital Development Consultant in Food Processing Technology are into Capacity Building disseminating basic Food Processing principles and Operations to Startups and Entrepreneurs .training them to imbibe technical details that will ensure global competitiveness. Through Entrepreneurial/Empowerment Demonstrative Seminars in Ethics of Food Processing Technology eg ,water treatment, Q/C concept, preservation , packaging etc and Production Technology in all classes of food. eg Foods, Beverage, Dairy and Vegetables. Presently Nigeria is import dependent on all classes of foods.eg Rice, sweetener, Baking flour, Sugar, Dairy, Beverages etc.

The attitude of various intervention agencies in HUMAN CAPITAL DEVELOPMENT at Local , State, and Federal governments institutions leave much to be desired. In most cases, less endowed cronies are being patronised in preference to qualified and experienced stakeholders, in most cases trainees are left to foot their bills rather than encouraging and motivating them to learn.

In order that the Federal effort in Human Capital Development is not tharwted by few bureaucrats extensive audits of Human Capital Development Consultants should be carried out to ascertain and ensure adequate Technological Transfer by passionate HCDConsultants. Such that assigned budgetary approval for the purpose is well managed.

In Nigeria of today , HCDev. must be taken to the youths by motivating them even by gratifications rather than asking them to pay.

At WUFAS AGR0Net, we see the inadequacies in the UN 2030 agenda in achieving Sustainable Food Security And Value chain development in Nigeria and seeing it differently, we believe it’s a hurdle that is surmountable as problems are best solved from outside the box it has put us in and thinking creatively, we automatically see novel and unusual ways over, under, around and through the hurdles of inadequacies hence our audacious stance and believe – resolving that with our previous experiences in most blue chips food industries, new possibilities must be exploited and even create new realities one of which is the Human Capital Development Consultancy we are into and with the collaboration of more formidable bodies within and outside Nigeria we can leap forward, we have already started as evidenced in our various interventions as seen below.
