allscho At the Lagos State Cooperative College’s second convocation in Agege, Governing Council Chairman Oyebowale Raji challenged graduates to drive national growth by applying their education to strengthen Nigeria’s cooperative and enterprise sectors.
Raji emphasized the importance of using their acquired knowledge to fuel economic and social development. Provost Akorede Ojomu praised the graduates’ resilience, noting their potential to positively shape society.
Keynote speaker Dr. Olusegun Dada highlighted that over 32.9 million nano businesses form 85.55% of Nigeria’s informal sector, yet few succeed due to poor funding, skills, and governance.
