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.

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.
