AIM OF ESTABLIISHING THE COLLEGE:

The Director and like minds around him observed the yawning gap in Nigeria education system. They noted that the present education system is not technical oriented. That if secondary school leavers learnt trades in schools they would be self-employed after school. That this will help to minimize the joblessness and crime wave in the society. Based on the above conviction, the Director established this Technical/vocational College to train the students to use their hands.
