"Today's graduation ceremony is important to me as it's marks the third graduation ceremony on skill acquisition powered by the Nigerian Armed Forces Resettlement Centre in conjunction with the iCARE Foundation initiative. 

"I am reasonably aware of the tight programme you were all subjected to during the course of your training. I am also aware that the tight schedule of your training was aimed at making you gain considerably within the short period earmarked for your training.

"I personally believe that graduation ceremony is a landmark in the life of every graduand as it marks the end of a formal training and skill acquisition phase and propels them into an opportunity phase where they seek to take advantage of their new knowledge and skills to make a difference in the world around them. 

"You have successfully completed this course amidst tight schedules, this shows your commitment and resilience which are all attributes of your sound situational awareness in our dear country. You must think of a new way to tackle the problem of unemployment and lack of jobs caused by the devastating effect of the Covid-19 Pandemic. 

"You must acquire the necessary entrepreneurial skills to live a self-sustaining life amidst the global economic challenges. Let me emphasize that the Skill Acquisition Training is to position you to remain relevant and stand competitive in the open market. I therefore urge you all to be bold, courageous, focus, financially disciplined and above all, beware of these criminals in all your business engagements," Benson remarked.

He further commended and thanked the Commandant for empowering those placed under his charge. "Indeed, there is no better way of discharging the Centre's Cooperate Social Responsibility than engaging our youths on a skill acquisition training in order to make them live a fulfilling life," Benson added.
