The National Directorate of Employment (NDE) has started an orientation and revalidation exercise for beneficiaries of the RHEI 3 programme in Oyo State. This initiative aims to ensure the effective implementation of the programme across the state's three senatorial districts. The exercise provides beneficiaries with essential information about the programme, including its objectives, requirements, and available opportunities.

The orientation and revalidation exercise was officially kicked off with a sensitization session for beneficiaries. During the session, they were informed about the importance of active participation, discipline, commitment, and compliance with the programme's guidelines. The revalidation process is designed to verify the beneficiaries' details, ensuring that only eligible persons participate in the programme.

The NDE's Director-General, Silas Ali Agara, emphasized the significance of the exercise. Although he was not present at the event, his representative, NDE Coordinator in Oyo State, Mr. Oke Paul Adegboye, attended on his behalf.

Officials from the NDE's four core programme departments participated in the exercise. They urged beneficiaries to take advantage of the training and support offered under RHEI 3. The programme is designed to improve participants' prospects for sustainable livelihoods and employment by providing them with relevant skills.

The exercise brought together beneficiaries, trainers, stakeholders, and officials from various NDE departments. These departments include the Small Scale Enterprises Department, Vocational Skills Development Department, Rural Employment Promotion Department, and Special Public Works Department. The collaboration aims to ensure a comprehensive approach to the programme's implementation.

The NDE reaffirmed its commitment to the successful implementation of RHEI 3. The organization aims to ensure that beneficiaries derive maximum value from the intervention. Participants were also encouraged to be good ambassadors of the programme, promoting its objectives and benefits.

The orientation and revalidation exercise marks a crucial step in the implementation of RHEI 3 in Oyo State.
