Government has urged the youth in the country to be innovative and establish their own businesses as a way of contributing to the development of the country.
Deputy Minister for Youth and Child Development, Mundia Ndalamei reiterated that government would always supplement the efforts of young people who are industrious.
Mr. Ndalamei said government will continue to provide grants to youths, whom he said were the most productive personnel, in order to promote their programmes in the country.
He said this in Lusaka today after a familiarization tour of Kalingalinga Youth Resource Centre.
He was accompanied by Maynard Misapa, who is in charge of sports in the same ministry.
And Kalingalinga Youth Resource Centre Principal Ben Sambambi said the institution was determined to offer skills to youths in Lusaka.
Mr. Sambambi said the institution trains a total of 300 students every year in entrepreneurship courses such as food production, carpentry and joinery, tailoring, and computer courses.
