Femi Deru is a former president of the Lagos State Chamber of Commerce and Industry. In this interview with SIMON EJEMBI, he talks about issues relating to employment such as mismatch of skills

The International Labour Organisation recently published a report which says skills mismatch is affecting job creation. How does this happen?

Before you can have a skill, you must have gone through some training and that training requires you to have either been in a university – training to be X, Y, Z. If you are a doctor and you are looking for a job, you go to the hospital. If you are a specialist, for instance, there may be a mismatch for you because you may not get the type of job you need in Nigeria because of the special skill that you have got. That is an example of how the problem of a mismatch of skills may arise.
