Selected top entrepreneurs shared their business stories and urged students to take advantage of social media and tech to push their business to the global community.



Speaking with Yabatech Radio, Director, Centre for Entrepreneurship Development, Mr. Bolaji Cole disclosed that the centre isn’t only training students to be entrepreneurs but to also have good entrepreneurial skills as employees.
