The zone comprised Ekiti, Kwara, Osun, Lagos, Ondo and Kogi states. Represented by the Commissioner for Women Aff airs, Hajia Asiat Ayinke Saka, the governor's wife advised participants at the week-long camp to take advantage of the vocational training opportunities in the state. She said the Ministry of Women Aff airs had 22 diff erent trades "in which young girls can lay their hands in order to be successful mothers."
