Around 330 youths have been trained in music production, audio engineering and entrepreneurship in Plateau State by a Jos-based music producer Istifanus Pankyes.

Pankyes himself revealed this to the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) on Sunday in Jos.

He, however, lamented the high cost of musical equipment in the country.

“Musical equipment are very costly; most of the trained youths are very talented, but they are yet to find resources to start up a studio.

“Most of these youths are only looking for sponsors and investors to brave their way into this capital intensive venture; if they can get a little push, the sky will be their limit,” he said.

Pankyes said that he would train “at least 1000 youths this year” and solicited for funds to enable them start up their businesses.

The winner of king of music 2007, JOGAMA awards producer of the year 2016, Afro hip hop song of the year 2019, among others, said diligence was his watch word.
