FCE(T) EKIADOLOR HOLDS SECOND EDITION OF STUDENTS' PRODUCTS AND SERVICES EXHIBITION
Students of the Federal College of Education (Technical), Ekiadolor, Benin City, Edo State, showcased their entrepreneurial skills at the Second Edition of the Students' Products and Services Exhibition, held at the College Auditorium on Friday, 21st August 2026, at 11am.
The event, organised in partial fulfilment of course requirements for Entrepreneurship in Business Education II (BEE 320) and Introduction to Entrepreneurship Education (GSE 224), provided students with a practical platform to display, market and sell a wide range of products and services spanning food, clothing, electronics and other innovative items. The exhibition was coordinated by the course lecturer, Mr. Bisong Joshua.
The Registrar, Mrs. Ojapah Juliet, represented the College Provost, Dr. Lawrence Osagiede, at the event, which was attended by deans, directors, heads of departments, staff and students.
Declaring the exhibition open, Mrs. Ojapah, on behalf of the Provost, commended the students for their creativity and enterprise, describing the exhibition as a true reflection of the College's commitment to producing graduates who are not only academically sound but also self-reliant and equipped with practical, marketable skills.
By the close of the exhibition, participating students had sold out their products, in what organisers described as a remarkable demonstration of entrepreneurship in action.
Speaking on the significance of the exhibition, Mr. Bisong Joshua noted that it allowed students to move beyond the classroom and apply their creativity, innovation, marketing skills and business knowledge in practice, transforming ideas into products, products into sales, and sales into real entrepreneurial experience.
The exhibition reinforces the College's commitment to entrepreneurial and professional skills development as part of its academic programmes. Admission into the Federal College of Education (Technical), Ekiadolor, Benin City, is currently ongoing.
