Abstract
Working with capability approach, the aim of the paper was to examine the proportion of early school levers who obtained employment after skills development. Drawing from a cross section design, descriptive survey methods through questionnaires as a tool supported the quantitative study. In-depth interviews supported the qualitative study. Statistical packages of social sciences supported the analysis. In so doing, it was established that many of them were working, but the quality of employment was low as well as a narrow outcome of capability. This paper thus recommends a practical empowerment to cause social change, universalisation of central human capabilities, with cultural relativism which forms a human rights perspective to improved quality of life and national competitiveness.
