Community Empowerment for Sustainable Development is my priority. In the past few months, I have given myself fully to the quest of empowering my community women and youth in the lower cadre of the society to help them break the barriers that limit them economically. This week, I kicked off a two week vocational skills training in Ajah Lagos State.

The project: ”WHAT HAND CAN DO TO MAKE MONEY ”is an economic empowerment program aimed at reducing the unemployment rate and eradicating poverty of business ideas. I was invited by RCCG to empower their members, and by referral they arranged for the people to attend. I gave them the cost estimate of all I will need and they paid for it. The church did the advertising but invited me to facilitate.

The program had 70 participants including women and men where they learnt how to make various  confectioneries.
