Please share
A non-governmental organisation, The Good Samaritan Foundation, has unveiled its plan to train youths in Loburo, Ogun State in vocational skills.
The founder of TGSF, Funmi Ademilua, explained that the vocational centre would develop human capital and empower unemployed youths in Loburo village.
Ademilua, in a meeting with community leaders and Nigeria’s High Commissioner to the United Kingdom, Sarafa Isola, said the NGO was committed to supporting people living in poverty and focused on those affected by conflict-induced crisis.
She said, “The project, which will kick-start fully from March 2022 with its foremost site at Loburo village in Ogun State, will help youths to learn valuable life skills, training and gain employment now and in the future. The project will also serve as a general human capital development and empowerment area for teeming unemployed youths in Loburo village.
“The high rate of unemployment coupled with the pressing issues of drug and substance abuse in the country has led many youths to a life of crime which is currently degrading national values and wreaking havoc to society.”
“The project as proposed to the ambassador aims to promote and improve the personal, social, and psychological development of youth to enable them to realise their potential as they journey into adulthood.”
Isola promised to support the efforts of TGSF in developing the proposed vocational centre in the community.
“My office will lend its support on acquiring proper documentation for the property proposed for the development of the vocational centre which is delayed and still under processing with the Ogun State Ministry of Lands since 2018,” he said.
