The maiden lecture on Leadership Development of GOTNI in partnership with National Youth Corps (NYSC) kicked off yesterday at the NYSC Camp in Kubwa Abuja. This GOTNI-NYSC partnership is supposed to mark the commencement of a new phase of value addition to the NYSC program which is a mandatory training exercise for all graduate participants.
This initiative will focus on teaching the youths on development of their leadership skills, eschew corrupt practices and capitalise on their strengths, morals and integrity to actualize their growth and personal boost needed to make Nigeria stand out in the world.
The leadership training is not restricted to the NYSC camp Abjua alone but extends to NYSC camps across the entire 36 states of the federation.
The NYSC boss, Brig. Gen J.B Olawumi represented by Mrs Bose Okakwu, the state Co-ordinator FCT, Pastor Olanipekun Alao among other distinguished NYSC officials were present to show their support and commitment to the transformation of the youths.
Mr Linus Okorie, President, Guardians of the Nation International, delivered an exciting and energy-filled lecture that carried the corps members along making them see a Nigeria that can be changed for a better tomorrow. His primary focus was the re-orientation of the mind and improvement of the individual.
It is imperative to begin the transformation of Nigeria from the youths and this partnership with the NYSC is a giant step in that direction.
It was quite encouraging that after the lectures, many corps members took a step further in showing their commitment for change by asking to be mentored personally by Mr Linus Okorie and becoming members of GOTNI.
We are optimistic that the seed being sown today will rob off hugely on the social status and across all sectors of the next generation to come.
Ultimately, we are grateful to have this partnership with the NYSC and we remain steadfast in our commitment to see a transformed Nigeria.
