Unyime Idem intensifies effort in human capital development

The 15th batch of Akwa Ibom youths under the sponsorship of Rt.Hon. Unyime Idem has departed Nigeria for China to undergo training on High-Quality Development of Sesame Industry as well as Community Building and Volunteer Services.

The all-expense paid training is in fulfilment of his promise to train 100 Akwa Ibom youths on relevant skills needed for optimum efficiency and global competitiveness.

The six (6) trainees are;

Imo Malachy Nkantion

Inimfon Dick Udoinyang

Ukeme Mfon Nelson

Stanley Sunday Peter

Alfred Elder Udofia

Goodnews Nse Thompson.

In a brief send forth ceremony, the Federal Lawmaker reminded them that the world is a global village and the need to be exposed to modern technology to be able to compete with their counterparts globally.

“To achieve this, I am targeting to train and equip a minimum of 100 Akwa Ibomites to be self-reliant and to be able to compete with their counterparts across the world. Wherever they have an opportunity to work, they will not lag behind.

I’ve taken this step because what is helping me today to do what I am able to do and achieve is the level of training and exposure I’ve garnered over the years across the globe, and it is my desire that they will do better than me”

The trainees are entitled to a travelling allowance while their experience will put them on a pedestal to compete favourably with counterparts across the globe.

The lawmaker urged the trainees to be of good conduct as an ambassador of Akwa Ibom state and the country, Nigeria.”

“I wish you a safe stay throughout the training period and journey mercies, to and from China. Congratulations.”
