GLORY Impact Christian Centre plans to hold its three-day skill acquisition and empowerment programme for youth and women from September 22 and 24 at GIG Cathedral, Akute, Ogun State.
In a statement by the Senior Pastor, Glory Impact Christian Centre, Pastor Busola Afolayan, said their objective is to equip young people and women in the Olambe-Akute community with skills that can help to solve the problem of unemployment. It is also to encourage people who have paid jobs to have multiple streams of income.
“The rising unemployment in our society calls for concern. Hence, we must rise up to tackle it before it gets out of hand. It is a well-known fact that no meaningful social and economic progress could be recorded where the majority of any society is unemployed.
“Furthermore, we live in a country with an unstable economy. There is no guarantee that you will always get your salary when you expect it and the reality is that there are some financial needs that you can’t delay. The more income streams you can create the more wealth you will have.”
