[size=15pt]Danjuma donates N500m to youth training centre[/size]


Former Minister of Defence, General Theophilus Danjuma, has donated N500 million to the Youth Centre for Industrial Training in Abeokuta, Ogun State.

Danjuma also called on government at all levels to urgently take steps to check unemployment in the country to avoid a worse security situation.

The former minister made the donation yesterday at the second graduation of trainees of the centre set up by the retired Primate of the Anglican Church, Most Rev. Peter Akinola under the Peter Akinola Foundation, PAF.

He decried the high rate of insecurity in the country which he linked to the worrisome unemployment rate.

Danjuma said it was regrettable that unemployment and insecurity had now become the foremost challenges confronting Nigeria.

He also pledged an annual donation of N100 million to support the project.

The multi-million naira centre focuses on training unemployed youths to acquire skills in various vocations such as welding, electrical installation, tailoring, hairdressing, mechanic, vulcanising and masonry among others to enable them become selfreliant.

The Anglican Bishop of Asaba, Delta State, Rt. Rev. Emeka Mogekwu, also expressed concern over the unemployment situation in the country, stressing that it had poisoned the minds of youths against the society.

The cleric regretted that the country’s institutions were not producing graduates to meet the manpower need of a developing country like Nigeria.

He commended the Peter Akinola Foundation for setting the centre to empower youths, who would otherwise be roaming on the streets.

In his address, Akinola disclosed that he set up the centre as his own contribution towards solving the unemployment problem in the country.

He also said the management of the centre was exploring the possibility of affiliating it with the London Institute of City and Guild, saying that “our mission is to provide a world-class trade centre”.

When i'm working hard to earn my fisrt N50m as a businessman, a former politician is donating N500m.

Why is power/politics now the way to riches ?? For me to donate N500m, it means i'm worth N50bn.

It's easy for anyone who had an oil bloc fall on his lap without working for it to portray himself as an altruistic philanthropist.

This back-stabbing retired general must think that all these "donations" will make us forget what he did to Ironsi.

Shall we compare N500 million with the worth of his oil bloc?

Re: Danjuma Donates N500m To Youth Training Centre by MARKREN: 1:43pm On Sep 26, 2013
With the level of underdevelopment in his hometown Takum in particular & Taraba (his own state) in general, one begins to wonder about the significance of this gift to Ogun State.

I served in Taraba state and it level of development is miles away from Ogun state. Only 4 local governments out of the 17 or 18 have power. Education is nothing to write home about. Health services are poor, & corp member make up a sizable bunch of their medical teams all of their hospitals and health centers. Road and Infrastructure is another matter. Despite all these this is a state that has the potential to feed this country with its vast and rich land suitable for virtually all forms of agriculture & animal husbandry.

One would think that though his wealth is ill gotten, if he wanted to make a donations, he would remember his people first.

My 2 cents..................................

Nigeria a nation of paradoxes.....................................
