The participants of the Delta State Youth Empowerment ICT Training Program lead a massive protest to the Government House, Today December 16th, 2021 over non payment of the empowerment Startup Capital and starter packs promised by the Government after their training program.

The poineeer program by the Delta State Science and Technology have been plagued with so many shortfalls. The program hub which was located in Asaba had over 80percent participants from Warri who were forced to spend hundred of thousands renting apartment in the very expensive capital city, Asaba. The practical aspect of some of the empowerment program was scrapped for no reason.

The participants reached out to the commissioner of Science and Technology Lady Jennifer Adasen on several occasions but there was no positive response instead she did bribe some gullible participants in Asaba with 5,000naira each while those based in warri were bribed with 7000naira each.

50% of participants opined that they have already forgotten all the coding they were taught as there are no kits to practise. It would be suffice to note that the processes for selection was very rigorous and it's did involve a CBT test and only those who scored 70% and above were invited for interviews. The whole selection process took about five months.

Considering how lucrative and juicy the proposed empowerment program was projected, a lot of people left their jobs in warrri, abraka etc with hope becoming techpreneurals.

The ICT participants were all graduates of higher institutions as that was the criteria set by the Delta State government and we're aged 18yrs to 40 Years.

Several open letter have been sent to the government before this protest...See the last open letter sent below;

"OPEN LETTER TO THE Governor of Delta State,Dr Ifeanyi Okowa, by the participants of the 2021 ICT program.

Your Excellency Sir,

The wealth creation and empowerment initiative of your administration have been nothing but exceptional. Just as a mustard seed is sown, it has grown into a mighty oak bringing relief and support to thousands of Deltans. it is like a roaring Canon that is being heard at the nooks and crannies of every state in Nigeria and have received a lot of accolades. This initiative deserve a million commendation. On behalf of the thousands whose lives have been shaped positively, we say thank you sir.

The positive reviews of your initiatives made us to blindly go though rigorous pre entry examination requirements into the Science and Technology empowerment intiatives, trusting the government and the processes. It is rather unfortunate that some elements are trying to sabotage your great wealth creation initiatives and bring it to disrepute via endless propaganda, insiatiable greed, deep rooted corruption and trailer loads of flimsy excuses.

The ministry of Science and Technology is working tiredlessly to drag your good name to the mud for their personal gains and greed by withholding our empowerment kits for months.

The empowerment kits was to help harness our skills and put to practise what we have learnt but it is such a shame that our dreams are being trampled upon by those who you trusted with the position to help harness our dreams and aspirations.

The program and his initiative was hijacked from it's inception. The monthly stipends were deducted and paid in Cash, the last month stipends was not paid and the bags shared was of very very low quality. The training was also incomplete for most participants as their practicals was cancelled for no reasons. Most of the facilitators were also inexperienced.

Despite the shortfalls, our resilience made us push through as we were determined to be techpreneurs that will shape the state and by extension, Nigeria.

After the program, we reached out to the commissioner on several occasions for our empowernment kits (Starter's packs) and startup Capital but she has deploy all means to bully us to silence by bribing some of our colleague with cash in Warri and Asaba. She also went on a media frenzy to change the narrative and thwart all our efforts. November end, we planned a peaceful protest to the Government House; with some converging at the venue but once again it was sabotaged by the commissioner of science and technology with help from her colleagues.

Our demands are simple and plain Sir; we just need our starter packs and startup Capital to be able to thrive in our field as ICT skills demands daily computation, consistent coding and practises for it to be harnessed.

We understand that you have spent a lot of resources on our training and it will be unfair on your administration if such great efforts are wasted, just to enrich the facilitators of the programs and the personal pockets of those who are trying to sabotage your good name, without fulfilling the purpose of enhancing the ICT sector of Delta state.

We trust that you will address this issue with swiftness and put the vision you have for Delta youths right on track with your professionalism and good Governance. We wish you all the best in your tenure and thank you for all you are doing for Delta State."

The participants are pleading with the Delta State government to fulfil their promise by given them their starter packs and startup capital as promised.

They neither shaped nor promoted it. The list should be;
1.Fela and Family
2.Wizkid
3-7 Add yours

You will never understand when you give an advise that goes wrong, it becomes a huge burden...There is sincerity in the plea...Nobody is above mistake and no one should play God in anybody's life...This is the first time, the person should be forgiven and his or her name should be removed as Scammer or whatsoever.. The gifted person Don beg Taya nau..Tomorrow is pregnant hence the reason why we should have empathy as humans....

I hope you know the way you are sounding comes across like you work with him right?

There is nothing like “he doesn’t know how this forum works” something that is legit is legit

To all those who have their PPR and have booked their tickets before this unfortunate news, please don't fret...This isn't a new virus, it is a variant and will better be managed.

Let's keep hope alive; it will be lifted soon. I will also ask us no to be too desperate by opting for other countries but if you must, be very security conscious as safety is of the utmost importance.

It will definately end in praise...

Audrey1111:
Wow I applied on the 5th of October I have done biometrics no other update yet I did the NSE route too do you think the visa office you address your application to matters in this NSE program I used Nairobi. What did the person use

Opt for NSE route if you have meet all the requirements, someone I know that submitted October 6th via NSE, was approved yesterday...

Is he the only agent in town...better safe that sorry for future purpose

Aissy:
Good evening everyone
So while me I am patiently waiting for my approval, my aunt wants to sponsor my brother to study in Canada too. But the agent she gave us said my brothers CGP of 3.09 is too low to get a master which I agree then I suggested he gets a PGD from all the information I have gathered on this page instead the agent said he should forge a certificate with a higher grade then use that apply which I strongly oppose to ooh. He said he has done it for plenty people that if my brother wants to go ahead with getting a PGD then he won’t do the visa application for him. Isn’t all this funny my people?

Try centennial College, it's free for now and you might wanna keep your ears on the ground for Black Friday this november, some Canada schools might waive it like US schools normally do, who knows

godguy:
Dear all,

I want to apply for multiple universities for graduate degree in Computer science. Because of the application fees, are there universities with free applications fees. or if anyone can help with cheap schools.

thanks

Thanks for your response, much appreciated sir.

Journal proposed journal means I wrote it specifically to be published in a journal and it's wasn't an academic requirement.

Many thanks Sir

wip7:
May I ask what you meant by “journal proposed article”?



First, I assume you completed your literature review and used multiple published research articles in doing so. You can look at the journals where those articles were published and publish your work in any of them because your literature review will point to certain connected topics of your manuscript.

It's not just about finding free journals to publish your study; it's also about finding trustworthy publications to publish your work. Only journals that are indexed in well-known, international indexes will be counted. Many people publish, yet because they publish in unknown, unrecognized, or respected publications, their progress is hampered, and their work's visibility is harmed.

Please visit any of these publishers and look for their subscription-based journals that are not open access if you want to publish in reputed free journals:

Elsevier, Springer, Taylor & Francis, Wiley.




There is no need to list anyone's name because you conducted your own study. You are able to self-publish.

Good Day House, Please am writing my first journal proposed article on Industry 5.0 to boost my PhD application. Please where can I submit it for free. I am almost done with it and I did all research alone. Do I need to work with someone or Can I just publish it. Please forgive my naive questions

If you're using Windows, the installation wizard requires that you close some applications, especially web browsers during installation, so that you can install the application successfully. Give that a try.

It was unsuccessful...
