 EJOR leaders have been told to create opportunities for the younger generation outside the oil and gas sector so that they will have something to fall back on when the oil runs dry. But this came at the graduation ceremony for 80 EJOR youths from across the Niger Delta who were trained on ICT by the national spokesman of the EJOR Youth Council under the 301 ICT Service Skills Acquisition Program. Now after three months of intensive training they were presented with certificate and starter parts to kick-start their own businesses as stakeholders emphasised the need for more of such trainings. I'm speaking and defending the interests of the generation. I believe that I owe my people a duty to use my platform to build a capacity especially in the area of ICT which is the major driver of major economies all around the world. We cannot continue to believe that the only sustainers of our national economy is oil. What if the oil dries off? How are we going to sustain ourselves? So we should begin to now look beyond the oil and see how we can empower our youth, build our capacities. And today we can see the results that everybody is happy and has added some value to the generation. That's what we expect of each and everyone who has been called upon to serve or who volunteers. Him is his sole substance to the generation, to make the best use of it, not to allow side-attraction, side-talks to derail him or her. Tomorrow's future is in the hands of these people. If we don't train them well, according to the Chinese adage, if you don't train them well, you'll be keeping them idle to steal those things you have kept safe. If you train them well and empower them well, they will grow up to be entrepreneurs and at the same time to self-guide those values you have kept so strongly. Instead of going to look for money to buy a laptop or a computer to start from where I stopped during the program, but it has actually made it possible by giving us a computer, a laptop package, to make it easy. Like from now, if I get some, I will just open my computer and start practicing from where I stopped.
