" I am excited to be a Millennium Fellow because when I see what other Fellows are doing to change their little corner of the world, I am proud to be named amongst and be part of these leaders of change.
I have a heart that yearns to see others around me grow to realise their potential, so when I go down to the village and see these young hopefuls, I am satisfied and reassured that I am contributing to the growth of the future. "

Millennium Fellowship Project: Helping Hands Initiative

Holding Hands Initiative seeks to improve the quality of Secondary School Students in the village of Pankshin Local Government, Plateau State. Through this project, I engage undergraduates who go to the village to conduct tutorials, mock examinations and career fest for the students in the Secondary Schools. The tutorials and mock examinations aid the students to be prepared for their final year examinations (as the mock examination is of equal standard with the final examinations) while the career fest aids them to determine what appropriate profession would suit them should they decide and with the opportunity further their studies beyond the Secondary School. The project also seeks to support exceptional students with either full time scholarship or partial scholarship to the tertiary institution of their choice.
