" My motto has remained "value addition and retention" and I cannot achieve this goal without an unequalled commitment to excellence, platforms and training. Vincent Thomas Lombardi put it right when he said "The quality of a person's life will be determined by the depth of their commitment to excellence, no matter what their chosen field" I am super excited because Millennium Fellowship is the network web that will give me the platform, mentorship and skills needed to contribute positively to the world. "
Millennium Fellowship Project: SureSafeSprings (SSS)
SureSafeSprings (SSS) in advancing SDG 6 was initiated to make clean and potable water available to all and sundry but particularly youths of school age. This was done by embarking on an inquiry at the Governmental corporation in charge of water and getting quality reply as to the reasons why some water pumps around the states (the ones close to school inclusive) where not working. We proffered solutions to the corporation and they intimated us as to the modus operandi of water distribution in the state. Now, we are rest assured, having heard from the horses' mouth that the pumps will start working, so that people living in the areas in their hundreds and thousands will have access to clean and potable water in now distant time.
We also promised to follow up on this feat
