Group Advises FG, States On Human Resource Dev
The federal and state gov
ernments have been advised to pay more attention to capacity building and human resources development as a way in the eradication of poverty in the society.
The Chairman of the Coalition of Niger Delta Journalists (CONDJ) Mr Wariso Wariso gave the advice at Oyigbo, Sunday shortly after receiving a car- gift from the General Overseer of Adoration Family, Apostle Phil Okunerere.
He said if governments and other relevant bodies could act in similar way, suffering and poverty may be reduced.
Wariso, blamed the high rate of poverty in the society on what he described as inaction of government and some private individuals.
The CONDJ boss, said that it was about time those in authority emulate the likes of Okunerere and learn how to reach out to those who are in need, especially the less priviladged.
About the N1,000,000 donation to a widow in the church by the man of God, he noted that it was a clear indication of teaching by example.
According to him, the cleric gave the monetary donation to prevent the widow’s brother-in-law from selling the late husband’s bungalow over a long unpaid debt.
He stressed that if those who are handy could have a rethink and consider capacity building and human resources development the society would rise to a very enviable height.
The Tide also gathered that the man-of-God, has transformed the live of a road-side charger seller to an international merchant.
Our reporter, further learnt that the car-gift for the pressure was valued at over N800,000.
When contacted in his office, the clergy who is also a legal practitioner, said that he derives joy from contributing to human development.
