Ogolo who was represented at the event by the Deputy Editor (Daily), Mr. Donald Mike-Jaja, promised to assit in publicizing activities of the Chamber, stressing that with the newly acquired set of printing machines and manpower, RSNC has the capacity to deliver standard services.
He also encouraged the Chamber to develop articles that could promote leadership and entrepreneurial development, saying that door of the corporation is open for the organization.

JCIN, she said is an international NGO of young persons between 18-40 years with a global network involving over 100 countries of the world.
“We are interested in empowering young people in enterprenuer and leadership development.
Government alone, cannot do everything in the society, so we use our professional expertise to expose, train and empower other young people as a way of supporting them to escape the harsh job market”, she said.
She said the body had concluded plans to carry out a medical outreach at Bundu in Port Harcourt City Local Government on March 7, 2015 to provide free medical service to people of the area.
