The Imo State Commissioner for Entrepreneurship and Skills Acquisition, Hon. Noble A. Atulegwu, a participant and representative of Imo State in the recently held South Eastern Nigeria Virtual Conference on Human Capital Development, has stated that the Imo State Governor, Senator Hope Uzodimma is committed to human capital development.
Hon. Atulegwu who participated in the Virtual Conference sponsored by the Nigeria Governors’ Forum (NGF), UN and other donor agencies, described Governor Hope Uzodimma as a leader who is passionate about being an instrument for people to develop their potentials and use those developed potentials to fulfill their purpose of existence.
On the need for the de novo Virtual Conference, the Hon. Commissioner said man is an intelligent creature and can find means to adapt and overcome his challenges such as the pandemic outbreak of coronavirus in the world that has affected economic activities tremendously.
To him and every other participant, the ideal of promoting and encouraging human capital development in this period of economic meltdown orchestrated by the ravaging virus cannot be ruled out. It is timely and of utmost importance.
Shedding light on Governor Hope Uzodimma’s laudable moves to create young entrepreneurs in Imo State, beneficiaries of the “Imo Youths Empowerment Workshop”, after their trainings, documentations and certification, they have been directed properly and the process to capacitate them to become self-reliant has remained an interesting one.
