outcome/testimonies

“I learnt that I should not allow anyone touch my body
anyhow and I should always have a mind of confidence, I
should build my self esteem and always tell myself I am
exceptional and there is no kind of me”

“I should have a mentor. I should not misuse or waste my opportunities. I should meet people. I learnt that I should not be afraid to ask questions because the more questions I asked the knowledge I gain.”

“Today I learnt how to be a good leader and that I should be a
good leader by showing example. A leader should also be a servant
To be a leader, you must serve others and this means leadership is a service rendered to others.”

“I learnt that I should not take drugs the doctors said I should
not take and drugs are to be used wisely. That major and minor drugs can be abused and taking drugs in a wrong way is also drug abuse. That I should not drink open drinks. I learnt narcotics are called hard drugs and drug abuse is very bad. I should say NO to alcohol, cocaine, heroin, red wine etc.”
