“I want to commend all those who took part in the success of this project. With the completion of this project, we shall not just stop here but continue to show support to other societies and focus on our other projects that we are currently working on. I wish the new trainees success in their different trades.”

“This is a good step in the development of our society because instead of giving our generation fish, we are teaching them how to fish!” 

“I want to appeal to the elites in our society to come out and help in the development of our environment.”

The Executive Governor of Lagos State, Babatunde Raji Fashola later commissioned the vocational centre after a tour of the facility. “I am delighted that custodians of our culture have decided to work towards the development of our society. People complain about our lack of skills in this country as Ghanaians and the Togolese have taken up our very own trades. Sir Kesington has taken it upon himself to help change our society by empowering our youths. For this, I congratulate him’’ Fashola said.

“The Lagos state Government through various vocational centres has trained over 35, 000 trainees in different skills and they now run their own businesses. If we continue this struggle of keeping youths off the streets, we can then extend it to other states across the country” he concludes.
