some youth development program in Nigeria for this reasons I’ve not been online as I used to be, but now am back after a long period of time but I did enjoy my time in Nigeria with lots experience gain from Nigeria and am ready to put them in play immediately I know it’s has been a while and ever since I left the country our basketball league has not got any improvement not because of lack of founds but lack of knowledge of the game, and also many mistrust going on in the system but now that am back my main focus will be on how to change the mined set of my our coaches and club management as well, I’ve got so many problems in my first two years in Ghana with this, and now I think I have got better understanding of the people I remember back in 2009 when I first started thinking to get Florence dadson Linda Eshun & Elisabeth Codjoe out to get them some college opportunities I was immediately hit by some set of this coaches who thought it was a way of making money but today to God be the glory this ladies are doing well with their various schools in the united States of America, also when I first started my basketball academy I said I was not going have a basketball team where am going to be paying the boys but I’m gonna to be having a basketball academy where the kids can get college opportunities to get better Education in and around the country and I then came up with this idea that through basketball and soccer this kids can still have scholarship to schools in the united states and other parts of THE World as well,
but there’s negative minded coaches who will not see the things happening from the positively said I was making money from the athletes just because I asked the athletes to pay for their ACT Exams fees 190 form fees if giving an 120 forms this guys go out to say I take money from this young men & women, but thank God those I took this money from are all in the united states now doing fine, and this bring me to this instead of putting more interest on the young athletes a lot of us are more concern on the finical result reward we’ll get from whatever we’re doing no wonder we’re where we’re are Now. For me I’ve done my part by providing opportunities for this kids most of the athletes that came through my programs are all doing fine now with their studies in the united states & hopefully become professional athletes some day
It was indeed a humanitarian Sunday for me at the Adoka IDPs camp. Where I had some non food items (clothing) distributed to members of the IDPs at the camp. It was indeed a happy and joyful moment for this IDP members in Adoka having me always fighting, pushing, standing with and for them in this their trying moment right from 3rd February,2024 when the blood thirsty armed Fulani militias came attacking and displaced them from Entekpa to Adoka-Ehaje Ward of Adoka in Otukpo local government area till date. Without any hope of returning back to their ancestral home/communities in view. Many thanks to all those especially the Benue State deputy governor His Excellency Dr. Barr. Sam Ode,mni , the Benue State Head Of Service, Prince Dr.Moses Ode Agbogbo Oleng that have been standing with us at the Adoka IDPs camp with food items, non food items, finances and grant opportunities.
