The Executive Chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, Abdulrasheed Bawa on Saturday, 5 March 2022, enjoined Nigerian youths to be diligent and hardworking as the acceptable means to becoming successful.
The EFCC boss gave the charge at an event organized by ENACOVID19 for repentant commercial sex workers, orphans and victims of domestic violence as well as other vulnerable persons.
Bawa who spoke through the Head of Creative Communications Unit of the Public Affairs Department of the Commission, Nwanyinma Okeanu, encouraged the participants to shun crime and be diligent in their pursuit. According to him, obedience, hard work, creativity, belief in God and belief in one’s self are the keys to becoming successful in Nigeria.
“There is no cutting corners in becoming successful, you must be ready to work hard and decide within yourself that you want to be successful and follow your dreams diligently,” he said.
He commended the organizers for helping vulnerable Nigerians to do something meaningful which will in turn help them stay out of crime.
The Convener and Executive Director, Ben Onwudinjo said ENACOVID19 is an advocacy, teaching, empowerment and scholarship organization targeted at the vulnerable in the society. He pointed out that what his organization is doing is helping as many Nigerians as possible to make something meaningful out of life, through vocational training in bakery, tailoring, photography etc. “Our plan is to also teach, prepare and give scholarships to participants to write the 2022 May/June NECO and NABTEC exams”, he added.
