Visioner, RIF, Queen Consort of Warri Kingdom HRH Olori Atuwatse III commended the efforts of the teachers, partners, and foundation’s staff “This abridged edition of the program is a milestone for the foundation as we have been able to revise our 3-day training curriculum into interactive quality foundational manuals that the teachers will use even after the program.
Educating and empowering the teachers of the South-South region and beyond is crucial for combating the alarming out-of-school population in the Niger Delta and is salient for strengthening quality foundational education which is required for nation-building and moulding the minds of the future leaders.”
