Nigerian Navy offers career talks to youths in Delta

The Forward Operating Base, (FOB) Escravos of the Nigerian Navy, organised career talks for the youths of its host communities in Warri South-West Local Government Area of Delta State.

The programme, which included medical and educational outreach initiatives, was held in Madangho Community, Warri South-West Local Government Area of Delta State, on Wednesday.

Navy Captain Ikenna Okoloagu, Commanding Officer of FOB Escravos, emphasized that the initiative is a gesture of appreciation to the host communities and aligns with the strategic directives of the Chief of Naval Staff (CNS), Vice Admiral Emmanuel Ogalla.

He said, “The FOB Escravos has enjoyed a robust relationship with the host communities over the years and wishes to sustain the unity.”

“The career talk being conducted in collaboration with the Kedahan Services Limited Training School focuses on various career and business opportunities as well as paths.

“The initiative will help to broaden the horizon of the youth toward a productive future, disabuse their minds from criminalities and contribute to nation building”

The Commanding Officer, FOB Escravos, expressed hope that the initiatives would further endear the Nigerian Navy to the populace and, by implication, improve the existing cooperation between the host communities and the Base.

Also speaking, the Project Manager, Kedahan Services Limited Training School, Rosemary Imhnanwa thanked the Nigerian Navy for the initiative.

Imhnanwa said that the initiative would change the perception of the locals who, according to her, believed that the government should do everything for them.

“From the interaction we have with the community people, we have been able to change the narratives that government should provide all their needs.

“There are solutions to every problem, so they should be focusing on the opportunities in any problem to better the lives,” she said.

On his part, the leader of the Madangho Community, Mr Solomon Uwawa, thanked the Navy for the gesture and expressed hope that the career talk would help to change the perception of the youth for the better.

Residents from Arunton, Ajudaigbo, and Ogidigben communities also participated in the programme.

The medical rhapsody featured the provision of treated mosquito net, eye glasses, health education, consultation, medications and others.

The educational rhapsody also featured the provision of school bags, mathematical sets and other writing materials to the school pupils.
