THIRD TRAINING OF SELL PROGRAMME FACILITATORS BEGINS

4/18/2014

It was a sad week in Nigeria as many people, numbering seventy five died as a result of a bomb blast in Nyanya motor park, a suburb of Abuja, Nigeria’s capital city. Over one hundred and fifty are still being hospitalized. As if it was not enough, 200 young girls who were writing their final High School exams in Chibok town in Borno State, North East, Nigeria were abducted by the Boko Haram Insurgents. Just this morning, 15 people were killed in Wukari, still in the North East where we work. This is a very black week for all of us in Nigeria and especially the families of those directly affected. We pray for a total end to these dastardly inhuman act.

Am not out this week to only report bad news, so amidst all of these mourning, the SELL family still made effort to work. Last weekend the 3rd training of facilitators took place in Jalingo. 18 participants were consistent at the training. We had 6 female and 12 male. The training was on the Self Awareness Unit of the SELL programme. The training was facilitated by Mary Jamea, Beji Jibe and Victor Kamai. Also present as participant and to assist with logistics were Berlyn Boniface and Stanley Mpah. From the report by the facilitators in training, their workshops after the second training were all successful, except that there is growing need for translation of the programme into Hausa language. Thankfully we are near conclusion in the production of the Hausa Manual.

Moses attended the town hall meeting for the formulation and implementation of the National Master Plan on Drug Control in Nigeria, organized by the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA), supported by the European Union. The aim was to look at how to continue to address the increase and proliferation of drug trafficking and abuse in Nigeria. This gathering was very pertinent given that the level of drug related crimes in the North East of Nigeria is growing astronomically. All the stakeholders present made useful contribution. We hope that the Master plan shall begin to be operational soon.

Yesterday, April 16th Pat Murphy, the West African Leader of the Society of St. Patricks visited the SELL Foundation’s office in Bauchi, where he gave us an input on the use of QuickBooks. It is an accounting software that helps in tracking income and expenditures with ease. This has helped to improve the team’s capacity on the use of the QuickBooks. Thanks to Pat. 

Upcoming events:

Next week, April  24th to 27th is the all important Annual General Reflection for the SELL Foundation members. The various community teams shall send representatives. It will hold in Jos, Plateau state Nigeria.

We wish all and sundry a happy and peaceful Easter celebration. Ciao.
