One of the needs of young people of this contemporary time is information; with access to right information and a little help, they could make judicious use of the information they have. When people are helped in such ways, they find the right solution to their own problem. The SELL Foundation engages in helping young adults across creeds and beliefs contribute to building the community of their dreams. Two members of the SELL Resource team, Isaac and Maria, while guiding their peers, and building an ecumenical spirit through the SELL Programme, were at the ‘Family House’ of the Nigerian Christian Corper’s Fellowship (NCCF), at Yelwa-Lebra in Bauchi town, Bauchi State, Nigeria to explore the Leadership unit of the SELL Programme. A total of 30 young adults took part in this workshop on the weekend of Friday 23rd to Saturday 24th February 2013. At the end of the workshop some of them had this to say; “the style is simple, it makes me feel at home. I suggest it should be incorporated among the Programs at the orientation camp for Corp members because it will go a long way to change our mentality on leadership” (G.A Yirvoms Esq.). Please this particular leadership training should be taught all over the state and Local Government Areas in Nigeria, the youth need such education and even some interested Government bodies. Because this is a very interesting and needed Programme to empower, sensitize and teach young people more about leadership (Akissani Tabitha).
While the workshop was taking place with the Corpers, Jonathan and Moses, also members of the SELL Resource Team, were at Shuwa a town in Adamawa State of Nigeria. The duo went there to train young People that were selected to take the facilitator training of the SELL Programme. Jonathan gave this report of the training;
The first community training of facilitators of the SELL Programme was held in Maiduguri area from the 20th to 24th of February at the JDPC Centre in Shuwa.
The first community training of facilitators of the SELL Programme was held in Maiduguri area from the 20th to 24th of February at the JDPC Centre in Shuwa.
12 young persons from across the various communities of Borno and Adamawa State of Nigeria took the training.
The Unit of SELL they were trained in was the Peace - Building unit of the Programme.
At the end of the training, the young people said they were very enthusiastic to bring such a Programme to other young people in their communities. They then made plans and selected different dates for when they will be running the Programmes in their communities. We wish them well as they plan and hope their efforts help to make the country a better place and yield fruits for peace and unity. The 12 new facilitators will serve Borno, Yobe and parts of Adamawa states of Nigeria.
UPCOMING EVENTS

The Training will take place at the Youth Formation Centre, Bauchi. Reports of this will be brought to you next week.
