Responding, Olorogun Anozie Raymond described the the award presentation as unexpected because impacting in Human Capital Development has been his major concern from his university days.
I was not doing expecting any award from UPYA because of what I did, because that is my way of having positive impact in the society.
“Entrepreneurship is good to some extent, because even as a civil servant, it help you out before government salaries would come.
“I pulled out of the civil service because I was not seeing what I expected and as at today, I am an employer of labour with over 50 employees as a way of giving back to the society.
“In Nigeria settings, graduates work with a stool and small table as an office and that was a major reasons I pulled out of the civil service job and I have never regretted it.
“I appreciates the effort of UPYA bringing this training to Ughelli and i will continue to partner with the UPYA team because i have always have a role to play by impacting meaningfully to the society. “
