the sensitization program was “born out of the need to see that children and people generally are treated equally irrespective of their sex

The gender and charity CDs group in Kwara state, held a public lecture where they sensitized students of Government Day Kaiama, on the importance of gender and charity development.

Community Development Service (CDS) which is one of the four (4) cardinals of the NYSC scheme has served as a platform for serious minded youth to analyze various problems facing the community and finding a lasting solution to it.

It was in this light that the Charity and Gender CDS of Kaiama LGA Kwara State, decided to sensitize the students of Government Day Secondary Kaiama on the meaning of Gender and Development
Corper Faith Kalamu who presented on gender identity defined it as “the personal sense of one’s own gender”. Furthermore, she noted that gender serves as the basis of a person’s self-awareness in relation to other members of the society.

In an exclusive interview with the advocacy chairman of the group, he noted that the sensitization program was “born out of the need to see that children and people generally are treated equally irrespective of their sex”. He further stated that the students are the leaders of tomorrow and that is why the group has decided to educate them on gender equality.

He encouraged the Corps members to keep the good work and also urged them to embark on various sensitization programs in order to keep the public aware of gender equality. He however applauded the selfless effort of the serving Corps members for their impact on both the students and their father’s land.

Biros being shared to the students

MY NYSC STORY I have realized that NYSC was no scam for me. The experience was awesome and I was able to achieve so much. I built capacity, and got ready for the outside world. My name is Victor Agu, a former Kwara corper (2018 batch C1) and I have the following experiences to share. As I write, quick memories of how I admired serving as a kid continue to flood my mind. However, I’m both happy and grateful to God that I lived out my childhood admirations. OK, let’s go on a journey: As a very near first class Economics graduate{4.40/5.00} from Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife, Osun state; I left school heavily wounded and dented, as I got kicked out of a first class in only my last semester on campus. The why and how is a story for another day. But then, I also left school back to Lagos with much zest, fire, a reason to live out my dreams and to stay at the top of my game. I quickly applied around, attended a couple of interviews and worked a little on arriving Lagos.
