It was a beautiful sunny day, and the warm reception received by the delegates of project 1000 by the host made it an unforgettable day for our solution driven forum.

He welcomed us with a short speech and Mr dough Onah responded with a brief on why we came to fellowship with him.
After that a beautiful portrait with well crafted inspired words was presented to him.
The presentation was done by Mr Odey O. Ariel on behalf of project 1000 and few shots was taken. He was excited about the brevity of the members of project 1000 and immediately ordered that the portrait be placed at a strategic place in his office.
He spent few minutes to speak extensively to us...striking points he made was as follows.
*That project 1000 and her members should gear up and get involved in governance, because the government of today needs fresh and workable programs.
*That we should get involved in farming specifically yam, yellow maize and soya beans.
*That young professionals within the group should find a way to get their skill to be useful. More opportunities abound in our state than ever before.
*That we the young people shouldn't stop aspiring for greater achievement especially in academics. He categorically pleaded that those with first degree should pursue Masters degree and PHD as the case may be.
Finally he stressed on the 3H's which according to him has been his pillar virtues over the years
Hardwork
Humility
Honesty.

We thanked him for his words and Mr Ogar Sunday gave him progress report about the project 1000 farms and other project that the forum is involved in.
The meeting ended with the celebration of the birthdays of two of the delegates (Names). Champagne was popped, glasses clicked and smiles showered.
But before we left, we gave the Governors portrait to the DG, he said he ll deliver himself or try to make way that we present it ourselves. We shall follow up on this.
Many thanks for all of you who made it possible.
God bless you, God bless Yala Nation, God bless Project 1000.
