Femi Gbajabiamila Gives Out CCTV Cameras To Surulere Constituents (Photos)

The Leader of the House of Representatives, Femi Gbajabiamila, yesterday presented certificates and equipment to 50 young people trained on the installation and maintenance of Close Circuit TV (CCTV) cameras in his Surulere 1 constituency, Lagos.

Gbajabiamila said it was his contribution to build human capacity and empower the youth in his constituency.

“This is a knowledge-based empowerment. I believe more in this because when somebody has the right skills and knowledge, he can continue to make a living out of it forever.

“That is the idea with this CCTV training. Beneficiaries can work anywhere in the world because it is the same process,’’ he said.

The House Leader also promised to help the beneficiaries on issues bordering on starting up and getting clients.

Speaking at the occasion, the Sole Administrator, Surulere Local Government, Mr Sherif Balogun, thanked the lawmaker for the programme. He said the initiative would go a long way in solving the problem of unemployment in the area.

One of the beneficiaries, Mr Rotimi Ogundoye, thanked Gbajabiamila for the training and urged him to continue to deliver initiatives towards uplifting the people of Surulere.
