In Nigeria today, many people are educated but not empowered.
We celebrate certificates, yet ignore the painful truth that certificates alone do not create income, dignity, or independence.
Skills do.
Skill acquisition is not a motivational buzzword.
It is the difference between waiting and building,
between surviving and creating value,
between frustration and purpose.
This reality is what gave birth to the Fundraising and Launch of the Veronica Onyeneke Institute of Entrepreneurship.
It was not just an event.
It was a response to a national problem we all see but rarely confront.
The late Mrs. Veronica Onyeneke understood something deeply human.
When you teach a person how to create value, you do not just help them earn money.
You restore confidence.
You give direction.
You give them a future they can shape with their own hands.
The institute exists to raise entrepreneurs who can think, work, and build in the real world.
People who will stop waiting for opportunities and start creating them.
People who can employ others and strengthen families and communities.
This launch was about legacy with impact,
about choosing long term solutions over short term sympathy,
about empowering people in a way that lasts.
Now let me ask you.
Do you believe Nigeria needs more skills than speeches?
Do you believe empowerment is better than handouts?
Do you believe entrepreneurship education can truly change lives?
If yes, do not scroll past this.
