The CYFI programme helped me to
successfully choose a career. I got to know the meaning of mentorship who a
mentor is and the importance of a mentor.
Now I have a mentor who contacts me on phone and has promised to visit
me in school this week Friday. I wish the programme could continue.. – Adeniji Abdulazeem

I have learnt how
to cope with peer pressure. I don’t let them change my decision especially
when I am right.- Idogho Sylvester

The
programme was educative and very inspiring. It helped me a lot in my subjects
especially Mathematics, which I wholeheartedly hated before. This programme
has brought out the leadership skills in me and it has made me to know that I
am the best! And, that I should not take personally what others think or say
about me. The programme has done a lot of SSS 3 students of Ikeja Snr. High
School and I would say to them “Keep it Up”, thank you. – Nmachukwu Sophia

It
was such an educative programme. The most interesting part was the Health Talkshow
that enlightened me on drug abuse and how they affect our academic
performances. I was paired with a mentor that has been mentoring me well and
even helping me with my studies. The programme has greatly impacted my life.
