No fewer than 20 young persons from Calabar Municipal Council have been trained in cosmetology, courtesy of the member representing the constituency in the state House of Assembly, Hon. Stanley Nsemo.
The training was in fulfilment of part of the promises he made to the people during his campaigns.
The training which was organized for young school leavers cuts across the 10 political wards in Calabar Municipality, and is aimed towards equipping them with relevant skills while granting them the opportunity to make a living with the skills.
Hon. Nsemo who was represented by the Constituency Liaison Officer, Mr Otang Romeo, promised that different trainings as well as empowerment programmes will be carried out by the lawmaker on a quarterly basis.
“Hon. Nsemo fulfilled his pledge to the people of Calabar Municipality during the electioneering season, when he promised empowerments that will liberate the people and make them self-dependent.
"Subsequently, more of these empowerment programs will be announced every quarter to help cushion the effect of high cost of living in the Constituency," he said.
