This is as he reiterated his commitment to facilitating projects capable of enhancing capacity building and development of the Ogun West people.
Adeola, who is also the Chairman, Senate Committee on Appropriations, equally stressed that aside from ensuring physical and infrastructural development of the senatorial district through quality and robust representation, he would continue to intensify his efforts on espousing vocational training targeted at individual development of the people.
The lawmaker stated this on Saturday during the presentation of certificates and laptops to over 1000 participants in the five-day ICT training, held at the ICT Centre of the Comprehensive High School, Ayetoro, Yewa North Local Government Area of Ogun State
The training which was facilitated by the senator saw selected journalists, doctors, nurses, members of the Nigeria Union of Local Government Employees, Education Secretaries, Zonal Education Officers, and staff of the Gateway ICT Polytechnic, Igbesa, participating in the exercise.
Other participants included staff of the College of Agriculture, Olabisi Onabanjo University, Ago-Iwoye, (Ayetoro Campus), staff of the Federal Polytechnic, Ilaro, staff of School of Nursing, Ilaro and staff of Government Science College, Ayetoro.
Adeola represented by the Senior Legislative Aide to the Deputy Senate President, Mrs Adebisi Olaotan, explained that “the ICT training is not only to boost the capacity building of the participants, but to also fine-tune and update their skills with the latest ICT Applications and technologies.
“The 5-day training is one of the projects being facilitated and lined up to increase the knowledge and enhance individual development particularly as it relates to the use of ICT tools which is quite important in our day-to-day activities
“Many teachers and students of secondary schools in the senatorial district had earlier been trained and empowered with computer laptops, and with this latest ICT training more than 1,500 laptops have been distributed”
He added that 15,000 school bags, 20,000 Mathematics and English textbooks had also been distributed to all the primary and secondary schools in Ogun West.
While urging the new set of beneficiaries of the ICT training to use the knowledge they acquired to enhance their service delivery and skills, Adeola assured that he would continue to give quality representation at the Senate with the view of facilitating more life-changing projects to Ogun West.
