An International NGO, \u2018Rehabilitation and Hope for the Vulnerable in Africa Initiative\u2019 \u2013 RAHVAI has empowered five Nigerian ladies with tailoring skills while also providing them with brand new tailoring machines to enable them to set up their trade.<\/p>

The presentation of the Tailoring machine took place in Abuja recently during the official launch of the Pastor\u2019s NGO organization which is set up to provide support and succor to the less privileged in Nigeria.<\/p>

Speaking with the media after the occasion, the coordinator of the NGO, and US-based Pastor Miracle Elijah noted that the five recipients were just the humble beginning of the organization, stressing that the number of the recipients would be increasing with every New Year.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

He maintained that the job to tackle poverty in Nigeria should not be left to the Government alone while also stressing that it is the responsibility of every well-to-do Nigerian whether leaving in Nigerian or abroad to assist the Government in their own way.<\/p>

The Pastor said further; \u201cI think poverty the way it is, it\u2019s almost taking over the nation and it is becoming like a kind of disease and a kind national epidemic that is trying to take over the land, but I still believe that it is something that we can put under control if we can live a selfless life if we decide to meet one another needs, I think it\u2019s something we can, it\u2019s something we can subdue.<\/p>

\u201cI don\u2019t really believe in the ideology that Government should provide everything because even where I stay in the united state, it is not the government, the government plays her role and while the organizations also play their own role, The individuals also play their own role, it\u2019s a joint thing that had to be taken seriously.<\/p>

And talking specifically about the current project he said, \u201cIn this current Project, all we are doing here is just trying to empower people to leave where they are so they can be a blessing because one thing in life is that if you raise one, the person you raise will no longer be at the same level, the person will have the capacity to be able to raise others and that\u2019s you see will begin to make changes in life. The reason I decided to go into this project is because of the kind of life I lived and how God used both men and women at different levels to change my status.<\/p>

One of the recipients, Mrs. Faith Agbako expressed joy for being one of the lucky once the training she had received would go a long way to changing her life. Speaking with the media she explained how she got to be selected for the program.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\u201cI got to hear about this from my husband who got the information, and I was so happy when I heard it and I had to grab the opportunity because fashion is always something I have passion for from the unset. But the resources, because when you hear the prices of fashion school, it\u2019s usually crazy. But when I heard about the opportunity, I had to grab it and with all my heart and I am so happy I did.<\/p>

On why she qualifies for a program meant specifically for the downtrodden in the society, she said, \u201cOk I was doing little business in my own little way and things were tough and at that time when I got the information, and at that point I was thinking \u2018\u2019what do I do next\u2019\u2019 since things were going to high, I was no longer making so much profit in my business as I expected, \u00a0and things were just increasing, and when I heard about the opportunity, I just knew it\u2019s something I needed have passion for.<\/p>

\u201cWow, I have learn a whole lot of things. I have learned how to make men\u2019s clothes, women\u2019s clothes, I make my children\u2019s clothes, their Christmas clothes for this year am going to make them myself, my husband, so I have learnt a lot of things. Even this dress am wearing, I made it myself and it was so beautiful,\u201d she said.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
