THE CHILD HERO EMPOWERMENT WORKSHOP 3.0

Chinonye . J. Chidolue, doing a little bit of motivational speaking

The sun still slumbered and the charade of illumination seemed all engulfed in a long experienced eclipse. The earth is seen wary, yet bent clambered in soliloquy of a new day, as it seemed the terrestrial elements were not ready for the instance.

Yet, honking and gridlock on bridges and pathways all assumed the ever call of diligence and vehemence. Another date was marked, in diaries of the steadfast irrespective of the sullen clime.


Amid these risers are the contingents posed towards humanity, armed with the
arsenal of Joy, selflessness and quiver full for posterity.
The Child Hero Empowerment Campaign (CHEC)'s train in spite of valley-low and Hill-up interspersing the Bariga's turf- swinging hither-thither, unsteadied by unkempt roads and potholes wider than a party's cauldron finally berths at the regal home of ALL FOOTPRINTS OF DAVID ART ACADEMY, well known for breeding personage of exploits.
Pleasantries are immediately established, chitchat by some and meditation by others.

It was the 20th of July, 2016 and the CHEC Team seized the opportunity to educate and entertain the children on living a skillful and successful life, by building their talent at the foundation level and also taking advantage of their educational opportunities to groom themselves into skillful and resourceful individuals. This marked the 3rd edition of CHECs monthly Child Development Workshop.

CHEC, known for her monthly humanitarian activity chose: Education and Talent: Gateway to a Future as the theme for their June workshop. Talent it truly was, for a collectible of dancers, drummers, acrobats, Singers, Orators, poet, Writers and Dramatist who filled the room, welcoming us with serenading folk-songs and their improvised National Anthem (Footprint of David Art academy version) at about few minutes past ten.

After the well composed tunes with appealing harmony followed by a round of applause, Mr Uche Uwadinachi as usual showcase of spontaneity and proficiency formally announces the purpose of the gathering.
His moni moni song was both appealing and educating as the pupilage of the Academy learnt unforgettable morals thereof.

The sagacious poet, Prestige enthralls all with his piece titled-LOVE, woven with puns and rhymes. He says, Truth without Love is Brutality".
Ifeanyi Bernard, a poet, with Bassey Okon


The next speaker was Amobi Q-sac Okeke in an unassuming entrance gave out a test on Tongue twisting with a price tag without an apt respondent.  His lecture hinged on fundamentals of Education as a catalyst for grooming inherent abilities.
He however stated that it must be well nurtured. Before bowing out, he requested that the attentive children select each letter from the word EDUCATION, which he gave a definition to in his own words. He brilliantly answered to the amazement of all.

SunSamPaul Egwu (Sunday Paul Egwu) with his unmatched panache of will and meticulous steps, up the game by giving out his new book titled: IKENNA AND THE ZEBRA to randomly selected ones.
Thence, his two poems, Full of Hope and Save the Slum, were doled on a platter of passion and tenacity.

Spoken word Artiste and Speaker Fr33zinPaul rendered a short but inspiring address to the children, using the Acronym PISS to motivate them. He gave the children a new understanding of the word PISS which for him means Patience, Income, Savings and Service, four of which upholds the age long philosophy of starting small and earning greatly.
