Etisalat’s pact with the Nigerian youths came to the fore when it took its youth empowerment programme, Cliqfest, to Delta State University, (DELSU), Abraka last weekend, for the second time. This time a 100-Level student of the Industrial Chemistry Department, Prince McCarthy, emerged the latest winner of the star prize of a brand new Hyundai i10 after taking part in the raffle draw.
Head, Youth Segment, Etisalat Nigeria, Elvis Daniel noted that the company is bringing Cliqfest to DELSU for the second time in about three years due to the success recorded at the first outing. He noted that the students of the institution were passionate about the event and displayed great knowledge of the EasyCliq package.
“What we set out to achieve at each school we visit is to engage the students in activities that would develop them intellectually, physically and socially. Etisalat is equipping Nigerian youths with the requisite knowledge and skills to excel in every area of their lives after school.” He said.
The two-day programme recorded a large turn-out of students who came to participate in the different activities similar to previous campuses. A motivational seminar, novelty match, concert, comedy, dance competition and raffle draws were the memorable moments experienced by the students.
Day one of the programme kicked off with the seminar facilitated by motivational speaker, Niyi Adesanya tagged ‘Success Activation’. The Students Union Government (SUG) President, Obaro Ohwojero speaking after the seminar expressed his gratitude to Etisalat for bringing Cliqfest to his school for once again.
Despite the intermittent downpour on day two, the students trooped out en masse for a novelty football match followed by a concert with headlining acts like Terry G, Solid star and Nigerian Idol season 4 winner, Evelle. Raffle draws were held and prizes given out, including mobile devices, laptops, Etisalat branded t-shirts, cash prizes and the aforementioned star prize of a car.
