One-Day Training Workshop and Empowerment Kits for Elderly People in Ado/Okpokwu/Ogbadibo Federal Constituency: A Pioneering Initiative by Chief Hon. Dr. Philip Agbese

The One-Day Training Workshop and Empowerment Kits for Elderly People on the Management of Crisis of Old Age in Ado/Okpokwu/Ogbadibo Federal Constituency sponsored by Chief Hon. Dr. Philip Agbese, is not just commendable but extremely significant initiative.

The program aims to empower elderly individuals with the necessary skills and knowledge on how best to navigate the challenges of aging and to also cope with the financial challenges emanating from the demands associated with the elderly.

Significantly, the workshop provides a platform for elderly people to learn about managing age-related crises, promoting self-sufficiency and confidence, gaining financial insight into independence and coping at old age, and legal preparedness for the inevitable.

It is worthy of note to understand that this pacesetting and people oriented workshop, which also aims at enhancing participants with valuable insights into coping with age-related challenges, illnesses, and enhancing their overall well-being, is designed to foster a sense of community among elderly individuals, reducing feelings of isolation and loneliness, hence the need to continue to fraternize among participants in idea sharing, political engagements, adaptation and possibly periodic get together, even after the workshop.

No doubt, the kits supplied will serve as practical resources and materials to support the elderly individuals in managing daily challenges, such as high blood pressure, management of their sugar level, and other unforseen but predictable eventualities associated with the ageing process, with tailored guidance and support, which acknowledges the unique needs and experiences of each participant.

God bless honourable chief Philip Agbese,the okanga 1.

This is the first of its kind.
