It's 24 hrs to our millennial conversation on "Creating the Future, Post COVID19".
Are you ready? If you are, here is your schedule👇🏽
It is important that in our fight against the #COVID19 pandemic,we leave no one behind/uninformed about the virus and how to contain it. With this in mind,we decided to create a series of videos to ensure we play our part in educating every Nigerian in a language they understand.
Over the next couple of days, we intend to upload videos in additional languages. Today we are calling on you to share these videos with not just your family and friends, but with the less privileged and most vulnerable amongst us, security guards, plumbers, electricians, etc.
