Anambra philanthropist High Chief Jude Anyichie (Ebubedike Nnobi) has launched a Leadership Training Academy aimed at secondary school students pursuing careers in science.
Speaking at the Sir Pius Ufudo Complex in Ifite Nnobi, Idemili South LGA, Anambra State, High Chief Jude Anyichie, who also serves as the Chairman of the Jude Anyichie Foundation (JAC), explained the motivation behind this initiative. As a well-traveled Computer and Satellite Engineer, he emphasized that his global experiences have shown him that education, particularly in Science and Technology, drives progress in the modern world.
He said, “Education is the most powerful weapon which we can use to change the world and make it a better place. We believe in that transformative power of education to change lives and create a brighter future for all’.
“Our story is one of passion, purpose and unwavering commitment to empowering the lives, nurturing young talents, and ensuring equal access to education for everyone.
“Our mission is empowering talented minds, transforming lives. We understand that talent knows no boundaries. Across the world countless brilliant young minds lack the resources and opportunity to fully realize their potentials.
“We are here to change the narrative. We identify, nurture and empower young talents from all walks of life. Through scholarships, mentorship programs, and access to quality education, we aim to ensure that no gifted Youth is left behind.”
Anyichie, whose parents were school teachers in Nnobi, shared that growing up, he missed out on many opportunities due to his humble background. However, he is now dedicated to removing those barriers to quality education that many students still face because of economic challenges.
