Others include permanent secretaries, commissioners, captains of industries as well as other VIPs within and outside Delta state.

Chairman of the Local Organising Committee, Chief Solomon Ogba expressed delight that the interest being shown by some highly-respected individuals will be examples shown to the younger ones.

“We are happy that we are showing that in Nigeria, people can willingly submit themselves to support a good course through working as volunteers. Across the world, this has been the norm and thankfully Asaba and Delta State are also setting a good example for Nigeria and Africa as a whole,” the LOC boss noted.
