President David Granger on Thursday officially declared open the Foundation for Real Christian Education (FORCE) training centre at Victoria Village, East Coast Demerara, where he called for more attention to be paid to youth not in employment, education or training.
“We need to pay attention to persons who are not in education, employment or training and to some extent I expect FORCE is going to be committed to ensuring persons who are not in education, employment or training are given employment and education,” President Granger was quoted as saying in a Ministry of the Presidency report on the opening.
The president commended Desmond Saul, the Principal of the vocational centre, for his hard work in ensuring that the youth of Victoria Village benefit from skills training. He also committed to assisting the school with solar panels.
