Fresh off of enhancing the main visitors’ area of the Kaieteur National Park and providing life skills training in the indigenous village of Chenapou, Region Eight, the First Assembly of God Wortmanville’s youth group Nulli Secundus has been awarded for its service to communities across Guyana.
The group was among those honoured at the fifth annual National Youth Awards on Saturday night. They were awarded for their service in volunteerism. According to president of the group Martin Massiah, Nulli Secundus, which means second to none, comprises a group of young people focused on developing other youths spiritually, physically, economically and socially. Formed in 2007, the youth group currently has about 150 active members ranging from ages 13 to 35, who have been setting out on expeditions to indigenous villages across the country for the last four years.
“Every year, we have a signature expedition into the interior where we go to indigenous communities to educate or to develop different projects in the communities,” Massiah said.
