James Papy Kwabo, Jr., founder and former General Manager of the Alternative Youth Radio, served as Guest Speaker at the graduation ceremony of the second cycle of the Boleylabo Professional Skills Training Program in Zorzor City.
Twenty-four community members completed training in vocational skills including soap making, handcrafts, interior decorating, cake making, beauty, and hair care. Speaking to the graduates, Mr. Kwabo encouraged them to remain focused and to organize into professional groups, saying collective effort strengthens unity, attracts support, and creates employment opportunities within the community.
The ceremony also included the announcement of plans to support fifty additional students in the next training cycle, ensuring the continuity of the program.
“It is always humbling to see the people’s trust and warmth,” Mr. Kwabo said. “Our work has always focused on staying present, sharing skills, and helping our communities grow together.”
The Boleylabo Professional Skills Training Program has become a key initiative in Lofa County, providing residents with practical skills to contribute to local development and economic growth.
