The Chairman, Plateau Our Heritage, POH, Hon. Alex Kwapnoe has charged Plateau state government to ensure that it create a secure and conducive atmosphere for the people to enable them engage in entrepreneurial activities towards self reliance.

Hon. Kwapnoe gave the charge shortly after members of the POH rose from a day long “entrepreneurship and business management” training workshop held at the Jos Business School, jobs, extended to the members by the proprietor of the institution; Nde Ezekiel Gomos.

The Chairman who was represented by the Assailant Secretary, Dr. Plangsat Dayil noted that small scale business can only thrive when security to life and property was guaranteed.

According to him, the government and its security agencies must be proactive and live up to expectations as more people are showing commitments to try their hands on things that will fetch them extra income as salaries are becoming unsure these days.

He said the POH will remain grateful to Nde. Gomos who was magnanimous to share his wealth of experience free to the POH and the collaboration was the beginning of more positive things to come to the POH and the jbs.

Responding, Nde Gomos assured that it was “my pleasure and privilege to share and exchange ideas with all the wonderful participants” and thanked the leadership and members of the POH for extending the opportunity.

According to him, “We all have the responsibility to continue to share the message of entrepreneurship and am glad that POH has taken the bull by the horn in addition to its focus on security, social development and other issues” and added that his doors would continue to remain open to groups desirous of engaging in any training that is related to business and entrepreneurship activities.
