By Emmanuel Asuquo

The Motivational Centre (TMC) under the auspices of Little Kindness Foundation has opened the first ever creativity pool in Lagos, Nigeria. The Creativity Pool which is housed by a master piece edifice sits on No. 18, Oreguwa Street, Oregun, Ikeja and operates with the title The Motivational Centre 1. The establishment of the Centre is a give-back-to-the-society initiative of Dr. Jerry Ariomovuohoma as his contribution towards the advancement of the youths of Nigeria.

The Motivational Centre is a non profit, non partisan organization that is poised to drive the effort to raise the successor generation by inspiring, equipping and empowering young people to provide a robust fit-for-purpose work force and visionary leadership for over 20 sectors of the economy in the next few decades. It seeks to harness and channel the vast human capital pool towards more strategic growth and developmental outcomes, thereby redistributing intellectual growth opportunities
within the nation’s institutions through developing creativity hubs across the nation’s institutions.

“TMC offers a wide range of empowering programmes and projects that forms a strategic build up towards achieving its goals of motivating and empowering 10 million young people across Africa by 2030” the Executive Director, Johnson Abbaly dropped this while delivering his keynote address at the triple celebration of the formal launching of The Motivational Centre, book launch of the President of TMC, Dr. Jerry Ariomovuohoma titled “Poverty is by Choice” and the induction of forty one young
professionals who have completed the Alpha Academy master circle class into the TMC creativity pool. He also disclosed TMC’s plan to open two centres one in Lekki area of Lagos State and another in Ghana soon. According to him, he believes Nigeria has the manifest destiny to lead African continent into its economic emancipation.

The event drew top CEOs from select private companies and the who is who in the society to Oregun, where the TMC is situated and promises a bright future from its numerous bridge-the-gap projects all geared towards advancing the youths, the country and the continent at large.
