I am getting my life back. 

Elliot’s livelihood as an electrician was adversely impacted by the ravaging corona virus pandemic. He’s learnt to be resilient as he gets his life back. He shares his story.

My name is Elliot Adi Tokoli. I am an electrician and a YIEDIE beneficiary. The outbreak of the Covid-19 pandemic affected my livelihood. It was devasting and very challenging, but I signed up to the CoRe mentoring programme and I must say that the programme was God sent. I have learnt to be resilient and not allow myself to be a victim of circumstances. I have been inspired to know that there is still hope and I can bounce back if I keep my focus and think of possible alternatives to explore and still do my work despite the pandemic.

As it stands now, I’m getting my life back in a new normal way as we have been thought during the programme. I would describe my experience with CoRe as a wonderful experience. God bless this initiative.
