CoRe remedied the destruction of Covid-19.
Prosper is a professional painter based in Adentan in the Greater Accra Region. He is also a member of the YIEDIE group, which got him introduced to the CoRe mentoring programme. He is confident of getting his business back on track again as well as exploring other new opportunities.
I am Prosper Setsoafia, a professional painter at Adentan. I run my own company called WESTLAG Painting Services. I lost some of my contracts due to the COVID-19 pandemic. I heard about the CoRe programme through the YIEDIE youth association, and it has proven to be a great learning experience for me. The programme has broadened my horizon and drawn my attention to other opportunities aside from my painting business.
I am confident of succeeding with the new knowledge I have been equipped with. Through CoRe, I have identified other opportunities in communication, leadership, training, administrative work as well as inspiring others. With faith in God, I hope to put into practice my new lessons and explore more opportunities. I believe I can make it. COVID–19 came as a major distraction for me; but the CoRe Programme has provided a bridge to get back my life and livelihood. I encourage the youth to not give up but persist in continuous training and learning, in which are the seeds of the turnaround to make them greatly successful in their chosen endeavours.
