A hybrid multi-level marketing company in Lagos, has called on the Federal Government to incorporate tech studies in primary education in the country, citing the benefits, trends and huge potentials in the global tech space.
The Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Richlance International, Faithful Samuel, made the call during an interview at the official launch and award ceremony of the company held in Lagos.
He also urged the government to invest in digital technology and in youths with innovative ideas.
Samuel said: “My suggestion, my advice is that government should adopt tech curriculum for our primary schools up to our secondary schools.
“We should do away with some of the things we have currently in their curriculum. Let our children start learning about tech from primary school to secondary school because tech has taken over the world as it is now.
“It is just like what is happening here in Richlance. What we are doing is such that with your smart phone, you can become a shareholder in more than 1,000 different companies.”
According to him, “At a time when some companies are packing up and leaving the country, we are setting up shop and we are here to stay because we are not depending on one source of income. We have over 1,000 plus digital services people can make use of on our platform right from the comfort of their home.
“Government should invest more in digital technology and support youths with innovative ideas.
“Though, I’m not holding brief for or condoning the ways of some of our youths, who engage in cyber crime, but, I believe government can either eradicate or greatly reduce their number by investing more in digital technology and providing support for youths with creative and innovative ideas. Sooner than later, the positive results from this support would become clear and the world would stand still for Nigeria.”
The event which was graced by the presence of dignitaries from government and private sectors.
A total of 28 cars were given to top promoters of the company at the event.
A beneficiary of the car award, Mr. Wisdom Benson, said: “Richlance International has given out 28 cars. And I am a recipient of one of them. I qualified for the car award after about one month of vigorously promoting the company. Richlance is poised to empower people with good health and wealth.”
He expressed excitement for the award and explained that unlike some other companies, Richlance has come to stay, as the firm has a wide range of products that are in high demand and provide solution to health problems and digital payment solutions.
