A hybrid multi-level marketing company in Lagos has called on the Federal Government to incorporate technological studies in primary education in the country, citing the benefits, trends, and huge potential in the global tech space.
The Chief Executive Officer of Richlance International, Faithful Samuel, made this call during an interview at the official launch and award ceremony of the company held in Ikeja, Lagos on Monday.
He also urged the Federal Government to invest in digital technology and youth development, particularly through technology, to boost the innovative community for the betterment of the country.
He said, “My suggestion, my advice is that the 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 and 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 smartphone you can become a shareholder in more than one thousand different companies. 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 one thousand digital services that people can make use of on our platform right from the comfort of their homes.
“The government should invest more in digital Technology and support youths with Innovative Ideas. Though I am not holding brief for or condoning the ways of some of our youths who engage in cybercrime, I believe the 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, rather 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 both government functionaries, captains of industries, and celebrities, saw a total of twenty-eight cars given to top promoters of the company at the event.
One of the beneficiaries of the car award, Wisdom Benson, said, “Richlance International has given out twenty-eight 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 over the award and explained that, unlike some other companies, Richlance parades a wide range of products that are said to be in high demand and provide solutions to health problems and digital payment solutions.
