Group charges youths to shun social vices

By

THE Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Smobile Group, Kingsley Adonu has charged the youths to shun any form of social vices.

According to him, when social voices are shunned, it makes them utilise opportunities in their domain to better their worth.

The CEO gave this charge on his appointment as Patron of Students Union Government ( SUG), University of Nigeria Nsukka ( UNN).

President, SUG of UNN, Enoch Utazi, on behalf of the students, said Adonu’s appointment was in the interest of the union, following his antecedents in youth and student constituency both within the varsity and outside.

Adonu has been described as a visionary entrepreneur and the Founder of the Smobile Group, a conglomerate synonymous with excellence and diversity.

Under his astute leadership, Smobile Group has emerged as a major partner for MTN, as evidenced by the impactful presence of the Smobile brand in the telecommunications landscape.

“It is out of nostalgia and heart full of gratitude that we unanimously appoint him as the Patron of the Students Union Government. We believe that this appointment would open more doors for the UNN Students,” Utazi said.

In his acceptance letter, Adonu thanked the student body for the honour and pledged continued support to the SUG and youth in the community.

“I am delighted by this honour you have done for me by making me your patron. Truly, the youth is the beacon of hope of the society and that is the reason I leverage every opportunity I have to champion the course for the digital skills development of our young ones.

“Today, there is no course of study in school that does not have an element of technology influencing it. For this reason, S Mobile Tech Hub was instituted to reequip our youth with hands- on skills needed in today’s workplace and entrepreneurship. Very soon, you will see the hub established in the Nsukka area as a complement to the university’s management effort to equip our youth for today and tomorrow’s success,” he said.
