HAVEK Leadership Academy, a youth capacity building and leadership training platform of the Nasir-Lahi Fathil Society (NASFAT), says it has trained over 4,800 Nigerians since its establishment in 2019.
The General Manager of HAVEK, AbdulWasiu Ayoola, disclosed this at the annual general meeting of the academy chaired by Mr Niyi Yusuf, who is the president of NASFAT.
Ayoola explained that HAVEK’s focus transcends leadership training, but also encompasses social life and entrepreneurship.
He said: “We observed a dearth of quality leaders and the institute exists to change the ugly narrative. Our focus is the youths and professionals. Our programmes, apart from the leadership training, focus more on social life and entrepreneurship. By December this year, we will graduate the current set of women and youths.”

Yusuf said the academy, aside from cultivating leadership qualities in the youth, also fortifies participants with well-grounded Islamic principles and solid ethical foundation.
