Peer Education Training on Commercial Motorcycle Operators in FCT
Related to country: Nigeria

Translations available in: English (original) | French | Spanish | Italian | German | Portuguese | Swedish | Russian | Dutch | Arabic

It was very difficult to convince them to come up to train as Peer Educators on HIV Other Prevention project. Few of them finally turned up. The others left because the transport fee to be given to them was so small and did not measure up with what they got each day riding their bykes.

At the end of the training, the commercial motorcycle operators, a.k.a. Okada riders, agreed with the fact that it was a good idea to sit down to learn on life skills especially as it had to do with HIV prevention. The money aspect did not matter again.

They are now Peer Educators and authorities in area of HIV prevention.

This is a lesson to all, that although money is good, knowledge is best.
