JIMMY PAM JERRY EXTENDS PROJECT S&S TO BUKEN ACADEMY DWEI DU
Director General,
Project S&S (School & Sports) and Principal Special Assistant on media to the Governor of Plateau State,
Jimmy Pam Jerry was honoured to be at Buken Academy Dwei Du in Jos South LGC as a special guest to speak to the students on the topic "Overcoming all Obstacles" with the theme "Daring to Achieve".
Jimmy Pam Jerry in a goodwill message challenged the students to diversify and go into sports even in their academic pursued as they go into the wider world. Schooling shouldn't be a barrier to pursue a career in sports nor sports a barrier to studying.
The DG Project S&S took time to challenge the students on why they should Dare to Achieve in sports not just in academics, using himself as an example on how he was able to combine going to school and training to become a professional football referee now officiating in the Nigerian Premier Football League (NPFL), which is the peak of football refereeing in every country. These gave birth to the idea of Project School and Sports six years now. An initiative that has encouraged students never to drop-out of school because of a career in sports, an initiative that has been providing support and funding to gifted youths in sports to be in school.
Jimmy Pam charged the students by encouraging them never to relent or allow any obstacle to discourage them rather they should confront every obstacle and be optimistic about life and dare to achieve greatness.
Jimmy Pam Jerry donated some sports equipments to the best athletes of the school (male and female) and also advised their parents to always support their children's ambition especially in sports because gone are the days when parents bully their kids for going out to play football.
The DG Project S&S recalled with nostalgia how he was spanked by his parents each time he comes back from the football field during his primary and high school days. In his words "today, where football has taken me my Bsc certificate is yet to take me".
Jimmy Pam Jerry is a teacher, an active Football Referee currently officiating in the Nigerian Professional Football League (NPFL), Secretary of Jos North Referee's Society, Founder of Project School & Sports (S&S), Principal Special Assistant on media to the Executive Governor of Plateau State, His Excellency Barrister Caleb Mannaseh Mutfwang.
