Students Comments

I want the camp leaders to know that what I saw, what I heard and how I felt have now inculcated a mindset within me that I poses very special potentials and abilities and I can develop upon it. This OMA camp has helped a lot. God richly bless them.
It will advice that friend of mine to come to the next camp because OMA is the best organization in the whole world and OMA can help him to develop a positive growth mindset which can help him to plan for the future and he can also make a lot of friends like KP, Andrew, Pious etc.
The camp was amazing. I enjoyed everything about the camp. And I have learnt so much, which will help my social life and academic life. Thank you OMA Camp leaders for the experience.
I felt happy because being my second time to come for a wonderful camp was amazing. Last year camp I applied some of the things we learned and it helped me a lot. To come to this camp was excited.
I would say that person should go on and sign up for the next OMA Camp because he or she will learn a lot and also will have many experiences to share. Joining OMA camp will help you achieve knowledge about how to manage your self and how to control your emotions and manage your time properly.
The session we had on our calling. I think this is what people holding a government position in the country should know, that they are not working for themselves but for the nation. This is the true meaning of LEADERSHIP.
I will tell them that Open Mind Africa is a very special organization, which really helps the student in Africa to know their goals in life and how to go about those goals they have set for themselves. So they can sign up for the next OMA camp.
