Some of those who have completed the program have already been placed in different job opportunities and other empowerment programs across the country.
Pastor Dorcas urged parliament to consider a fund that will cater for rehabilitation of the addicts saying the program is very expensive.
“We intend to have this tournament grow and spread in the entire country and change the lives of millions of our boys. This will be a great score for the fight against drugs and substance abuse. We must say no to drugs,” Pastor Dorcas stated.
