The three young people shared with Bornito de Sousa the main lines of the project that have had "a notable contribution to the community and to the growth in the number of English language enthusiasts in Cazenga", says a statement sent to VerAngola.

The Vice-President of the Republic heard from the three entrepreneurs the desire to spread the English language, replicating the club for all schools in the country. The aim, they explained, is to put into practice the experiences of Rwanda and South Korea, which adopted language teaching for children from an early age.

The club's president and executive director, Mário Cuambua, stresses that more than one language, English has become a "culture" in Cazenga, where it remains the axis that brings together exclusion and takes young people out of delinquency, in a process that has generated new dynamics in the club.

Justifying this is the fact that new members are constantly arriving and dozens of new small groups are being formed throughout the country, for example in Gabela and N'dalatando, at a time when the initiative has the support of the Ministry. Public Administration, Labor and Social Security, the United States Embassy and Exxon Mobil.

Until now, the "Clube Jovens Amigos do Inglês de Angola", whose facilities are equipped with a library, multimedia equipment and classrooms, continues to strengthen the movement around the English language in the municipality of Cazenga, whose tradition in learning and improving of the language comes from the 80s, driven by Paulo Sebastião Pinheiro "Mr. Pô", also known as the "evangelist of the English language" in that municipality.

This Wednesday, after receiving the mentors of the club, the Vice President of the Republic also received, in audience, the singer "Bass", artistic name of Filipe Lupango, with whom he addressed, among others, aspects related to art and culture .
