President Bola Tinubu has announced a 30-day confab for Nigerian youths to discuss challenges confronting them.
Tinubu made this announcement on Tuesday during his 64th Independence Day Anniversary Broadcast.
He said in a bid to bequeath a worthy future to the youths, the government cannot do it without making them its architects.
“Considering this, I am pleased to announce the gathering of a National Youth Conference.
This conference will be a platform to address the diverse challenges and opportunities confronting our young people, who constitute more than 60 per cent of our population.
It will provoke meaningful dialogue and empower our young people to participate actively in nation-building.
By ensuring that their voices are heard in shaping the policies that impact their lives, we are creating a pathway for a brighter tomorrow.
The 30-day Confab will unite young people nationwide to collaboratively develop solutions to issues such as education, employment, innovation, security, and social justice.
Through this confab, it will be our job as leaders to ensure that their aspirations are at the heart of the conference’s deliberations.
The government will thoroughly consider and implement the recommendations and outcomes from this forum as we remain resolute in our mission to build a more inclusive, prosperous, and united Nigeria,” the president said.
