Obaseki Tells Youths Strategy To Be Part Of Nation’s Decision Making
“embarked on several reforms and projects “
Governor of Edo State Godwin Obaseki has advised Nigerian youths on how to be able to contribute to decision-making processes.
Obaseki urged youths to “urge our youths to become more politically active and involved”
The Governor gave the advice in a post headlined “International Youth Day Message” that reads…
As we join the rest of the world, today, to commemorate the International Youth Day, we want to remind our youths of their immense role in advancing global peace and achieving sustainable growth and development.
In recognition of these indispensable roles, we have embarked on several reforms and projects to provide Edo youths with the right environment to succeed, equipping them with in-demand skills to thrive in a technology-driven 21st century and ensuring that they are adequately empowered to contribute their quota to the development of their immediate communities.
Through our state’s skills development agency, EdoJobs, we have sustained these youth-focused projects and programmes and are proud to declare that Edo State is fast becoming the technology hub of Nigeria. We urge our youths to leverage the opportunity provided by these government reforms and programmes to become globally competitive, providing innovative solutions to societal problems.
We will continue to support young people, ensuring that they are adequately represented in government processes and decision-making.
As we go into the 2023 elections, we urge our youths to become more politically active and involved because it is in participation that they are more able to contribute to decision making processes, inputting their creativity and innovative potential to proffer solutions to societal problems.
