The Federal Government has opened up on the reason for including more youths in the country’s decision making policy.
Speaking at the grand finale of the 60th Anniversary celebration of the National Youth Council of Nigeria (NYCN) in Port Harcourt, Vice President Kashim Shettima explained that no nation can plan for the future without involving the young generation in decision-making.
Shettima, who was represented by his Technical Adviser on Women and Youth Engagement, Hauwa Liman, reassured Nigerian youths of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s commitment to their inclusion in all levels of governance.
He emphasized that youth inclusion is a fundamental principle of the Tinubu administration, stating that it remains the only government that has provided significant opportunities for young people.
“His Excellency, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has assembled some of the finest young people in the country to form the backbone of his government, and this is based on his belief that youth inclusion is not just a promise, but the cornerstone of our administration’s vision for Nigeria,” Shettima said.
The Vice President noted that the Tinubu administration has created unprecedented opportunities for youths to thrive in various sectors. He mentioned that many of the administration’s ministers are young people, reflecting the government’s commitment to youth empowerment.
“This administration has opened doors for young people like never before. We have prioritised initiatives that empower youths in education, entrepreneurship, and the creative and data industries,” Shettima added.
