Sunday Dare, Minister of Youth and Sports Development, on Sunday via his Twitter page in celebration of Maiden National Youth Day said that the time had come for Nigerian youths to sit with the government and negotiate their initiatives to effect a change.
According to him:
“With the protests that have occurred across the country, Nigeria stands at the cusp of change in youth development. Already, that change has begun. What is needed is to deepen the youth initiatives and accelerate the onboarding of beneficiaries in a transparent and effectual manner.”
As a country, we are blessed with a bulging youth population that can turn out to be the country’s greatest resource if we make the right investments and in a timely manner.
- “The protest of our youth shall not be in vain. It is time to engage government constructively. Come to the table. I say to the youth -Your time has come,” he said.
