Give young people utmost priority in your administration – Yoruba youths tell Tinubu

By Musa Baba Adamu

Oodua Youth Coalition, a Yoruba youth organisation, has urged President Bola Tinubu to keep his promise to give youth inclusion a high priority in his administration.
In a statement signed by Tayo Oluyi, its national coordinator, the group urged Tinubu to remember the pledges he made to youths during his campaign and inauguration speeches.
Oluyi underlined the significance of building a foundation for the younger generation and keeping commitments made to them, especially in terms of granting them important positions in the government.
“Tinubu had made several youth-oriented promises during his campaign, which he reiterated in his inaugural speech. We hope that he will follow through with practical youth inclusion initiatives,” he stated.
He urged the new president to keep his promise of leading an administration that is friendly to youth and to disregard anyone who might try to obstruct such efforts.
Oluyi also emphasised the potential of Nigeria’s young people and urged Tinubu to take advantage of their abilities to reposition the nation.
The coordinator cautioned against wasting such opportunities while asking the youth to take advantage of any opportunities provided by the administration.
