The National President of Youth Wing of the Christian Association of Nigeria, YOWICAN, Patriot Dolly Simon, has appealed to the Federal Government to provide a conducive environment that will make youths excel in their choosing careers.
Simon, who made the appeal while playing host to the Senior Special Assistant to the President on Student and Youth Affairs, Comrade Jude Imagwe, in Abuja, also called on youths to unite in prayer and strive to leave behind a good legacy.
“Federal Government should give the youth a platform to excel, we have so many potential youths but lack the needed environment to strive”, he said.
Simon admonished youths to refuse to be used to perpetrate illegality or cause mayhem that could jeopardize the country’s unity, noting that, even if government wanted to perform, the insecurity in the country is giving the government an opportunity to give excuses for non-performance.
Responding, Imagwe assured Nigerian youths that he would champion all issues pertaining to their empowerment and not to allow the paraphernalia of the office to derail him from fighting the odds against them, while challenging the media to project the country positively.
