A group, the Nigeria Youth Organisation (NYO), has said that it will bring about reforms to make Nigerian youths contribute positively to the growth and development of the country.
The newly-installed National President of NYO, Duke Alamboye, who gave the assurance during a national stakeholders’ meeting in Lagos, said NYO is one the oldest youth organisations in Nigeria and thus would drive the positive change the country desires.
Alamboye, who commended the determination of President Bola Tinubu to change the narratives, noted that NYO would work closely with the Ministry of Youths and other relevant government agencies to ensure that Nigerian youths are involved in governance so that their great potential could be harnessed and add value to the nation’s economic growth.
“We will begin to support the good policies of the government and go against those ones that are not in conformity with the development of our country. After my tenure, there will be a standard and renounced organisation,” he added.
According to him, NYO will also play a major role in tackling the current security challenges the country is grappling with, saying that the organisation plans to commence a nationwide advocacy and sensitisation of youths on security and development across the country.
Also speaking, the National Secretary of the Board of Trustee (BoT) of NYO, Dr Olusegun Adeleye, noted that the organisation had planned to organise social empowerment programmes for Nigerian youths, among others.
