Osun State Governor Rauf Aregbesola, has challenged Nigerian youths to wake-up and hold firmly to their future by being productive and hardworking.

He said for Nigeria to reclaim it glorious position of providing genuine and outstanding leadership among the comity of nations; her youths must ‎rise to the present challenges and take their historic position to lead the black race.

Aregbesola stated this at the 2018 South-West Conference of the Junior Chamber International (JCI), held at Leisure Spring Hotels, Oshogbo.

Represented by the Commissioner for Special Duties, Mudashiru Toogun, he described youths as most energetic, productive, proactive, as well as the hope for better future, saying youths must not be found wanting in efforts to take the country to greater heights.

He called on Nigerian youths to take the bull by the horn by contributing their very quota to the growth and development of the country as “the strength of a nation is measured by the strength of her youths.”

Aregbesola warned youths against getting involved in social vices but rather champion the virtues of hard work, integrity, honesty, pursuit of knowledge and the quest for innovation and path finding.

He said for Nigeria to actualise her set objectives the youths must refrain from acts capable of rubbing the corporate integrity and reputation of the country‎ in the mud.
