The lawmaker representing Osogbo/Olorunda/Irepodun/Orolu Federal Constituency in the House of Representatives, Olubukola Oyewo, has said President-elect, Bola Tinubu, will operate a youth-centred administration.
In a statement issued at the weekend by his media and publicity team, Oyewo listed mitigation of the crisis and rot in the education sector, human capital development and youth empowerment as some of the key areas the next president and his team will focus on.
The Osun federal legislator assured that Tinubu’s developmental framework, as captured in his manifesto, will give priority to education and youth empowerment as a means of rebuilding the country.
According to the parliamentarian, the former Lagos State governor’s antecedent and achievements in the past are evidence that he has the capacity, tenacity and political will to implement life-changing programmes for youths in the country.
“After a careful assessment of Asiwaju Bola Tinubu’s track record as well as his well-publicized agenda for Nigeria, I am confident that the incoming government is going to be a youth-focused and friendly one,” Oyewo assured.
“The 80-page manifesto of the next administration, titled ‘Hope Renewed’, is set to rejuvenate the economy by unleashing the strength, intellectual ability and energy of Nigerian youths. The incoming government is certainly going to take bold steps to reduce unemployment and create more jobs for our youngsters.”
The Deputy Chairman, of the House of Representatives Committee on Water Resources stated that youth empowerment is crucial for economic emancipation and nation-building.
Oyewo further stressed the commitment of the All Progressives Congress (APC) to create a thriving and conducive environment for youths to complete their education, gain employment, start a business, and earn a decent wage right here in Nigeria without the desire to emigrate.
He posited that the incoming government is set to facilitate an inclusive business environment, where women and youths are empowered to participate. It will provide the enabling atmosphere, the technical support and training that many of Nigerian youths require in a bid to attain self-employment, financial independence and live a productive life.
“I am sure the hope of millions of Nigerian youths will be renewed when Ahmed Bola Tinubu is sworn into office on May 29, ” the APC chieftain said in his statement.
