President Bola Tinubu has announced that a national youth conference organized by the federal government will commence in the first quarter of 2025.
Tinubu made this statement on Wednesday during his New Year message to Nigerians.
The president emphasized that the conference is a reflection of his administration’s commitment to youth inclusiveness and their role as nation-builders.
“The Ministry of Youth will soon announce the modalities for selecting the conference’s representatives from our diverse, youthful population,” he stated.
Tinubu also urged governors and local council chairpersons to collaborate with the federal government on agriculture, livestock, and tax reforms to propel the country forward.
“I commend the governors who have embraced our Compressed Natural Gas initiative by launching CNG-propelled public transport. I also congratulate those who have adopted electric vehicles as part of our national energy mix and transition,” he remarked.
“The federal government will always offer necessary assistance to the states,” he added.
“To all citizens, your sacrifices have not been in vain over the past 19 months. I assure you they will not be in vain even in the months ahead. Together, let us stay the course of nation-building,” the president stated.
He also revealed that he would launch a National Values Charter in the first quarter of 2025 to encourage patriotism and national pride among citizens.
