He announced that two youth representatives would be given the opportunity to attend the apex meeting of Onigbongbo LCDA to ensure that the voices of the youth are heard at the highest level.
While seeking to make activities of the upcoming International Youth Day youth-centered, Hon. Adebanjo sought their opinions.
Environmental sanitation, youth sensitization and symposium, solar energy training and youth dialogue sessions were favoured by the Youths. Others include skills acquisition, youth communication platform, sports tournament and campaign against drug abuse
Hon. Moyosore appreciated their suggestions. He reiterated that his office is not a personal one but a platform for collective growth. In a statement made available by his Chief Press Secretary, Fashina Olaoluwa, Hon. Moyosore is quoted: “Eevery youth leader must come together as one.”
