Ambassador Adeniyi noted that in view of this, he is determined to do his bits to end the lacks and sufferings of the youths with lots of empowerment programmes that would better their lots all over the world.
He maintained that such programmes would create among others opportunities to empower youths as well as make them self-reliant and relieve the burden of focusing on government and public office holders for one assistance or the other.
The WYO-UN Ambassador however asked the youths to return their forms to the point of collection so that the data provided on the forms would be used to plan and ascertain the needs and quantity of the empowerment materials to prepare for the youths.
Ambassador Adeniyi also tasked Nigerian youths to steer clear of stealing, robbery and other social vices, saying, opportunities presented by his office would bring an end to myriads of lacks and problems facing the youths across the world.
