Vice President Kashim Shettima has restated the commitment of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s administration to support and empower more Nigerian youths to excel in their chosen vocations.
According to him, the president holds Nigerian youths in high esteem, and his commitment is evident in his appointments and the administration’s policies and initiatives such as the Youth Investment Fund, iDICE Programme, and the National Youth Development Bank, among others.
The vice president spoke yesterday when he received the leadership of the All Progressives Congress (APC) youth wing led by the party’s national youth leader, Mr. Dayo Israel, on a courtesy visit to the Presidential Villa.
Shettima in a statement by his spokesman, Stanley Nkwocha, said apart from addressing genuine concerns affecting the youths, the administration’s focus on young persons is premised on the trust and confidence the president has in them, stressing that “the youths are the lifeblood of any nation and Mr. President acknowledges this fact.”
