The National Youth Council of Nigeria (NYCN) on Wednesday announced plans to formally unveil its political agenda for 2017 to 2023.
Mr Gambo Jagindi, the Special Adviser on Media and Publicity to Mr Murtala Garba, President of NYCN, made this known in a statement released to the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Abuja.
The Council said it would also launch its campaign in support of local government autonomy during the 4th Nigeria Youth Democracy Lecture and Day of Honour 2017, adding that it was fully ready to mobilise its members across the 774 local government areas of the country on May 30, for this purpose.
Jagindi further said the lecture by NYCN is to assess the state of democracy in Nigeria.
According to him, the event was also geared towards articulating an agenda for the youths to contribute meaningfully towards the development and sustenance of democracy and good governance in Nigeria. He noted that youths could only make meaningful contribution if they were being constantly supported by government and the society at large.
More so, Jagindi said the youths had enjoyed the support of well-meaning Nigerians, politicians and corporate organisations in this regard.
