“I am with you!” This was my message today to the heart of our nation - our Youth, as I inaugurated the National Youth Conference planning committee. To our Nigerian Youth: You hold the advancement of this economy in your hands. You represent over 60% of our population. I will continue to help navigate, push and lift the heavy weights so I can clear the path for you to have a great future. I will do everything to make Nigeria a better place for young people and all Nigerians. #BetOnNigeria

I received the news of the passing of one of the Afenifere leaders, Pa Ayo Adebanjo, with profound sorrow. Nigeria has lost a political leader whose decades of unwavering struggle for justice, democracy, and national unity have left an indelible mark on our nation’s history.
