Katsina youths ask govt to involve then in state activities
YOUTHS in Katsina State on Sunday asked
the state government to evolve programmes that would ameliorate their
sufferings and allow them to actively participate in the issues
concerning the state.
The youths, who belong to the Katsina
State Youth Senate, held an inaugural parliamentary session in Katsina,
the state capital, where they nominated ‘senators’ from various youths
organisations in the state to sponsor motions on the issues concerning
youths.
They also offered suggestions on how government should tackle such issues.
Among the youth organisations whose
representatives were at the event were Sir Ahmadu Bello Foundation,
Blind Children Intellectual Club, National Youth Council of Nigeria,
Arewa Youths Development, Muryar Talakwa, and the Movement for the
Restoration of Northern Dignity.
The youths deliberated on motions
such as the high cost of living in the state, women and contemporary
democracy in Nigeria and the roles of civil society in democracy.
