Youth Employment, and Entrepreneurial
Engagement, a window to full Empowerment- Moyosore Ogunlewe
As a new approach to finding lasting solution to youth unemployment, the Executive Chairman of kosofe Local Government, Barrister Moyosore Ogunlewe has lauded the Executive Governor of Lagos State, Mr. Babajide Olusola Sanwolu for his initiative in tackling youth unemployment via acquisition of youth entrepreneurial skills training.
Ogunlewe reaffirms his administration’s commitment to youth development and skill acquisition which form the Hallmark of his cardinal programmes.
He added further that any government that neglects its array of youths and pays lip services to their idleness is programing itself for failure. Youths, Ogunlewe restated, are unarguably the salt that seasons the Nation. As a youth himself, empowering them he added is like rebuilding his constituency.
Ogunlewe wants the youth to shun violence and other vices and get themselves re- engaged in this new state government initiative designed to reshape their outlook.
Speaking in similar vein, the Hon. Commissioner for Wealth creation & Employment, Hon. Mrs. Yetunde Arobieke, said the state government took this decision because of the numerical strength of the unemployed youths in the state, adding that idle minds are potential workshop for trouble makers. She was particularly elated for the programme being organized at kosofe her constituency particularly that the three Chairmen in the three councils are also youths
She advised the participants to jettison their lackadaisical approach and be part of the training just like Epe youths who received the programme with a measured applause.
At the joint programme were the Chairmen of two sister councils, Mayor Dele Osinowo of Agboyi-Ketu LCDA and Hon. Princess Samiat Abolanle Bada, of ikosi-isheri LCDA and other dignitaries.
