INTERNATIONAL YOUTH DAY 2026
A MESSAGE TO THE YOUTHS OF DUNUKOFIA |NJIKOKA |ANAOCHA FEDERAL CONSTITUENCY
Today, as we commemorate International Youth Day, I celebrate the dreams, aspirations, courage, and determination of the young people of Dunukofia | Njikoka | Anaocha Federal Constituency.
I believe in the dreams of our youths.
I believe in the young person who wakes up every morning with a vision of building a better life. I believe in the graduate searching for an opportunity, the entrepreneur struggling to grow a business, the skilled young man or woman seeking a platform to showcase their talent, and every young person who refuses to give up despite the challenges around them.
Your dreams are not too big. Your aspirations are not unrealistic. You deserve a society that gives you the opportunity to succeed.
If given the mandate to represent you at the Federal House of Representatives, I will make youth development one of the important pillars of my representation. I will use the opportunities available within the federal system to advocate for employment opportunities, skills acquisition, entrepreneurship support, educational advancement, technology, innovation, and meaningful youth empowerment.
I will not make promises that I cannot keep. Rather, I will commit myself to purposeful representation, where the interests and aspirations of our youths remain part of the conversation whenever opportunities for our constituency are being considered.
I will not let you down.
I will carry your hopes with me. I will listen to your concerns. I will advocate for your interests. And wherever there is an opportunity to open a door for the young people of DNA, I will do everything within my constitutional responsibility and capacity to ensure that our youths are not left behind.
Our youths must not only be celebrated during International Youth Day. They must be empowered every day.
The future we desire for DNA begins with what we do today.
To every young person in Dunukofia, Njikoka, and Anaocha: keep dreaming, keep learning, keep building, and never give up on your potential.
Your dream can become a reality.
I believe in you.
I believe in your dreams.
I believe in the future of DNA.
Happy International Youth Day 2026!
