HON. TIZA RECEIVES UPDATE ON BENUE YOUTH HELP DESK WEBSITE DEVELOPMENT, AS GBENDA LAUDS INITIATIVE
The Honourable Commissioner for Youth, Sports and Creativity and Director, City Boy Movement, Tiza Isaac Imojime Orya, has received a first-hand briefing on the progress of the Benue Youth Help Desk Website currently under development.
The briefing took place yesterday at the headquarters of the Benue Digital Infrastructure Company (BDIC) in Makurdi during a joint meeting between the BDIC technical team led by Samson Dzungwe and the Commissioner's team led by Mrs Deborah Ikyoive. The meeting was convened at the instance of the Honourable Commissioner to review the progress and operational framework of the platform.
The Youth Help Desk website is designed as a digital platform aimed at providing young people across the state with an accessible channel to job opportunities, report issues, lodge complaints, and seek assistance on matters affecting their welfare.
Also present at the meeting was the Senior Special Assistant to the Governor on Illegal Levies and Youth Mobilization, Hon. Terver Gbenda, who commended the initiative and described it as a potential legacy project of the Commissioner if successfully launched and fully operational.
According to Gbenda, the platform will play a crucial role in curbing illegal activities within the state while also providing students and young people with a credible avenue to channel their complaints and seek timely intervention from relevant authorities.
He further noted that the initiative aligns with the broader efforts of the state government to promote transparency, accountability, and youth inclusion in governance.
Hon. Tiza reiterated his commitment to ensuring that the platform becomes fully operational, stressing that the Youth Help Desk will serve as a vital bridge between the government and young people across Benue State.
