The Federal Minstry of Youth Development works with various organizations in achieving its aim and goal of empowering young people within Nigeria.
However, since inception of the Ministry, Youth Organizations within the country has been having issues with relating with the Ministry largely because of the existing communication system and lack of information on the possible ways to involve young people in the Ministry's project.
In fairness to the Ministry it is important to note that they would only be able to work with the young people that they know and are familiar with.
It is therefore paramount for youth organizations within Nigeria to work towards getting the recognition status with the Ministry ...This would go a long way in fostering a good working relationship with the Ministry.
The Ministry is currently working on developing the entrepreneurship capacity of young people in Nigeria and i see this as a great opportunity for young people to be involved with the workings of the Ministry, especially because the currebt Directors, Permanent Secretary, minster and the management team of the ministry are interested in working with active youth organizations
I have discussed with the staff in the department that processes the recognition process and I have been told that Youth Organizations should write directly to the minister for youth
If you are a youth organization working in Nigeria and you wish to be actively involved in the working dynamics of the Minstry of Youth, please send your letter seeking for recognition and working partnership and attach report(s) of your projects with pictorial evidence to:
Senator Olasunkanmi Akinlabi
The honorable Minister
Federal Ministry of Youth Development
3rd Floor Block C
Head of Service Building
Federal secretariat
Abuja.
