No government is more committed to the welfare of serious youth like this government, the ripple effects of these youth empowerment programs will be felt in the long run as we’re already seeing massive innovations bn sponsored and are yielding positive outcomes.

I feel much bad have been done than good earlier before this Government. More so the youth are not ready and can never applaud this Government for anything good even from the comment section.

With all due respect, Sir, you and your administration are not capable to do this. Dashing people stipends does not lift them out poverty. We need a working system and that you can not provide.
