2023: Gobir Outlined Agenda, Promises To Prioritise Youth Development
We have a better understanding of what the youths are facing in Kwara,
Waziri Yakubu Gobir, the Young Progressive Party (YPP) Gubernatorial candidate in Kwara State, has made a significant campaign promise to focus on youth development if elected in February, next year.
Gobir made this known on Friday, with stakeholders at Oke-Ero Local Government while he outlined his plan to significantly invest in programs that support the education and growth of young people.
His plan includes increasing funding for schools and offering job training and apprenticeship opportunities for those who may not pursue higher education.
According to him, “we have a better understanding of what the youths are facing in Kwara, hence why I have decided to run.”
“We have done so many programs through The Gobir Foundation, where thousands of Kwarans have benefited and still benefit. By His grace, if we are elected come 2023, we will prioritise youth development and tackle the high poverty rate in Kwara.” He added.
