Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 51861, member: 636"] President Bola Tinubu urged the Niger Delta Development Commission to redirect regional youth from violent activities toward business ventures during Saturday's commemoration of the agency's 25th anniversary in Port Harcourt. George Akume, Secretary to the Government of the Federation, delivered the president's message at the celebration's grand finale. The president emphasized that the commission must prioritize constructive youth engagement over traditional infrastructure projects. Tinubu called for collaborative efforts between the NDDC and the Ministry of Youth and Development to maximize available programs. The administration views youth development as a central policy objective requiring immediate attention. Human capital development serves as the primary measure of regional progress according to the president's assessment. The NDDC should guide young people toward entrepreneurship and legitimate self-improvement opportunities rather than militant activities. Tinubu stressed that economic growth depends heavily on the commission's continued effectiveness in the region. Community development represents a personal priority for the current administration moving forward. The president highlighted his government's commitment through rapid board appointments and enhanced agency funding. The commission received increased financial resources to fulfill its regional obligations under the current leadership. Tinubu demonstrated his dedication to Niger Delta advancement through swift organizational changes at the agency's helm. The president's early administrative decisions reflected his strategic focus on regional development initiatives. Enhanced funding levels enable the NDDC to expand its operational capacity significantly. These financial commitments underscore the administration's long-term vision for sustainable regional transformation. [/QUOTE]
