Olawande said at a news conference in Abuja yesterday that with the launch of the portal, the long-awaited youth Confab has commenced with the registration of delegates and virtual consultations.

 

The confab is a platform established by the Federal Government as a structured avenue for young people to contribute to national discussions and policy formulation in a way that ensures their ideas translate into action.

 

It will brainstorm and propose workable solutions on how to tackle critical issues affecting youths, such as unemployment, political representation, education and healthcare, among others.

 

President Bola Tinubu had on March 10, 2025, inaugurated a 44-member Planning Committee for the  30-day Confab. The President first announced the plan during his Independence Day broadcast on October 1st, 2024.

 

Olawande emphasised that the youth gathering is not another talk shop but a genuine, participatory platform that empowers every young Nigerian to contribute to government decision-making, particularly on youth-centric issues.

 

The minister explained that there would be zonal consolidation meetings across the six geopolitical zones, where grassroots opinions would be harmonised.

 

The last lap of the Confab will be the National Conference in Abuja, where policy recommendations will be co-created and presented for consideration at the highest levels of government.

 

He said, “This is more than just a conference. It is a generational turning point, a national movement, and a call to action. It is a platform for us to listen, learn, and lead together.

 

“This conference will provide young Nigerians from every ward, community, state, and the diaspora the opportunity to unite, engage, and reshape the future of our nation.

 

“With over 70 per cent of our population under the age of 35, it is clear that Nigeria’s destiny is directly linked to the creativity, energy, and aspirations of her youth.

 

“Now, more than ever, it is time to transform our collective frustrations into solutions, and our hopes into actionable policies,” he stated.
