He said: “I commended the Special Assistant to the President on Youth Initiatives (Monitoring & Delivery), Ms Titilope Gbadamosi for complementing the efforts of the Ministry in ensuring that the average youth in Nigeria is aware of and benefits from the programs and interventions of the government.

“While recounting the success made through the Nigerian Youth Helpdesk, an initiative of the Ministry towards ensuring that all complaints from Nigerian youth are attended to, I emphasized that the Youth Activities Dashboard is a further addition to that effort.”

He further thanked President Tinubu for his unwavering commitment to Nigerian youth, describing him as a father figure determined to maintain a strong connection between his administration and the citizens, particularly the younger generation.
