President Bola Tinubu, Vice President Kashim Shettima, and All Progressive Congress National Chairman Abdullahi Ganduje will host the Progressive Young Leaders Summit from September 3rd to 5th, 2024, to engage and empower young Nigerians.
The event aims to bridge the gap between youth and government, foster intergenerational dialogue, and provide a platform for young Nigerians to engage with the Renewed Hope Agenda. The programme features Ministerial Town Hall sessions where participants will engage with government leaders on critical issues.
Vice President Shettima will declare the event open, while President Tinubu will receive the communique and give a keynote. The summit is themed “Shaping the Future We Want: from Restiveness to Inclusion, Action and Development.”
The APC National Youth Leader, Dr. Dayo Israel, said: “By tapping into the passion and innovative spirit of young Nigerians, this summit aims to shape a new Nigeria that truly reflects the aspirations of the next generation. We believe this event will inspire young people to take ownership of the Renewed Hope Agenda and work collectively towards its realization.”
“This summit is designed to ensure that young Nigerians are not just observers but active contributors to the formation of a new Nigeria under the Renewed Hope Agenda. By the end of the Summit, it is expected that young leaders will be empowered to take concrete steps towards realizing the Nigeria of our dreams,” Dr. Israel concluded.
The event is free to attend, but registration is mandatory, with over 3,000 participants expected.
