Press statement below...
Gentle men of the press

We wish to commend the Media in there reportage and proactive dedication by ensuring the entrenchment of democratic values.



This is a press statement on the just concluded 1st Northern youth Summit held on Tuesday, 12 May, 2015 at the Arewa House under the Chairmanship of Alh. Ibrahim Commassie, the Chairman of Arewa Consultative Forum (ACF).



Challenges



Arguably, the Northern Nigerian youths are in a dilemma: Unemployment has hit threatening heights as only one out of ten young people can boast of gainful employment. Education has been in a sorry state attributable to a good number of factors. The rising spate of insurgency got its boost from the increasing social risk that the northern young has faced unabated. A researcher mentioned in his thesis: '' it is evidenced that social-inclusion for young northerners has seen no improvement for decades, it can only be fair to say the regions youths' have their social status in comatose''. In particular there is a high degree of variation in the challenges northern youths have been exposed to and these has stretched over two decades.



ACF's Intervention



To identify major youth issues be-devilling young people in Northern Nigeria with a view to outlining recommendations and solutions; To conceptualise the framework for Northern youth participation in National and international development agenda and, initiate a consolidated and harmonised movement that will unite all youth-led organisations in Northern Nigeria, the Stakeholders of Arewa Consultative Forum (ACF) requested a select youth leaders to organize the First Northern Nigerian Youth Summit.   



Key Recommendations



-      Education should be prioritize so as to enhance human capital development index;

-      Fast-track job creation by leveraging on opportunities in the agro-allied sector to reduce the surging rate of unemployment and the widening poverty gap;

-      Educational curriculum should be reviewed and improved upon to accommodate moral instructions with social value in view;

-      Promote ethics of religious tolerance to create an atmosphere of peaceful and inter-tribal cohesion; 

-      That the youth should support the government to draft a framework for the re-integration, rehabilitation and re-construction of the insurgents' ravaged North-east;

-      The youth should be encouraged to adequately participate in politics which in turn will foster inclusion and succession planning;

-      Girl-child education should be given priority;

-      Enhanced environmental management activity to ensure a standard public health should be the imperative mandate of individual states in Northern Nigeria

-      That a steering committee be put in place to synergize with the local organizing committee (LOC) to  ensure a working plan for youth development in Northern Nigeria .



In conclusion all the above recommendation were thoroughly deliberated upon in thematic clusters and resolutions were made on issues raised, these was carried out by delegate representatives of various northern youth groups present. It is thus imperative to note that decisions were reached by superior arguments emanating from well debated topics which gave the conference the desired credibility.

    

The conference had in attendance over 1000 young leaders of various youth interest groups across the region and was convened by the Chairman and the entire leadership board of the Arewa Consultative Forum (ACF).

Jonathan's government is the most corrupt govt in Nigeria's history- Dino Melaye

Posted: 15 May 2015 07:42 AM PDT

Is that so? Senator-elect, Dino Melaye,​ has alleged that the government of President Jonathan is the most corrupt in Nigeria's history. He made the allegation in a new interview with Premium Times.
"Jonathan is the promoter of corruption. I am telling you that the Government of Goodluck Ebele Azikiwe Jonathan is the most corrupt in Nigerian history but who we have as president-elect of this country today, Muhammadu Buhari, the man I see as the nemesis of corruption. I am an advocate of anti-corruption and for me if I enter office, I am going to do it more this time around. More importantly, now that we have a government that is going to have zero tolerance for corruption, we must as legislators carry out our functions from any form of sacrifice." he said

The BeyHive and Rihanna Navy come for Ciara on instagram

Posted: 15 May 2015 07:05 AM PDT

Beyonce and Rihanna's fans joined forces to attack Ciara after she said in an interview with The Guardian that the two singers are not her competition. Below is the article from The Guardian...
"Despite her success – 2010's Basic Instinct is the only one of her albums not to reach the US top5 – she's never become a household name like Rihanna or Beyoncé.
"You know what I think?" she asks, rhetorically. "Everything's about timing. I've had records just as big as those artists, I've had No 1 songs around the world. My biggest competition is me." That and her old label, perhaps. After Basic Instinct only reached No 44, she left LaFace/Jive, announcing on Facebook that they had not supported her enough. Her next album, Ciara, released on Epic, duly went to No 2. "There's no doubt in my mind how high up this train can go," she says calmly. "I faced those challenges. I don't see myself beneath Beyoncé and Jay Z; I don't see myself above them. I'm in my own world, hungry to grow."
After this segment of the interview circulated online, Ciara's Instagram page simultaneously erupted into swarms of bees and hundreds of anchors. See more photos after the cut...
