The Niger Delta Youth Coalition for Peace and Progress (NDYCPP) has applauded the various youth empowerment schemes of the Bayelsa Government.
\nThe coalition, in a statement in Bayelsa last Thursday signed by Pastor Olayinka Jude, its Acting National Chairman, said the development would drastically reduce youth restiveness and restored peace in the state.
\nJude listed agricultural training and skill acquisition as some of the empowerment schemes that would meaningfully engage the hitherto restive youths and redirect their minds to productive ventures.
\n\u201cWe commend Gov. Seriake Dickson for his persistent efforts in spreading the dividends of democracy to the electorate, most especially the youth with empowerment training initiatives and programmes.
\n\u201cWe urge youths in the state to take advantage of these empowerment programmes that will be of immense benefit to them, than doing things that would put them at the wrong side of the law.
\n\u201cWe call on youths of the state to join hands with the \u2019\u2019Restoration Government\u2019\u2019 to build an egalitarian society,\u2019\u2019 he said.
\nHe said with the empowerment schemes, \u2018\u2019peace and progress shall be the hallmark for defining indices of effective and good governance performance with available resources\u2019\u2019.
\nJude also expressed appreciation for Dickson\u2019s transparent management of the scarce financial resources accruing to the state.
\nHe noted that the monthly transparency briefing since the inception of the present administration in the state had drawn applause from observers within and outside Bayelsa.
\nJude further also said the transparency policy of the state reflected in the Paris club loan refunds.
\nHe said the transparent manner the refunds were disbursed among eight local government areas in the state showed that the governor was working.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
