Governor Obiano Appoints Chinedu Obidigwe SSA Youths, As He Tasks Youths, Students On Peace In Anambra
Youth Groups and Student Unions in
Anambra state were yesterday enjoined to embark on re-orientation and
mobilization exercise aimed at promoting and advancing good image of the state,
so said the new Senior Special Assistant to the Governor Willie Obiano on Youth
Mobilization, Comrade Chinedu Obidigwe.
Obidigwe spoke during a meeting with students union groups,
Anambra Youths organizations including National Youth Council of Nigeria,
Anambra state branch and Anambra Youths Assembly among others shortly after being
appointed by Obiano.
He wants a stop to the numerous fights
and destruction going on in parts of the state especially parks at Obosi,
Onitsha and environs and exhibit characters that would attract investors rather
than scar them away.
Obidigwe who was a former Council
Boss, Anambra East and Students Union activist advised youths and students to stay
away from frivolities and desist from all crimes by pursuing genuine calls and
duties in the interest of the state.
He warned against engaging in social
vices which he pointed out that most youths are running into as a means of
escapism adding that they should be objects of peace and unity rather than
destabilization.
Obidigwe said: our youths should
engage in attitudinal advocacy and help us turn around the rush to crime and
all kinds of social vices that it appears our youths are eager learning. They
should be peace advocates and shun to be used to destabilize the system especially
now that Governor Willie Obiano is stepping on the strong foundation laid by former Governor, Chief Peter Obi.
‘’And youth empowerment is dear to
the new administration of Governor Obiano to continue fro where Obi stopped and
what he needed to excel for the benefits of the youths is the peace initiatives
of the youths and not war and violence posture many have tried to paint our youths to be.
‘’If there is peace , our youths
would be the first to get the dividends of democracy and that would help in
stabilizing the polity…..’’.
