The National Youth Council of Nigeria (NYCN) has lauded the Governor of Kano State, Abdullahi Ganduje for appointing Comrade Kabiru Ado Lakwaya, the Chairman of NYCN, Kano State chapter as the Commissioner For Youth & Sports Development.
Ganduje recently created the Ministry in order to appoint a youth as a commissioner to oversee youth and sports development in the State.
A statement by the NYCN President, Bello Shagari, said the development came as a result of support from the leadership of NYCN at a courtesy call arranged by the Deputy Governor, Dr. Nasir Gawuna.
“We appealed to Governor Ganduje for a political appointment for our Chairman to ensure Youth Inclusion at the cabinet level, because we believe in the capacity of Comrade Lakwaya and the his ability to take Kano Youths to The Next Level and the Governor obliged.
“We therefore want to thank Governor Ganduje for heeding to our calls as he has always done,” he noted.
NYCN also commended the deputy governor for the support. “We appeal to other Governors who have made promises to the Nigerian youth to fulfil,” it noted.
