Today,
H.E. President Joseph Nyuma Boakai Sr. Joseph Nyumah Boakai
Met with Youths Leader's in Liberia through the Presidential Youth Advisory Council, in the City of Buchanan for the Youth Town Hall Meeting.
This fellowship brought together hundreds of young Leaders from across Liberia.
‎
‎And so, said engagement formed part of the activities leading to Liberia's 179th Independence Day celebrations.
The event was attended by Vice President Jeremiah Kpan Koung, President Pro Tempore Nyonblee Karnga-Lawrence, cabinet ministers, and other senior government officials, who interacted directly with young people on issues affecting their lives nowadays and the future.
‎
‎During the program, Chairman of the Presidential Youth Advisory Council, Mandela S Gbollie, presented the Buchanan Youth Manifesto to the Government of Liberia.
The document consolidates recommendations and concerns raised by young people into practical proposals intended to guide government action on youth development.
‎
‎Therefore, in his keynote address, President Boakai outlined his administration's vision for empowering young people through education, entrepreneurship, and technical skills development.
Him also acknowledged that government alone cannot provide employment for every Liberian while quality Education, Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) can equip young people with the skills needed to create opportunities for themselves and support their families.
‎
‎The event concluded with an interactive question-and-answer session, allowing young leader like me to engage the President and his ministers directly on issues affecting our youthful generations nowadays.
Therefore, I'm delighted to say thanks to H. E. President JNB for giving us (youths leaders) said opportunity for growth.
I pray 🙏 that all our recommendations to him and his Team take proactive action.
Lastly, I say a very big thanks to the Chairman for the President Youth Advisory Council for his immense efforts to allow the young people's of Liberia interact with their President directly.🌼
