BACK2STREET INITIATIVE

The National Youth Council of Nigeria yesterday stormed Ikeja Division with a powerful grassroots advocacy campaign aimed at promoting peace, responsible living, and active civic participation among youths.

The Back2Street Advocacy Tour took off at Onigbongbo LCDA, where the we engaged with the leadership of the council and emphasized the urgent need for youth involvement in nation-building.

Our team proceeded to Area F Police Division, strengthening collaboration with security agencies in the collective fight against crime, cultism, and drug-related activities within our communities.

In continuation of the advocacy, we paid homage to the palace of the Awuse of Onigbongbo Kingdom, appreciating the traditional institution for its role in preserving peace, unity, and moral values among the people.

Taking the message directly to the grassroots, we moved into the streets of Ikeja for direct engagement with youths and residents—spreading awareness and encouraging positive social values.

Our advocacy train also visited the Ikeja Local Government Secretariat and later the Ojodu LCDA Secretariat, where conversations centered on youth development, community engagement, and the importance of responsible citizenship.

Throughout the tour, the message remained loud and clear:

Say NO to Drug Abuse.
Say NO to Cultism.
Say YES to Voter Education and Participation.

The campaign reflects the unwavering commitment of the National Youth Council of Nigeria, Lagos State Chapter, headed by the chairman Engr. Adigun Ibrahim Olalekan to building a generation of informed, disciplined, and socially responsible young people across Lagos State.

Conversation That Brings Change

Yesterday, 6th Feb. 2026, at the Lagos Youth House, Akinwunmi Street, Alagomeji Yaba, the NYCN Lagos hosted the Maiden Edition of the Public Relations Officers’ Workshop in partnership with the Lagos Youth Development Institute (LYDI).

Public Relations Officers from different local governments were trained on Strategic Communications, Branding, Social Media Management, Public Communication Protocols, Creative Media, Ethical Leadership, Teamwork, Introduction To Photography amongst many others.

This workshop is the first of its kind in the history of Lagos and was born out through the foresight and thoughtfulness of the Public Relations Officer, Comr. Victor K Adogbajale to reposition Public Relations Officers across all local governments in Digital Age and in alignment with the P3+ Agenda (Professionalism, Productivity and Publicity) of the council headed by the state Chairman, Engr. Adigun Ibrahim Olalekan

Alongside the great facilitators was the Director General of the institute, Dr. Ademosu Jamiu who in his goodwill message encouraged the PROs to take the knowledge gained from the workshop very seriously.

Equipped with knowledge and corresponding skills were the participants of the event who were duly certified for their active participation.

The NYCN Lagos remains committed to empowering youths, fostering leadership and strengthening community values as we move forward together.
