This leadership is entrusted with one task: to organize, mobilize, and fight for the interests of the African youth. Our programme is rooted in the struggle against youth unemployment, the collapse of education, drug abuse, and the deliberate political demobilization of our generation.
The time for waiting is over. The time for excuses is dead. We will build structures, wage ideological struggle, and confront every force that stands in the way of African youth liberation.
To the youth of Azania: organize where you are. The revolution is not a slogan. It is work, discipline, and sacrifice.
YOUTH SHALL RISE AGAINππ€π
