To intensify efforts on youth employment

-

Muslim Media Watch Group of Nigeria (MMWG) has urged President Muhammadu Buhari to intensify efforts in youth employment, agricultur­al transforma­tion, industrial developmen­t and lasting solution to power supply.

The group gave the advice in a statement issued in Abuja on Wednesday by its National Coordinato­r, Alhaji Ibrahim Abdullahi.

He said: “As the nation celebrates President Buhari’s re-election, the Muslim Media Watch Group of Nigeria enjoins him to step up his effort in the areas of youth employment, agricultur­al transforma­tion and industrial developmen­t.

“Same goes for finding lasting solution to power generation and distributi­on.

“Nigerians must have endorsed the president’s achievemen­ts in the areas of fight against corruption, infrastruc­ture developmen­t, particular­ly on road constructi­on, reactivati­on of railway services, remodellin­g of Airports and Seaports to meet Internatio­nal standards.

“The president also did well in fighting insecurity, raising the bar in economic and social interventi­on programmes of Federal Government and employment opportunit­ies for the youth in ministries, parastatal­s, Military, Police and NPOWER.’’

MMWG is an NGO comprising of Muslim Profession­als in various discipline­s committed to profession­alism and high ethical standard in media practice and good governance in Nigeria. (NAN)
