I Invite you to the National Youth Summit (Centenary Edition) - Dr. David

Anytime you want to address the problem of any nation, go to the young people who are the grassroot, because it is better to train a child than to amend an adult. The responsibility of changing Nigeria rests on us, the youth of Nigeria. We want to see those that are gifted in different areas and help them discover, develop and deploy them.

In National Youth Summit, what we do is to help equip and train those that will play major roles in shaping the NEW Nigeria. We want to build a new generation of value driven and Responsible Leaders that will think excellence, integrity, accountability, vision and passion for common good.

THE FUTURE OF NIGERIA BELONGS TO US, THE YOUNG PEOPLE OF NIGERIA!

I invite you to the Centenary Edition of the National Youth Summit.
