World Youth Festival: Nigerian Entrepreneur Calls for Greater Youth Inclusion in GovernanceYoung people must have a direct seat at the policymaking table, rather than having decisions made for them by older generations, Aliyu Ibrahim Salisu told Sputnik Africa on the sidelines of the World Youth Festival in Russia's Yekaterinburg.People aged 18-35 are already on the frontlines of education, industry, and societal challenges, he noted.Thus, his goal at the festival is to network with young leaders driving practical solutions in education, youth empowerment, and community development, the speaker emphasized."I'm here to meet with the young people and inform them that they are not the leaders of tomorrow, they are the leaders of today," Salisu pointed out.Subscribe to @sputnik_africa Sputnik Africa | X
