In the words of Marcus Tullius Cicero, “Gratitude is not only the greatest of virtues but the parent of all others.” In the light of the above assertion and being mindful of the words of William Shakespeare, "how sharper than a serpent's tooth it is to have a thankless child", I wish to humbly express my unalloyed gratitude and immense happiness for the successful celebration of the International Youth Day 2020.
My first gratitude goes to the Almighty God, in whom I live and boast, who made the day possible and the event successful, even amidst all odds.
To His Imperial Majesty (His Majestic Youthfulness), the Ooni of Ife and the Royal Father of the Nigerian Youth; I am quite short of words to express how grateful I am for your unimaginable kind gestures. You hosted the event and added extra flavour to it, not minding the short notice of the request. You have proven that you are indeed the "Royal Father of the Nigerian Youth". You challenged the Nigerian Youth, during your edifying royal speech, and you even proffered the best panacea to the challenge, of which the leadership of the National Youth Council of Nigeria (NYCN) has taken up the charge. Your Majesty, "I am very grateful".
To the indefatigable, ever dogged, innovative and digital Minister of Youth and Sports Development, Hon. Sunday Dare; I appreciate you so much for your unflinching support and unwavering zeal for the overall development of the Nigerian Youth. Thank you for the collaboration in seeing to the success of this year's International Youth Day celebration. I equally appreciate the Permanent Secretary, all the Directors of the Ministry, especially the Director of NSM, and all the staff of the Federal Ministry of Youth and Sports Development for the unswerving and overwhelming support that saw to the success of the event. I am indeed grateful.
To the "Mother of Nigerian Youth", the charming, gorgeous and philanthropic "Golden Queen", Dr. Mrs. Elizabeth Jack-Rich Tein (Founder of Elizabeth Jack-Rich Aid Foundation); my gratitude to you is immeasurable. I cannot thank you enough for your continued support. I thank you in a special way for opting to sponsor the proposed TV reality show that will be powered by National Youth Council of Nigeria (NYCN), as recommended by His Imperial Majesty. You are indeed a caring and kind-hearted mother.
My sincere gratitude goes to the amiable and trailblazer Governor of Osun state and to the Youthful Commissioner for Youth and Sports development, Osun state. Thank you for your immeasurable support and for being there.
I extend my heartfelt gratitude to Ambassador Prince. Sir, for all your continued support, I am very grateful.
I appreciate all the traditional rulers and dignitaries that graced the event whom, for want of space, I cannot enumerate your names here. You all are indeed the "friends of the Nigerian Youth".
I appreciate, in a special way, the NYCN family - a family I cherish so much. My special thanks to the members of the National Executive Council of NYCN, the Stakeholders, the State Chairmen, the Voluntary Youth Organizations (VYOs) who worked tirelessly to see to the success of this year's epoch-making event. I owe you all a selfless service and results-oriented leadership. I appreciate your unfettered collaboration and support.
To the Honorable Speaker of the Nigeria Youth Parliament (NYP) and all the Parliamentarians that collaborated in making the event an epoch-making event, I immensely appreciate your efforts and sacrifices.
To all those who worked behind the scene to ensure that the event was smooth and successful; I pour out my heart of gratitude to you all. Thank you so much. Let's do it again by next year, in a more grandiose way.
May God bless us all and keep opening doors of overall development for the Nigerian Youth. May the efforts we put in, for the betterment of the Youth Constituency and our beloved Nation at large, yield bountiful fruits.

N75 Billion Youth Investment Fund: NYCN President, Sukubo commends President Buhari and Minister of Youth Development – Sunday Dare
…... Urges the youth to take good advantage of the opportunity
The National Youth Council of Nigeria (NYCN) commends President Muhammdu Buhari and the Minister of Youth and Sports Development, Hon. Sunday Dare for the 75 billion naira - Nigeria Youth Intervention Fund (NYIF), approved by the Federal Executive Council (FEC) on Wednesday 22nd July, 2020.
NYCN President, Amb. Sukubo Sara-Igbe Sukubo in a statement he personally signed, Wednesday urged the over 85 million Nigeria Youth to take good advantage of this opportunity and uplift not just their living standard, but to turn around the economy of Nigeria.
Amb. Sukubo explained that the just approved 75 billion naira fund came at the most appropriate time. It is a known fact that the COVID -19 pandemic has impacted negatively on the lives of many Nigerian Youth. Many Youth are out of business, some have lost their jobs while hopes of thousands of our youth expecting support from family and friends have been dashed as a result of the pandemic. So there is no better time than now.
President Buhari has rekindled the hope of a common man in his administration’s determination to move Nigeria forward.
We are proud that President Muhammdu Buhari has once again confirmed that he his not just the grand patron of NYCN but also the father of Nigerian Youths at large.. It is known to us that most of the policies and programmes of this administration are for the benefits of the youths.
With NPower Scheme for the youths, Anchor Borrower Programme for the youths, Youths Agriculture Intervention Programmes, 774, 000 Special Works Recruitment, signing of the not too young to run act, appointments and inclusion of youths in government among others, Nigeria youths will forever be grateful to President Muhammdu Buhari. No President in the history of Nigeria has ever done this much for Nigeria youths. We commend this administration for all these.
On the other hand, we also commend our dogged Minister of Youth and Sports Development, Hon. Sunday Dare for all his effort towards uplifting the lives of Nigeria Youths. Under his reign as Minister in few months, Nigeria youth have witnessed many positive changes and development.
While we at NYCN pledge our continuous undiluted support to support President Muhammdu Buhari’s administration and the Minister of Youths and Sport Development, Sunday Dare to take Nigeria Youths to the promise land and to put an end to joblessness of our youths, like Oliver Twist we charge the President not to relent and to continue to empower the youths for the development of Nigeria.
To the youths, the President has challenged us to proof our capacity; Nigeria youths with genuine business ideas should take this opportunity to become employers of labor. They should as a matter of urgency and in the interest of their love ones access the credit facilities and fund their ideas, innovations and also support their enterprise.
The ‘youth bank’ is an initiative that if fully utilize and effectively monitored will reduce poverty, crime rate, alarming rate of unemployment among our youths and it will as a matter of fact curb some of these social vices we are confronted with.
Finally, NYCN urge the ministry of youths and other relevant stakeholders to fast track the processes and create and enabling environment for deserving youths to tap from this laudable opportunity.
Congratulations, Nigerian Youth President!
History is made, Amb Sukubo officially takes over Nigerian Youth House, Abuja
. . . In presence of all former factional Presidents
On behalf of my family, the KYC Executives and entire youths of Kalabari, home and abroad, I congratulate our leader, the Nigerian Youth President, Amb Sukubo Saraigbe Sukubo on the occasion of the official handover of the Nigerian Youth House in Abuja to you.
I also commend Comr. Bello Shagari and the other former factional leaders of the NYCN for the sacrifices you have made to ensure peace returned to the Nigerian apex youth body.
I call on youths across the country to support the leadership of Amb. Sukubo and pray God to lead him as he pilots the affairs of young Nigerians.
Once again, congratulations, Mr. President!!!
G. I. Madodoye
President-General.
