No need for Youths to celebrate youth day without empowerment- YALI

unemployed youthYoung Leaders African initiative (YALI) says there is no need for youths to celebrate youth day when government has failed to empower them.

YALI Executive Director Andrew Nthewewe said no one should condemn youths who have decided to shun this year’s youth day celebration because the majority of the youth feel frustrated because government has sidelined them in many activities.

Mr. Nthewewe said government has failed to address the many challenges young people are facing such as high levels of unemployment as top priority.

He said government should come up with a clear strategy of how they will create employment for young people and empower them.

Mr Nthewewe said from the time PF government to power they have not had a clear strategy to empower young people.

Wednesday, 12th March marks the commemoration of youth day in the country.
