A Benin-based group, Youth Awareness on Migration, Immigration, Development and Reintegration (IYAMIDR), is organising a one day sensitisation symposium that will discuss the current security challenges in the country.
The theme of the symposium that will start today (Tuesday) is “Neighbourhood Watch through Grass roots Mobilisation; a Panacea to Security Challenges in Nigeria.
In a statement signed by chairman of the organising committee, Comrade Solomon Okoduwa, Edo State governor, Mr Godwin Obaseki, is expected to deliver the keynote address, while the deputy speaker of the Edo State House of Assembly, Hon Mrs Elizabeth Ativie, will be the Mother of the Day.
According to Okoduwa, “the youths are the most viable driving force of Nigeria’s political process, thus, they can constitute a threat to national stability if allowed to drift, remain unemployed, misguided and constrained to negatively exercise their energy, resourcefulness, creativity and impatience.”
He listed the objectives of the symposium to include the creation of awareness on security situation in Nigeria and the need to x-ray community policing and it imperatives in Nigeria security system amongst others.
