Kwara explains why youths shun public sector

Published

By Steve Oni, Ilorin

Kwara state government has given reasons why Nigerian youths are shying away from the public sector, saying many of them prefer to stay at the private sector where there are less issues with governance and politics.

Technical Assistant to Governor AbdulRaman Abdulrazaq on Investment, Kabir Shagaya, who stated this in Ilorin, the state capital, at the ‘Voices of Tomorrow’ he organised for the youths, attributed the current sharp division in the country to lack of a strong support chain and mentorship between the youths and leaders in the country.

Shagaya added that “there is a lot of heat across the country and people are divided along different lines calling for political solutions.

“Only a few are discussing the genuine issues of development and the role that each of us in society has to play in achieving national prosperity. The first point of education should be an understanding that everyone is in a position of influence. However, those who are privileged, especially accomplished youths in public and private sectors, have a higher responsibility and more is expected of them in setting an example of excellence.

“To ensure that our actions match our words, the summit is creating a platform for young Nigerians to brainstorm and
partner for socioeconomic growth of the nation.

“We need guidance as youths. And guidance in the right direction too. And if we do not find people to guide us we need to guide ourselves.”

The summit is themed “responsibilities and expectations that come with influence.”

He added that the problems of the country are embedded in the system the country is operating.

“As leaders of tomorrow, we need to start making the necessary changes needed to push us forward and move us to the next level. The summit is aimed to address the issues by helping the youths to understand the responsibilities that come with leadership positions, influence and having a voice that counts.

“We are a voice in different capacities and we all need to know how to use our voices appropriately to push our country forward.”

Engr. Bello Babayo Bello, FNSE, Executive Director (Networks) of the Niger Delta Power Holding Company (NDPHC), has extended his heartfelt congratulations to Vice President Senator Kashim Shettima, GCON, on his renomination as the Vice Presidential candidate for the 2027 general elections, alongside President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR.

In his message, Engr. Bello described the renomination as a beautiful affirmation of the Vice President’s enduring commitment to Nigeria’s unity, stability, and prosperity. He noted that Senator Shettima, himself a former Senator of the Federal Republic, has consistently embodied resilience, foresight, and a deep sense of responsibility, qualities that continue to inspire confidence across the nation.

“This renomination is a shining testament to your unwavering dedication to the Nigerian people,” Engr. Bello stated. “It reflects the trust of the party and the citizens in your ability to guide our country toward greater progress, peace, and prosperity. Your leadership has been a beacon of hope, and this endorsement is richly deserved.”

Engr. Bello further emphasized that Senator Shettima’s political journey has been marked by courage and service. From his tenure as Governor of Borno State to his current role as Vice President, he has consistently championed initiatives that address national challenges, foster economic growth, and promote inclusive development.

As a leader in the power sector, Engr. Bello highlighted the importance of visionary leadership in driving infrastructure and energy reforms. He expressed confidence that Senator Shettima’s continued role in government will further strengthen Nigeria’s capacity to deliver reliable power, expand opportunities, and improve the quality of life for millions of citizens.

He prayed that Almighty Allah grants the Vice President wisdom, strength, and good health to continue serving the nation with distinction. “May Allah bless your efforts, guide your decisions, and grant you success as you carry forward the responsibility of leadership,” he added.

The message concluded with a reaffirmation of goodwill and support: “Congratulations once again, Your Excellency. We look forward to your continued contributions to the peace, progress, and prosperity of Nigeria.”
