“Being
proactive is a pillar of spiritual growth and meaningful development” – Eli
Landa
The society is characterized by endless chronicles
of hopeless situations that are breaking the news by the day. The common
patrimonies in the land no longer ingratiate the innovative minds of the coming
generations. The mania for mediocrity has eroded every sense of distinction and
exceptionality from the youths that are considered to be our assets and our future. The unprecedented ignominy of
unemployment, underemployment and rising delinquency amongst the youths have
been of overarching concern of generational leaders.
RELEVANT POST: How Yinka Fasuyi Plans to Champion the Cause of Ijesa Youths Development and Empowerment Using Vocational & Entrepreneurial Development
In the midst of all these innuendos, the Asiwaju of Ijesaland; Asiwaju Yinka Fasuyi FNIM,
FIMC,FCIRM,FNITD,JP precipitated the need for empowering the
youths of Ijesaland by providing a succor
to the endless misery occasioned by the perennial diffusion of
despondency among the youths in our
society. The birth of Ijesa Youth Development Initiative kicked-off on Wednesday,
7th September, 2022 with the Maiden Consultative Forum at Asiwaju
Yinka Fasuyi’s residence in Ilesa having in attendance the Royal Fathers from
the six (6) Local Government Areas and the Youth leaders from all the six (6)
LGAs.
The acceptable truism that ‘doing the best at this moment puts you in
the best place for the next moment’ occasioned by the Asiwaju of Ijesaland; Asiwaju Yinka Fasuyi prompted the Royal
Fathers on that momentous day to make unanimous commitments of supporting the
youths in provision of lands for agricultural purpose. The Asiwaju of Ijesaland without concealment back the burning-desire to
promulgate the developmental agenda for the future of Ijesaland initiated the Ijesa Youths Development Fund with a
promise to release the SEED CAPITAL in the sum of Twelve Million Naira (NGN 12,000,000) to the Ijesa Youth Forum (IYF) for the
implementation of the empowerment program across the six (6) Local Government
Areas in Ijesaland. A NGN50,000
monthly secretariat allowance for IYF national and the six (6) LGAs for the operational effectiveness in
achieving limitless results is also given.
Asiwaju Yinka Fasuyi
believes that at the core of youth empowerment is the belief that young people
are capable of incredible things. This electrified his
undaunted obligation in fulfilling his promise which came to pass today, Wednesday, 19th October, 2022
when the sum of Twelve Million Naira (NGN12,000,000)
was released at the rate of (NGN2,000,000)
each to
support each of the Ijesa Youth Forum (IYF) in the six (6) LGAs of Ijesaland
under the auspices of Ijesa Youths
Development Fund that Asiwaju Yinka Fasuyi helped Ijesa Youth Forum (IYF)
to establish. This is indeed the renascence of great things to come in
Ijesaland.
When young people have exposure to inspiring ideas
and opportunities and the tools to build their confidence – they can take on
anything and everything. Asiwaju Yinka Fasuyi fulfilled his promise of giving NGN12,000,000 to Ijesa Youth Forum
(IYF) inorder to spur the youths in Ijesaland to think-out-of-the-box and to redefine their
future by being vehemently creative, ardently innovative and interminably
enterprising for the upliftment of Ijesaland.
THANK YOU ASIWAJU
YINKA FASUYI!!!
