WELCOME ADDRESS BY NEBO OBINNA COLLINS AT THE SOUTH-EASTERN NIGERIA ZONAL LAUNCHING OF THE NIGERIA YOUTH AGENDA ON POLITICAL PARTICIPATION
PROTOCOLS
The
Representative of the Enugu State Ministry of Youth Devt.
Resident
Electoral Commissioner INEC Enugu.
Dr
Yunusa Tanko, IPAC National Chairman.
The
Representative of the National Orientation Agency.
SSA to
the Enugu State Governor on Youth.
Commissioner for Human Development and Poverty
Alleviation, Enugu
My name is
Nebo Obinna Collins the Enugu state coordinator Youth Alliance on Constitution
Review and Electoral Reforms. (YACORE).
Over the
years, there have been several meetings, summits, conferences, fora and
symposiums addressing the issue of youth inclusiveness in policy making and
decision taking at all levels of government. It is no longer news that the
youth made up the 60% of the Nigeria population, but at the same time the most
politically and economically marginalized group in the Nigeria population.
I am so
delighted this day that the Nigerian youth serving in political parties and
youth CSOs were able to bring themselves together for over 24 months with the
support of the UNDP/DGD engaged debates, roundtables and conferences all in a
bid to improve the quality of youth participation in electoral politics in the
build up to the 2015 general elections and beyond.
I am also
happy that the Nigeria Youth Agenda on Political Participation captured the
views and aspirations of young people irrespective of political, religious,
ethnic and sectional interests. This national document is a welcome development
for building the future of the Nigerian youth towards positive political
participation.
I thank God
that this is happening in my time, now I have a story to tell the younger
generation coming after us. We the young people of Enugu state and the
south-eastern Nigeria have accepted to join this moving train for the good of
our people and for the good of our nation.
I welcome
you all to Enugu (the coal city state).
Enjoy your
stay for this programme and enjoy the beautiful city we’ve got.

YOUTH LEADERSHIP SEMINAR AND CAPACITY BUILDING
TOPIC:
THE CHALLENGES AND THE WAY OUT.
ORGANIZED BY: NEW CWNTURY INITIATIVE
VENUE: ACE FOUNDATION BUILDING
COALCITY GARDEN ESTATE ENUGU.
June 7, 2014
PRESENTATION BY NEBO OBINNA COLLINS
Over the years, the African continent has been flooded with
many challenges especially the challenges facing the youth who are the leaders
of today. It has been so worrisome that many youth charters, youth policies and
youth declarations have been drafted but hardly find any being fully
implemented. It is equally challenging that many of our youth cannot define who
a youth is talk less of having a copy of the African Youth Charter and Nigeria
Youth policy. In this day, I wish we can learn our roles and responsibilities
as youth of this nation in order to participate effectively.
Coming to Enugu state, the level and the way youth are
participating in the social affairs is not encouraging owing to some factors
which include:
- Failed student movements which supposed to be a training ground for the youth, has now become a platform for political mobilization.
- Lack of capacity and awareness have turned most of our youth into vipers in the hands of the ruling class who can use them to strike their enemies anytime they want.
- Lack of right ideology has made a grown-up youth to speak without purpose and vision. For instance, I’ve encountered a group of youth whose sole aim is to make money which is beautiful but they have no concrete plan on how to make this money, no foundation. I asked how do you want to make this millions. They responded anyhow….. Lol! Please where in the world can anyhow be used as a source of income or career? Enugu state is a coal city state, why can’t those who studied engineering think of alternative way to electricity or even use the biotechnical means? It’s simply because they lack capacity.
I challenge the young people of
this noble state to be steadfast in reasoning and reason critically in order to
push forward. It is never an easy task but I believe the little we contribute
shall go a very long way in helping us. There many opportunities we can use to
stir-up our dreams but we must have the right mindset before we excel.
THE BEST YOU CAN BE IS JUST YOURSELF!!!!!!

EBOLA OUTBREAK
www.obinnacollinsnebo.wordpress.com
Kindly make use of this information:
US STATE DEPARTMENT EBOLA ALERT
In order to help our Embassy Community better understand some of the key points about the Ebola virus we have consulted with our medical specialists at the U S State Department and assembled this list of bullet points worded in plain language for easy comprehension. Our medical specialists remind everyone that they should be fo…llowing the guideline from the center for Disease Control and the World Health Organisation.
• The suspected reservoirs for Ebola are fruit bats.
• Transmission to humans is thought to originate from infected bats or primates that have become infected by bats.
• Undercooked infected bat and primate (bush) meat transmits the virus to humans.
• Human to human transmission is only achieved by physical contact with a person who is acutely and gravely ill from the Ebola virus or their body fluids.
• Transmission among humans is almost exclusively among caregiver family members or health care workers tending to the very ill.
• The virus is easily killed by contact with soap, bleach, sunlight, or drying. A washing machine will kill the virus in clothing saturated with infected body fluids.
• A person can incubate the virus without symptoms for 2-21 days, the average being 5-8 days before becoming ill. THEY ARE NOT CONTAGIOUS until they are acutely ill.
• Only when ill does the viral load express itself first in the blood and then in other bodily fluids (to include vomit, feces, urine, breast milk, semen and sweat).
• If you are walking around you are not infectious to others.
• There are documented cases from Kikwit, DRC of an Ebola outbreak in a village that had the custom of children never touching an ill adult. Children living for days in small one room huts with parents who died from Ebola did not become infected.
• You cannot contract Ebola by handling money, buying local bread or swimming in a pool.
• There is no medical reason to stop flights, close borders, restrict travel or close embassies, businesses or schools.
• As always practice good hand washing techniques, but you will not contract Ebola if you do not touch a dying person.
• US EMBASSY
Please share this information with your friends and families and try not to spread panic on social media.
Thanks
